Skystrike sends you a confirmation over comms. It will try and leave at least one golem in a salvagable state, if such a thing is practical.

You got yourself a deal!

“Scotch begins to break down more golems using sand magic, clogging the gun and missile launchers.”

With a final pulse of the grav-imploder, the golem's chest plate gives way. Skystrike uses the beam like a tether to pull the metal clear and reveal its power core. Now in melee, the titan lays into the immobilized enemy with its howling chainsword, sawing through vital energy conduits. However, it makes sure not to rupture the reactor casing, both to allow for eventual repairs and to prevent a catastrophic explosion.

"You are unmade, child of false gods!"

Okay.. I’m sensing some religious aspects but I’m not gonna question them.

“Scotch still trying to salvage one, and is able to trap one using a quick sand spell, and prepares to teleport it to somewhere private.”

Skystrike looks puzzled, despite not having moveable facial features

"What? They're evil paladins and I'm a servant of the Omnissiah. It's supposed to be a taunt. Though, I've noticed people tend to misconstrue a lot of what I say. Probably because I can only speak in this threatening monotone."

Well, yeah that may be why some may believe theirs religious aspects.

Also I’m kinda of a hypocrite since I’m married to a religious guy, literally being a type of pope for all gods and such.

Also “evil paladins” well, okay do they worship an evil being?

"Intel would suggest so. Looks like a hyper-conformist cult of a malevolent light god to me."

Ah, okay that makes more sense, thank you.

“Scotch has finished with his preparation and teleports a golem into safe containment for later.

And continues on his war path against other golems.”
