Mia sighs as she glances at one of her many screens. She'd picked up a new signal, apparently aimed at her. This happened with relative frequency, and she hoped it would be someone interesting this time. The last person had attempted to sell her internet, and she'd been forced to eviscerate him as a result. She perked up, however, when she identified the system as coming from a Wayfinder. There were so few of those that it would have to be something interesting - particularly seeing as how she had Micheal in her test area, already beginning to wake up.

Mia waved her hand a bit, as the message was transmitted to her directly through electric conduits in the Black Blood. Mia had gained the ability to recognize and decipher pulses of electric energy applied to her black blood, allowing her devices to communicate her in a fashion reminiscent of telepathy. Or, in this case, technopathy. It was most useful for gaining information over long distances, or if she didn't wish anyone to know of the information she had received.

Ven noticed a path opening up in front of him, as Mia shifted her torture chambers to the back of her construct, luring the Avatars of Agony away from the front. Ven would be able to approach with relative safety, provided Mia didn't move them back. In the construct itself, barely visible through the fog of eldritch energy, a large door opened to admit physical access.
