1. The Mysterious Signal
NARRATOR: Deep underground, where the sun never shines, lay the enormous city of Nerath.
Thousands of orange lights lit up metal bridges, old pipes and endless mechanical towers. Beneath them flowed beautiful turquoise rivers.
On one of the rusty pipes sat the little adventurer Oddy. In his hand he held the blue seal he had won at the mysterious thirteenth gate.
ODDY thoughtfully: We have the first seal, Pix. But where will we find the second one?
NARRATOR: Suddenly there was a cheerful robotic beep.
PIX excitedly: Beep-beep! Oddy! I've picked up a very old signal!
ODDY curiously: Where is it coming from?
PIX: From an abandoned part of the underground!
NARRATOR: Pix projected a blue holographic map into the air. In the middle of an unknown city glowed the symbol of a cogwheel.
ODDY surprised: Pix! That's one of the symbols of the thirteenth gate!
PIX proudly: Exactly! The second seal could be right there!
ODDY: What's that place called?
PIX mysteriously: The City of Forgotten Machines.
ODDY determined: Then let's go!
PIX carefully: Erm... just one tiny thing.
ODDY: What?
PIX quietly: Nobody has come back from there for decades.
ODDY frightened: PIX! COULDN'T YOU HAVE TOLD ME THAT SOONER?!
PIX laughing: I could! But it would have spoiled the surprise!
NARRATOR: And so Oddy and Pix set off. But they had no idea that someone was already waiting for them.
