The Dwarven terminator

Open on wiki ↗
event  Lava Pit ·  Events (all zones)
You see a large hole in the wall of the volcano that seems to be connected to the inner city. As you get closer, you hear an increasingly loud noise of chains and metal. Suddenly, the chains pull a large dwarven war machine out of the hole. The machine is quite broken, but somehow its core is still active and the machine is still running. It is clear that the war machine is hostile and that destroying it completely is the only way forward and out of the volcano. You have to decide quickly how to deal with it.
