Smokey the Warforge wants you to help prevent bridge fires

ALEC and Lucy watch the scene of horror unfold in their visual display. Drago has already gone over the edge, wrapped in the burning remnants of the bridge they were both standing on. Everything is moving in slow motion as Vincent's hand reaches out for him, he head rushed forward to try to help Drago, when the Fire monk set the bridge on fire... Literally.

His first instinct is to reach out and grab the monk as he is falling over the cliff after Drago, but his screen is flashing the warning to not attempt this do to momentum and weight calculations. He still also does this due to his gut instinct being to help the teammate. He doesn't know these people that well though, and regardless of that, he's got a responsibility to Lucy. He needs to keep the body safe for her to remain safe, so he constantly has to be making calculations of risk with an extra factor that his instincts don't normally account for.

He doesn't have any memory of how fast he would normally be reacting to things, so it's hard to say if this is actually slowing him down, but it certainly feels like it is. He's also not entirely sure of the accuracy of the built in algorithmic assessments. It seemed to be erring on the side of caution, when it came to its calculations regarding what the body could handle. He honestly thinks if he had pushed it to the limit and been just a little lucky, he could have saved Vincent.

Instead, he watched as the monk was dragged over the cliff edge. He couldn't see what his descent entailed, but by the time he was able to look over the side, Vincent was floating down the speeding river unconscious among the still sizzling debris of the bridge. Drago miraculously, had survived following down while appearing to be wrapped in the burning bridge. He was already scaling his way back up the cliff knife clenched in his teeth, and murderous look in his eye as eye methodically climbed his way back up towards the rock pedestal that now only had one exit. That exit was blocked by about 6 different hostiles that he hadn't even yet had a chance to identify.

He wasn't sure if the look of violent intention on Drago's face was intended for those hostiles or actually for the fire monk, who had just probably killed the shadow monk. The fire monk...Who was supposed to be on their side.

After they had found him in stuck in the mud, he had been told the harrowing story of how on the way there, the fire monk had for no reason at all attracted the attention of some trolls who ended up eating another member of the team! Now, he had just watched that same monk set fire to a bridge that yes, did have some enemies on it, but also 2 of their team members. He had done this right after someone else had pointed out how flammable the bridges looked, and that everyone should hold off on maybe using any fire based attacks. It was almost as if the fire monk had responded directly to that statement with the burning of the bridge.

At this this point, it was causing issues with the Warforge's systems, and it kept highlighting the monk as a hostile. To make things even more hectic, he had Lucy asking about that the message to eliminate the target again, and he was having a hard time explaining to her how the fire monk was not a target they should be eliminating,

They managed to win the fight, but they could only watch helplessly as Vincent was swept down the river, the fire monks elemental following him for as long as it could into the distance.
