--- Kat ---
With no better ideas, they decided to 'say hello' in what was hopefully a polite way. Kat raised an uncertain boot over the thick webbing before stepping down heavily, once, twice, three times before retracting her foot and waiting. They could all hear the scrabbling of legs for a few moments before the small door was stretched open and… a puppet walked out.
Whatever was controlling the puppet wasn't making any attempt to disguise its artificial nature. It was held up by thick web strings that were going into each limb along with a few for the head and one for the torso. The puppet sort of floated down towards them until it reached the halfway mark. As it was approaching Kat could just barely making out the faint webbing that served as an alarm system being lifted up into the air.
