Dlanor A. Knox - Charon - Outer City
The Inquisitor stopped in her tracks once realizing that another had took aim at her and fired. She was prepared to take care of those incoming bullets, but didn't have to waste the precious energy of the Red and Blue Keys as the Ashen One managed to deflect the bullets away with his shield. By that time however, Dlanor realized that this was the T-800 model that was specifically programmed to assist the Coalition, given that a single scan from him brought to light that she was a Coalition member. At least with that, their small skirmish had ended, and that they could focus on the impending robot threat developing in the Undercity.
"Let us make haste to the undercity's DEPTHS. I believe that those individuals from moments ago noticed something amiss with the machinery present THERE."
Knowing that the potential target was needed to be disposed of before the situation escalates with the surrounding robots, Dlanor made it clear that there was no time to waste, and advanced downwards in the Undercity.
Charon - Undercity
Just as others were arriving to see that Shadow was already engaging with some of the attacking robots, it appeared as if the robots weren't that smart or adaptive when it came to combat. Combined with the sudden gunfire from the T-800, the red-eyed machines were in full panic, attacking erratically with no direction to their movements. Most likely attacking themselves in response.
"S... scary... so s... scary..."
"Must... kill... must... die..."
"Do what she... says..."
Those were the notable words said from the panicking robots, almost becoming an eerie rhythm of robotic voices repeating the same lines over and over again. Surely with this type of behavior on these strange robots, it wouldn't take long to get rid of them before they do any real damage...
"Report: No matches to the data of unit 9S detected in available map regions, and will attempt a scan until said data is found. Warning: A mass of detected hostile machine lifeform signals located above current position. Proposal: Engage these enemies with ranged attacks."
The Pod would report on it's scannings and attempt to do so again to find 9S, but also warn the group that was already there or just arriving to the Undercity that there was incoming airborne machines. These appeared the same as the other robots on the ground, except it looked like they were forcefully jammed into a hover-like system to all them flight and what appeared to be artillery fire. The airborne artillery that these robots had shot out energy orbs, which gave off the notion of a magical substance and not a scientifically generated substance.
"KILL FOR THE QUEEN, AND WE SHALL BECOME GODS!"
"BECOME AS GODS! BECOME AS GODS!"
These airborne robots were more expressive through their chants and less fearful than their grounded counterparts, of which the grounded robots were hysterically killing each other off out of apparent fear, and thus the airborne robots were letting loose a mess of magical artillery fire at the supposed intruding group. Just as the Pod said, ranged attacks looked like the better strategy here if possible for those present.

The Ashen One - Undercity
(Volume warning.)
He never imagined that metal could be made into intelligent beings. This unknown type of enemy filled him with fear, something that he hasn't felt in a very long time. He would not let his fear get the best of him, however. If he could get the Lords of Cinder onto their thrones, he could destroy any number of robots that got in his way. He put his shield on his back and brought out a Sorcerer's Staff. It was time to demonstrate the power that he has accumulated over the course of many years.
The amount of souls that he has absorbed allowed him to be a knight, a pyromancer, a sorcerer, a cleric...
He could be anything.
"Such terrible creatures. Thou shalt feel the wrath of this Unkindled ash."
He prepared to cast Soul Stream.
Some wind-like sounds could be heard as a large amount of blue energy surrounded him and surged into his staff.
After about five seconds, a huge cylindrical beam of bright energy was shot upward, aimed at the approaching flying robots. This discharge of energy was quite loud, and could possibly be heard a mile away.
This beam of energy would destroy energy orbs and robots that were unlucky enough to be caught in the blast. The question was, would the robots be clever enough to avoid this?
