After the Archbishop was stabbed to death by a Mechanical Monk, everyone assumed automata would be banned from the church and clergy. Surprisingly the Pope lauded this execution for the carnal sins, and sodomy perpetrated by the Archbishop and deemed it divine intervention. Now he named Sigeric as a replacement for this imperative position. Derangement! As if der Enthaupter and the Regulator weren’t enough to fill the townsmen with dread, now we have killer mechanical monks and a heavy metal archbishop. Rumor has it that Sigeric is a human in a clever armor disguise; I have seen it up close and can’t really tell. The rise of the automata is here, God help us.
-Sir George Edmund Best, Commander of the last Human Crusades
