Oh yes, be sure that if anyone had been from Chasma they would have recognized that voice.
Ah, how fortunate! It seems the chests were unlocked! Or...not precisely -- when Bradley approaches one of the chests, it lights up. While away it had seemed like a normal chest, if made of stone, but when he approached first it lighted up with thick, orange lines, which then changed to blue, the locking mechanism on the front opening up, allowing access.
Thankfully, that's not the only thing that's in this chest. There's also what seems to be some sort of mace. It doesn't seem too sturdy, but it's light and pointy, and it'll pack a punch for a while. What else could one ask of a temporary weapon? One chest remains to be opened! The other one lights up with orange lines now, shining bright.
Funny thing you said that, Sebastian -- right after Sheila picks up the parchment, the wisps in the air increase, forming a reddish fog enveloping the machine, electric sparks fly for a moment. The light in front of the automaton turns on, glowing blue, staring right at her! One of the flexible arms it has inches forward, making noises like scraping metal...! But it seems this particular automaton is in severe disrepair, degraded enough for this thing to not be able to move quickly -- not that it stops it from slowly crawling towards her, extending its arm, aiming for one of her legs to attempt to crush it in its grip! It's almost sad how slowly it moves -- but that doesn't change how it's beginning to drip a strange, oily, black and red liquid from the junctures of its articulations, giving it a very obviously unnatural air. Something's not alright with this environment you're in!

It just couldn't not happen.
