He felt compelled to help the defenseless human, most likely put in here only to die because of his master's sick sense of revenge. Unfairness was one of the only things that this terrible slave truly abhorred.

[color=6ecff6][i]"But be careful..."[/i][/color], the metal behemoth continued to advise, [color=6ecff6][i]"He just told you about poison"[/i][/color].
