Alastor's expression darkened after he heard someone speak while not seeing the automaton before him open its mouth.
While automatons could talk without moving their lips depending on the design of their outer frame, the intricate design of the one before him suggested that it could speak through its mouth with no difficulty. He also sensed the voice did not come from the automaton but from someone else.
Alastor would not have thought too much about who spoke just now if not for something he said.
Void Halfling.
