I was on my way to a cauldron when I ran across some bandits. Didn't know they were until they started attacking me. I defeated them and took their heavy weapon and figured I'd need it on the way to the cauldron.
On the way I find some braves who need help fighting machines because their back up brought the wrong ammo supply box. So I decide to help them.
After some intense fights with my heavy weapon, we notice someone from the group disappeared with some valuable supplies. They ask me to go find him.
I track his trail with my focus and find him not too far away. He explains that he's in debt and needs these supplies to save him from his debtors.
As he explains that, his neck is sliced by a new type of machine. It goes invisible and attacks you with remote controlled bombs and moves like a panther. A really thrilling machine I hadn't seen until just then during this Side quest,
I defeat the machine and return the supplies. Now I'm back on my way to the cauldron, but not without being paid handsomely
