She hesitates for a moment,mainly stateless by the normality of the question which takes her a second to answer.
[i]" Dirae Renoir...er Thankyou for letting me tag along."[/i]
At barely 5'5" and 110lbs she looks around, and feels decidedly outmatched by pretty much everyone she can see. She starts to doubt they will be able to find anything that fits her.

"It's our job. We have to protect pretty much anyone who isn't a demon."
-
She looks up, [i]" so what can you tell me about where I am, you mentioned Demons, I was wondering how it came to be that your in running battles with the chaos hordes?"[/i]
-
"This place is tainted by the warp. Demonic incursions happen everywhere around us. We have a base, it's absolutely secure, but there is still a danger. New people come in every day... that's why we send out patrols, to find them before something else does."
-
[i] " Well I hate to say it but I am somewhat relieved not to be the only one winding up here totally out of the blue. I would love to tell you more but I quite literally went to bed and woke up here. So I take it getting away isn't an option, it's just a matter of staying alive? "[/i] She keeps pace fairly easily considering, [i]" Is there a debriefing of any sort for new arrivals that tells us what is going on and what our options are?"[/i]
-
"Options? I'm afraid there isn't much for that. If you want to get involved in finding a solution, however, I suggest speaking to the Tempestor Prime, our commander."
-
[i]" Not quite sure what I can offer but I will certainly speak to him and see what I can do ! even if it's just stay out the way[/i] She continues alongside.
-
"Her. The Tempestor Prime is a woman."
-
She shrugs. [i]" Where I come from most commanders are referred to as Sir regardless of there sex , so its just a habit didn't mean anything by it."[/i]
-
[spoiler]you called her him, lol.[/spoiler] "Better call her Ma'am. Otherwise she might get offended. And you really don't want that..." They reach a massive metal gate. "We're here."
-
[i]" Fair enough I will keep that in mind."[/i] Dirae looks around unsure what to expect from her surroundings or the people she would meet here. Taking a long breath she looked around for this senior officer of the theirs."
-
[spoiler]sorry, I lost this notif[/spoiler] The massive metal door opened, revealing a gigantic room. It was kilometers wide, almost the size of an entire city block. Mounds of barren earth, dead vegetation and black skies filled the room, that you can only guess once served as an arena of sorts, where gigantic beings would do battle.
-
Dirae was visibly surprised by the size of the enclosure , whilst she could see a lot of the grounds she couldn't yet see am encampment or base of operations. So just continued to fall in beside the units CO.
-
At the center of the room rested the bulk of the base. Ferrocrete walls and fortifications stood, watchtowers high into the air of the building, searchlights sweeping the area around the base. This was more than just a camp, this was a true fortress.
-
The combination of the dim light and Dirae's small size meant that the fortress sort of loomed to life as she crested the rise in the centre of the area. It was obvious that something this substantial hadn't been created because of simple short term invasion. This thing must have stood for generations, which meant there was most likely no simple way to leave. As it was all she knew about where she was, was that despite the inconceivability of the possibility, that she was inside something, not on something, and that the thing she was inside of was living. Or parts of it were. There was a lot to take in and she really needed some answers.
-
"There's the base. If you have any questions, the closest thing you'll have as an answer will most likely be found there."
-
[i] Well that's a big place maybe some indication as to where I need to go would be a start.? Don't you guys stay there too ?"[/i]
-
"If you want to find the Tempestor, I suggest going for the Regimental Command office. That's were she always is." They begin to walk back towards the base.
-
[i]" You realise that's like telling a blind person 'it's over there' right? I am gonna assume your gonna be a little more specific once we get inside unless it's totally obvious."[/i] She looks up as they approach the place is massive and like everything here looks as though it was a mixture of organic grown and mechanically built. Unable to conceive what to expect when she gets inside , if it will be vast open spaces, or narrow halls and alleyways.
