When the second door shut, the gravity had shifted perpendicular to the external environment of the titan, causing Seeker to reorient themself upon entry. Seeker now floated in a great room that seemed to take up the majority of the interior of the object. The walls of the room were different from the external opaque black stone. They were of jagged glass glowing a brilliant white from elements buried beneath.
A figure slowly floated in from an unidentifiable opening in the surface. The being was tall and slender. It had a similar "upper" body build to Seeker's remembrance of the forerunner masters so long ago. But at such a point, the similarities ended. The creature kept itself engulfed in a blinding sheath of light, suppressing Seeker's ability to get much more detail from its limited reference to the visible spectrum. Seeker wanted to see more.
The being retracted slightly as Seeker shifted, causing them to halt as well.
Two more of these beings moved into view from a corner of the great room. They traveled faster than the first one and were eager to approach Seeker.
You can hear my thoughts, can you not? I speak to you in thanks for your sparing of my life.
The beings did not respond. Their "heads" did not even seem to be looking at Seeker, but they were observing the sentinel nonetheless.
Suddenly, an object appeared from the same corner that the other two beings approached from. The object was an opaque monolithic box seemingly composed of the same stone as the external hull. The object slowly moved towards Seeker before finally stopping just below the sentinel's chassis.
The first being lifted its arm, the tip of which opening into a seven pronged star. An orifice in the center of these seven "fingers" released a gaseous material which moved itself into a patterned ring, forming intricate splashing designs that melded with the primary structure. The being then thrusted its active arm forward, causing the floating artwork to rush towards Seeker and disperse against the enforcer in a puff of smoke.
The cube beneath Seeker rushed upwards and smashed into their internal components, melding into the chassis to become irremovable. The sentinel was pushed by some invisible force back out the door from which they came and into the atmosphere of the titan. They lost consciousness once more as they fell to the ground below.
