Anton Chigurh: Don't put it in your pocket, sir. Don't put it in your pocket. It's your lucky quarter.

Gas Station Proprietor: Where do you want me to put it?

Anton Chigurh: Anywhere not in your pocket. Where it'll get mixed in with the others and become just a coin. Which it is.

The drone surveyed the dark landscape as Talos watched through the screen. The noise of the wind turbines would have masked any noises from below that the drone could have picked up. So, it was relying on sight alone. But even the sight was obscured in the darkness, only the lights of the turbines themselves helping to illuminate anything. Talos made a mental note that he needed to upgrade the drone with some form of night vision capabilities, something that would have definitely come in handy here.

Then suddenly, a much larger sound filled the air. The drone spun to see a helicopter down below, fast approaching. The wind blew the drone
far off course and Talos had to work hard to right it once again. The vehicle then headed out over the grass as the drone sat on a flat surface on top of one of the turbines. When it had gone far enough, it took to the skies once again. The camera panned straight down for a moment, and Talos stopped it right there. He could see something down by the base of the turbine, faintly.

Talos lowered the drone quietly to get a better view. It was two figures, seemingly, crouching. Once it reached a reasonable distance, the drone stuck itself to the trunk of the wind turbine facing downwards. This would be a good vantage point to see where these figures would go.

POSSIBLY INTERACTING WITH: @Reflection

They reached the exit, a huge set of doors which opened out onto a sea of alleys and buildings behind the facility. All his stolen loot gripped in his metal hands, or slung over his shoulder, he turned to Ziggy standing next to him.

"Hopefully I won't need to see you again. But let me present this question to you. Why are you content being their little lapdog? Their little weapon? You could be so much more. You should be ruling them, not taking their orders. You are superior to the humans in every way."

Then he nodded, and walked out, quickly vanishing into the jungle of concrete and brick. The city was a lot busier now, and he dodged the main streets to avoid getting seen. He couldn't get caught with all the loot he had just stolen, or even get noticed by someone who worked in law. They might follow him back to the warehouse. Then all the tech he had been building up for the last few years would all be lost. That would be a damned shame. Most other abandoned places in the city have been converted into living spaces, anyway, for the surplus human population. Irritating.

It was evening now, and Talos sat intently on a stool next to a desk. There was a small rat in a glass case, which he had caught in the corner of his warehouse. And then he had the crystal sample. He combined the two components, the rat convulsing and twitching as crystals popped up all over its body. How very interesting. The rat keeled over soon, very much dead. He almost felt sorry for the little thing. It wasn't human, it did nothing wrong really. But its death was necessary. He tucked the main crystal piece away in a secure glass case.

Suddenly, the TV playing as ambient noise in the background began to flicker again. Tattered pieces of news reports about heroes. More vague and revealing shots. Then, a code. He quickly paused the television. He could translate this code in under a minute. So, he did. Meet me where the wind blows. That was certainly an intriguing code. Where did the wind blow. He rewound the clip. A rotating sound. His mind put something together - the wind farm. There was one in the city, right towards the outskirts. But he didn't want to go all the way there. He didn't know what this was yet. But he had an idea.

He dug around in his tech stores for something, and soon found it. A very small camera drone that he had designed. Small, and very quick. He opened the window and sent the small thing out, being controlled by a screen which he held, which also showed the view. It reached the wind farm, searching around for signs of life.
