Anni was puzzled. "Why are you suddenly so interested in robots and stuff Kix? Anyway, for now it'd be quicker and easier to just go to the kitchen, and maybe we can get Somi too help us look around the stockyards later."

Somi replied to Sturg, "Sometimes a few of us come up to steal food, when we can't find enough to catch. But most of us don't want to upset the industrials; they mostly just leave us alone when we don't do anything. Paramites once tried to attack the factory and they just killed us all. I was a baby then, and a mudokon, the one we're looking for now, saved me." Somi had already spied on the kitchen and the cafeteria, and hadn't seen Anni. "It might take us a while to find her, so have patience."
