Outsider Observation Report - Log 2 Content . Here I am again , writing down my thoughts on the Clockwork City . If I had to hazard a guess , the Clockwork Apostles weren ' t too keen on my last report . But you know , I don ' t think they ' re really keen on me period . So to keep in their good graces , and out of the Radius , I thought I ' d share some more " objective " observations . I ' m currently living in this city called the Brass Fortress . It really does look like a fortress from the outside , with high walls and big gates . There is no getting in unless you ' re invited , but it isn ' t really needed for things like war parties or bandits . There ' s no one here that isn ' t registered . I mean , perhaps there ' s some poor souls lost in the wastelands that surround the Brass Fortress , known as the Radius . I ' m guessing they ' re not registered or anything , but I ' m not rightfully sure . Least I ' m safe here . Well , all right , truthfully ? Not everywhere in Brass Fortress is safe . In fact there are quite a few " off - limits " areas here filled with rather nasty fabricants and these rather testy factotums . Fabricants by the way are these strange creatures that are a mixture of metal and flesh . Gave me nightmares the first time I saw one . From what I can understand they were created by Sotha Sil ? Not sure why . They scare the ever living daylights out of me though . And the factotums , well , they ' re like metal people . They got heads and arms and everything , but they ' re simpler than living folk . They have tasks they do and they just do them . They ' ll answer questions sometimes ? It ' s odd , because they act like people . Well , like very devoted servants . Who only think and talk about serving . And they ' re very keen on completing whatever task they ' ve been set to do . They ' re interesting enough , I suppose . You know , the Clockwork Apostles are pretty simple too in their interests . They really enjoy inventing oddities and discovering odd bits of information . They ' re real keen on Sotha Sil and everything he does . Got a giant statue of him right in the square . They quote his sermons a whole awful lot to . Doesn ' t make much sense to me , but at least they ' re not cultists or anything . Now here ' s a funny thing that I ' m still wrapping my head around . These seemingly very reason driven individuals believe that the Princes and Daedra don ' t rightfully exist . Right . I mean , I ' ve seen a clannfear rip men apart . Pretty sure it was real . I guess it ' s a little easier to believe that though , given that there doesn ' t seem to be any Daedra here . Not sure why ? I guess Sotha Sil is just particularly vigilant about keeping them out . Now it isn ' t all Apostles this and Sotha Sil that here in Brass Fortress . In fact , most of the citizens are just normal folk like myself . Well , as normal as anyone can be growing up in this strange land . There ' s the merchants and the craftsmen , blacksmiths and chefs . They even have their own slums , though that came as a surprise . They call the folks there Tarnished , unwanted vagabonds and whatnot . I ' ve talked to a few though and they seem a decent lot . Then again , most of the poor folk I ' ve met are . I can tell you that no matter your lot in this city you never go hungry . You see they got this gruel here called nutriment paste . Consistency of porridge , and taste of … well , not much taste to speak of . You can add spices or toppings to make it a bit more palatable , but given that everything is made of metal here , that ' s a bit hard to come by . Got to cut it short here . More tests . Hopefully they won ' t make me run so much in this one . I ' ll make sure to keep writing down my thoughts . Helps me make sense of everything that ' s happening .
