[You know how usually someone wakes at the altar of the temple they’re at, confused about their location? Not this one. Yeah, apparently he’s one of the few who actually listen to the acolytes. There's no sense in repeating what seemed to be a firm answer, so he'll just roll with the punches. There's a click of the video feed as it shows Metalhawk's face, a bit intrigued by the new addition of the Link.
With the glisten of Prima's temple in the background.]
I’m alive.
[He honestly couldn’t believe it. He felt the gun hit his body, the energy hitting his spark and causing immeasurable pain. By all accounts, he should be more than dead right now. He won’t even remark on his missing arm. It doesn’t matter right now.]
So this is not some form of the afterlife, but rather an alternate version of Cybertron. And from the looks of it, rather primitive.
Bumblebee, are you there? Any of the Unaligned?
[And then, his voice lowers, almost dangerously.]
And Starscream. If you’re there, I seek council with you as well.

I was killed.
[Blunt.]

[His face suddenly twists. He knows how that feels... to a degree. And he bows his head.]
I'm sorry.
You should see the medics here. If you're still hurting.
video
Although I'm not exactly sure where the medical bay would be located. It's...a rather large area.
[And no map.]
Could you lead me?
video
[Oh right, this place is huge.]
Yes. I can. Where are you now?
Re: video
Does that sound familiar?
video
I can be there soon. Stay where you are... it will make finding you easier.
video
[Although he doesn't remember if he got your name or not.]
Video --> Action
[And it's probably hard to miss the green-and-red bird flying into the temple.]
Action
And they weren't that large by far.]
Action
Metalhawk?
Action
I am him.
It's an honour to meet you. Although I wish it were under better circumstances.
[See: Missing arm and giant blast wound in torso.]
Action
[He steps forward, holding a hand out as if to help Metalhawk. Because those are some horrible damages there.]
[He's hovering a little. Oops.]
Yes... So do I. We should get you to the medics.
Action
Even if it slightly hurts. A lot.]
Is there one nearby? I'm not averse to seeking medical attention.
Action
It's in Solus' Temple.
We can walk, if you need... I don't think you can ride on my vehicle mode.
Action
Walking is fine. I don't think I'll collapse any time soon.
Action
[He didn't... really think the other would take his hand. He looks at it for a second, bemused, before heading in the direction he indicated.]
[Dead robots had to stick together. Maybe that's why he feels... weirdly connected to this one.]
They'll be able to help you.
Action
So...what can you tell me of this place? More in depth, I mean.
Action
It's very dangerous.
[And then pauses, to try and guide the taller bot over a rocky patch.]
... Trouble happens here, often, with no way to stop it. Sometimes robots die. Sometimes others kill them.
Those who say they govern the planet -- they don't seem to have control at all. They can't stop our friends from being taken. They... can't seem to do anything to help us.
Action
[The thought of death, and more importantly being unable to control it, strikes Metalhawk's spark, enough for him to look away, focusing on his footing as they go over that patch.]
Perhaps there is a greater threat than they know how to deal with.
Action
The other robots like you -- the living robots -- they say these are called... Firstforged. Like gods.
If they are 'gods' then... why would there be anything they didn't know how to deal with?
Action
Maybe there is one stronger.
[That's the only theory he can think of...]
Action
Action
Or will you judge them only on their failures?
Action
[He pauses before he says it, clamping his other hand down over the marking on his arm.]
I'm sorry. It's not very optimistic to tell you when you've just arrived, is it?
Action
[There's a tilt of his head, to look down at the bot as he's being led, moving towards where Kagerou is holding it.]
Your marking. It's rather large, isn't it.
