The door opened as the man took off his hat the man's face was revealed a metallic bronze coloured head the man made of metal.
The man walked over to the bed which had a lump of blanket on it the man reached his hand over to the lump of cloth. He grabbed the cloth. With a second the man retracted his and pulling the cloth off the bed.
Under where the blanket was a boy around 11 years old. He was wearing an over sized hoodie with ash black hair.
The man said in a metallic voice "Axle wake up."
The boy opened his eyes revealing crimson red eyes. The boy opened his mouth to reply and said.
"What is it Iron-side?"
The metal of the man's face looked down at the said.
"I told you to call me Mark you know Iron-side is my work name but never mind that I got something for you."
Axle sat up then asked "what do you want to give me?"
Mark looked and then replied "Your birthday present" as he was telling the boy he reached into his pocket and took out what looks like a metal eye.
Axle looked at the eye with complete confusion and asked "what is that?"
Mark gave a laugh that sounded like gears turning. The noise made Axle's skin crawl even after a year of knowing him.
Mark said "it's an [Artifact] for context it only a Tier-10 Marcus got it for me. Any way happy birthday and get up the boys are at the place we're going to eat."
Axle quickly said "um Mark what do I do with this?" Holding up the eye.
Mark replied "O ye just say think absorb it is just that simple."

Axle looked at the system his eyes opening even wider he said" it's a tier 9 artifact."
Mark's mechanical mouth dropped open his voice stuttered out "Start out with tier 9 you are stupidly lucky. Why do Marcus give me a tier 9!!! Did he know?"
Axle looked at Mark trying to figure out what just happened.
Axle then said "Mark shouldn't we go to where the boys are at?" To be honest to himself he had known that tier 9 artifacts were rare and how it could take years to upgrade from tier-10 to tier-9.
Then Axle said "So stop having a glitch attack and turn round so I can get dressed."
Mark came back to reality and then rotated looking at the the wall on the other side of the hut.
After 5 minutes Axle got dressed he was wearing some cargopants, the over sized hoodie and across his hip was a combat knife in a hilt.
Both Axle and Mark walked out of the door Axle turned around locked the door behind him. When Axle looked up to the sky and saw the dome that inclosed the entirely of city 8.
