Hephaestus Cabin

## **Cabin9**

The entrance is like a vault door, circular, and of thick metal. It opens with a lot of gears turning and smoke hissing. It has shiny metal walls and metal slatted doors. It is noted for being unclean and messy, filled with junk and machines often.  There is a tunnel underneath it. The cabin is made of brick and has a smokestack sticking out of it, like a tiny factory or an oversized motor-home. The steel bunks are folded against the wall and have a digital control panel, blinking LED lights, glowing gems, and interlocking gears. A fire pole comes down from the second floor even though the cabin doesn't appear to have a second floor from the outside. A circular staircase leads down to the basement, power tools, an assortment of weapons, a workbench and a lot of scrap metal.
