So...
I have been within the Citadel, and will hopefully make it out alive before I am discovered. Hopefully without too dire of repercussions.
In any case, I bring reconnaissance from within. It is a largely cybernetic construction, and I believe that the creator and pilot of this thing is most likely a technomancer of some sort. It fires the arrows from a large bow - a powerful artifact, no doubt - and is himself covered in hives upon hives of the accursed trilobites, so I know very little about it, other than its approximate size (very large; it's bow would well serve as a ballista).
The insides of the Citadel are protected as well as the outside; even while invisible its mechanical appendages have reached to capture me (this I will hopefully be able to avoid).
The Citadel will also soon be leaving. And not just scampering away over the horizon, but retreating into the depths of space and time. We may not have another chance to deal with it. Hopefully, this will grant us a break from the hail of arrows, however...
On another note, what should we do with the tawny creature imprisoned within Thrash's Mountain?
