The tubes send their passengers flying, and shortly after Trena lands with a solid thump, followed by Andrei. After a moment's rest, they notice that they've landed on a pile of broken bits of biomechanoid--an entire platoon of guards. They're all deactivated now, and in front of them stands the doors to an area marked "Special Detentions Area." Or, at least, the doors used to stand there. Now they kind of lay there, broken and burnt, and just inside there are roughly ten men and women, all dressed in the bright purple garb of Imperial Heretics.

"Trena?" one of them asks.


Meanwhile....


Corbin's leg begins to sizzle with agony as the acid takes the brunt of its effect, and the guard moves to aim again. Behind him, Robyn stands, currently out of the machine's aim and perfectly capable of entering the vent.
