Ambient: Steel Watch Foundry, Lab Level

"I smell death and decay. We're near cadaver preparation, aren't we? Poor bastards are shipped in from all over the Realms. Most come from a fellow called Balthazar by way of Moonrise Towers."

Conversation: Control Centre "Antechamber"
The following lines from Zanner are interspersed between other character dialogue lines.

"Wait, Elevated gyroscopes, triple-set quadropecs. No - it can't be."

"I hear it through the floor - powerful. Indestructible. The ultimate Watcher - the Titan."

"It shames me to admit this but you must face this beast of Gondian folly alone - I would be crushed in an instant."

"When it raises its shields, strike it with every scrap of magic and might you posess - and pray to Gond that it does not fire upon you. Good luck, my friend."
