An overseer she was all too familiar with appeared beside her; light cyan with 4 appendages; it looked... desperate? It kept pointing towards where one of the many iterators she'd heard of was, Five Pebbles, the one she liked the most, sure Looks to the Moon was nice, but Five Pebbles just understood her, besides the language barrier. She called two other slugcats to her, one light red and littered with scars, and another that was smaller, and was dark green. "Hunter—" She dipped her head, "—and Wanderer, may you come with me to visit somebody?" She mewled, her voice gruff and hoarse as if her throat had significant burn damage. "I'm sure Five Pebbles' is fine Artificer." Hunter growled. "But his overseer seems desperate, I think we should visit him, incase he needs help." "Fine. Usual path or what? And this is his first time coming along." Hunter asked, gesturing towards Wanderer. "The usual, and I'm sure he'll be fine." Artificer bent down and nuzzled Wanderer.

His chamber was worse than it was last time... His puppet partially destroyed, one antennae broken, an arm missing, all of his wires cut, and many, many, many cuts, scrapes, cracks, and breaks. It was clear by how much of the Rot in his chamber it had got worse since the last time she visited him. Five Pebbles rolled a small pearl with a reddish, orange sheen to it towards Artificer. "Please... Give this to Seven Red Suns... Go North-West, they're the second-closest Can to mine. Please, I'm counting on you, my dutiful citizen..." Artificer had heard him in pain, but nothing compared to this, the sadness, weakness, and agony in his voice almost broke her, even if he was talking to her through the Mark of Communication. She stared at him before picking the reddish, orange pearl up and swallowing it, before crawling out of his chamber with Wanderer, and Hunter.

"Are you sure he'll be fine on his own? That Can is extremely far away...." Artificer whimpered, imagining all the horrible things that could go wrong. She raised Wanderer from a pup, she never could ever even dream of a life without them. "I'm sure he'll be fine, he made the journey from here to Five Pebbles, and if Spearmaster made it, he can too. You've raised him strong, he can defend himself, he can fight, he's got this." Hunter reassured Artificer, cupping her cheek with a paw as Artificer leaned into her touch.
