Dicius accelerated to approach.
The SUV stops before the feet of Megatronus. The passenger-side door pops open, and a blue Minicon with kibble suggesting a construction-based alt-mode hopped out.
Dicius transformed and waved their hands at them.
The Minicon turns as the SUV converts to a stocky robot mode.
Dicius approached by them.

The two turn to face Dicius.
“Oh, hey there, fella,” the blue minicon says from behind her mouthplate. “What brings you to the plateau? Aside from the gorgeous view and the possibility of rediscovering the most hallowed place in the Commonwealth, of course.”
“I’ve seen your post on the website.” He said, showing them the post on a holographic screen above his forearm. “I decided to join you.”
The SUV shrugs.
“The more, the merrier,” she says.
“I am happy you accepted me. I am Dicius from Hecate.”
He said, raising his hand.
The SUV shakes it and smiles.
“I’m Four-wheel,” she introduces herself. She then points to her conjux. “And this is Quarry.”
Quarry waves.
“Nice to meet you, Four-Wheel and Qarry.”
He put his hands on his hips.
“Now, first thing first: do you have any proof about the exact location of the tomb?”
Quarry turns and gestures to the plateau.
“All anybody knows for sure is that the legends say the tomb is hidden somewhere in this big ol’ slab of metal,” she says. “Four-wheel and I have combed over this place twice over, and we’re certainly not the first bots to do so-”
“-But no-one’s ever found anything,” Four-wheel finishes. “And the Department of Antiquities won’t let anyone dig without some concrete evidence that the tomb is really here.”
“And do you have this concrete evidence?”
“No,” Quarry answers flatly.
“There must be something we’re missing,” Four-wheel says. “Maybe we’re not using the right equipment, or we’re not scanning for the right materials… it’s gotta be here, somewhere.”
“Well, what do you want to do now?”
Four-wheel hands Dicius ten small canisters.
“Just stick these into the ground, like so,” she says, pressing a button on the side. A spike deploys from one end, and Four-wheel jams it into the metal ground.
“You go right, we go left,” Quarry further explains. “We need to cover pretty much this whole side of the plateau, so space 'em out.”
“OK, I got it. But what are they?”
He said, activating the spike of one of them.
“Scanners,” Quarry explains. “X-ray, mineral composition, and the like.”
“Oh. OK.”
He said and walked to right.
Haliaetus hovered above, curious about the tomb, and what it may contain
