ITT: We are in an Eternal Engine

-leans over a railing and looks down.-

That's a lot of gears.

-Carrying a giant spanner-

Meh, nothing one of these things can't jam.

-Drops it over the side into the gears-

How did we get in here?

"Beautiful"

-A tear appears in his eyes-

"I never would expect to see such a collection of machinery in one place."

(I'm assuming you mean the level style? If so, I am SO TEMPTED to reference the namer.)

-gets crushed by a smashing hallway trap of doom-

-respawns-

-gets crushed again-

-respawns again-

-gets crushed again-

What is an Eternal Engine? (looks at the clockwork of gears, a perpetual motion machine? That breaks the law of Thermodynamics...? Hmmm, I wonder what Issac would think of this? (gets crushed by a gear from engine)

Tick tock-

What could even use this much power? Or is this contraption gratuitous?

Lets try to escape!

Why even build something this large? In fact, why even use clockwork technology in this day and a- (stabbed)

"Imagine for a moment that an object so large so massive it is able to function endlessly with nil loss in energy. An object so large it forms its own gravity well and therefore maintains it's own energy loop.

Now as to the purpose of this machine is beyond me but I assume it must be a clock of some sort"

-Takes a moment to look in awe at the machine-

"But boy is she a beauty"

AHHH! My phone gets no reception here so I can't call OSHA and get this... THING shut down!

-slips and falls-

AHHHHH!!!! ~CRUNCH~

-Respawns-

Still, who built this and where did they find all these giant gears? Whoever did this had a lot of spare time on their hands, and I can relate to that.

I dunno, but it's awesome! I can crack walnuts without having to exert myself too much!

-places a walnut between two gears, and promptly gets my arms stuck-

GAHHH!!! THEE PAIN!!!! ~CRUNCH~

Well, didn't you respawn or something? Hey... let me try suicide!

(jumps up on the rails)

If I'm not back again this time tomorrow, carry on. Carry on, as if nothing really matters.

(throws herself off, catching herself on the gears and is slowly grinded by them before respawning)

That hurt.

-respawns in the air above the gear pit-

SON OF A BI...

~Crunch~

-Respawns-

-searches for a way out, doesn't find one, tries climbing the gears like a dumbass.-

We should provide a sacrifice to the machine gods! and by that, I mean shove Sirnoob between two gears and find a way to keep him alive, just to see what happens.

-appears in a flash of orange light, colourful, glowy cogs falling around me before dispersing-

Greetings! I am Eventua, the Mechanist of Time! I built this vast place... -disappears in another flash-

-bzzt-

-A slightly duller flash of light, and I appear- And I'm the bloke who keeps all these gears running. But do I get a mention? Noooo, the big boss shows up to stroke his own ego and leaves out his loyal subordinate...

-bzzt-

-Grabs Phoenixor and tosses him over the railing.-

Accept my sacrifice, oh mighty machine gods!

-I reappear in the same spot, looking extremely irritated- Why do you people always do that?
