The Steampunk Boiler Room

Wolfgang grabbed the injured boy in his arms, flexed his powerful legs, and jumped onto the base of the behemoth, a ledge about 10 feet across that circled the behemoth. At this close a range the noise was horrendous.

He shoved the boy into a corner of the giant machine that seemed safe, then ran around the base searching for the maintenance hatch that must inevitably exist. All machinery needs access to its innards for repairs and adjustments. But he ended up back where he started without finding a single door.

Unfortunately, he seemed to have triggered some protective mechanism of the behemoth. Clockwork humanoids were beginning to appear and they all seemed focused on him. They came clanking around the base from both directions.

But where did they come from? he thought. There has to be a doorway.
