the engineer

Metal from the Dragon's Throat was the last of what he needed, and his eyes nearly glowed with delight. A brief stint of illness gave way to health, and he breathed raggedly, bounding around the metal frame and eager to give life to his second monster. He was Dr. Frankenstein, a creator, birth giver. The only skill he lacked was the ability to imbue a soul, but that was unnecessary. His behemoths were flawless in their inability to feel or discern, and he grinned, white teeth flashing from beneath black, velvety lips.

The stallion bounded around his creation, metal pieces melting and forging in midair as he attached them to the pre-existing frame. His tail swung around his haunches like that of a foal, excitement making his very spine tingle. How long had he been waiting for this day? Far too long, it seemed. Ulrik cared not about the audience, and if they wanted to watch his brilliance come to life, he would welcome it gladly. The stallion stepped back, and now the frame matched his operating brother.

Large, silver plates rippled along the monster's sides, the frame roughly like that of an equine. Electronics ran along the inside spine, massive hydraulic hoses hissing to mechanical limbs. Ulrik shivered in delight, using the final bit of his magic to breath life into the sentinel. He exhaled and a whirring noise began to build. Creaking and a delicate whine followed as it powered up, small lights flickering on. The whining noise stopped when the beast moved, a massive hoof shaking the ground.

And it was done.

Their two guards were functional.

"Beautiful..." he murmured, staring up at the beasts in awe.

"Dangerous is more fitting, I believe." Aviya's words were smooth as she sided the stallion that towered above her. She had been watching the engineer work his magic from afar and for quite some time. It never ceased to amaze her the power that her unicorn counterparts held, and she thrived on it. She admired the power and devoured it like a hungry beast on a rampage. She turned her head and breathed in his scent some--it was metallic and rugged like the hulking creatures (if one could call them such) that he created. Silvery blue eyes looked up to his carefully and beautifully flecked eyes and she nodded, looking back to the sentinels. "You have aided our home well." She spoke frankly and simply, unawares of how to truly give voice to what she felt. Through her heartless exterior--and interior--there was a part of her that cared (in her twisted way) for those that were as dedicated as she, and Ulrik happening to be one of those. In his moment, she revelled in his coltish excitement and awe at the display of his abilities.

The doctor's daughter had known the Engineer for the majority of her life. He was a participant in the most righteous of causes--a band she was born as royalty into--and one she desperately yearned to rise from the ashes. In knowing him, Aviya always thought him a very capable stallion, one she could admire with his strength and tenacity for his work. She turned to him again, slightly, though glanced up at him in a sideways manner. "Tell me how it works?" She asked, tail giving a flick towards him. She hoped it brushed over his hind leg and sparked him to conversation.
