Slowly the brute's gaze roved over the relics that dotted the inside of the barn. While the artifacts - at least those on the surface - were all familiar to him, Valentine tried to take it all in as if it were new to him. What was Aki seeing? Or rather, what had he, Valentine, seen when he'd first laid eyes on this place? He'd been in the barn enough that the awe had worn off and with each visit to this place the barn had grown more and more mundane in his eyes; each visit, each memory, pushing down the amazement he'd once felt.

"Or a good place to hide from someone." The look that accompanied these words gave the King pause. Fleetingly he wondered just what that said about Aki, about his possible enemies, and then the tusked brute spoke again. "Or with someone." Chuckling, Valentine pushed back as Aki bumped his shoulder. What Aki didn't know was that Valentine had "hidden" with someone in here before and really, that just made it funnier. Bragging just a little he shot Aki a sly look before commenting, "Indeed it is."

Valentine mmhm'ed when Aki stated that all in all the barn made a pretty good shelter. It really did. Sure, it was flawed, but so were the dens that might cave in or flood during a heavy rain. If necessary the whole pack could hunker down inside the structure; there was more than enough space to hold them all. Of course, should the thing finally fall down, the whole pack could be wiped out in one go, so there was that.

Following Aki's lead Valentine zeroed in the big metal relic. He stopped once he was in front of what he assumed was the front. Not that any of the thing made sense or looked like a face. Really, he considered it the front because it just happened looked less like a butt than the other end. "It does, doesn't it? I've often wondered what it is; why it's here; how it got here. And I'm afraid time hasn't gotten me any closer to an answer either. Imperium's had this land for awhile now and I still haven't the slightest idea."
