"Hah! About time I fought something other than simple scavengers and Angel-Tech goons. I suppose these are "Drones" or "Grunts", the real backbone of the Matriarch's little army she planned on conquering the universe with. I mean heck, I don't blame her, these gals gave me a run for my money. Unlike most soldiers I fought so far these ones don't run and scream as they chase you, nor do they take several steps forward and fire their gun, nah-nah, these ladies know how to DANCE. Toting multiple weapons at once, bunny hoppin' all around the place, fluttering around with a quick set of wings, dashin around, and actually using some sense of strategy. Usually coming in large groups of twenties, a baker's dozen, a couple hiding in a monster closet camping, and are backed up with other Love-Bot shells, they're the ultimate skirmisher in combat! My-my I haven't felt this alive fighting a foe in quite a while...

I honestly can't tell if it's my own brain being slowly taken over and absorbed by this suit of armor, I stole that I'm stuck in, but there is some sort of... Satisfaction when taking them down, and it's mostly me just smack talkin them! (I kinda wish they'd insult me back, but they're pretty silent all things considered.) I was an absolute PUB STOMPER back in my day before my mercenary work. I suppose despite the threat of our universe being destroyed, I gotta have something to grin about. Admittedly, I know I'm a bit overpowered in comparison to them. Like how I'm around... 7 Ft tall now? Got that real SASSY queen look to myself I'd say. These guys are only about 4 ft tall so they're short ladies with quite the temper! I noticed their stinger got a rocket propelled grenade in it, that stuff can really pierce through pure titanium walls! No wonder why the War of Love put the universe in the dark age, and they don't want Love-Bots comin' back. I'm just hoping once this little adventure is over, I can go back to some normalcy. I think I'm gunna buy a planet with all this money after I save the universe, retire on a farm somewhere.

I'm assured if the "Armor of the Queen" somehow did turn me fully into a Love-Bot, I guess the thing that scares me is that I don't know if I want to go back to that old self. A man thing of flesh and bone does not compare to the glory of metal, honey and ooze. I do not feel hindered in anyway, a sort of freeing of myself. How my joints are magnetized on all ends as I feel nothing but rivalry from the Matriarch. A deep part of my mind is screaming that I want to take the throne for myself. I'm not going to let that happen, but... The thought does scare me sometimes, so I hope you find this message soon doctor. I've attached a few files to this data-log and hopefully once I reach the surface, I can connect back to you and Caroline. I hope the new suit of armor doesn't scare yall, but I also assure you I'm not gone yet. Those Angel-Tech freaks did leave me for dead in that suit of armor and took my buddy away, and I doubt they got far. I'm going to try and find him and bring him back here if I can, even if I have to rip this entire planet apart to do it. Take care, --"

Hello everyone, thank you all for reading first of all! So, I got a bit more lore for ya!

I think it's kind of obvious that this takes place "during" the Boars of War arc unlike the last data log: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/56573498/

Wanting to leave things vague here, but give out small drips of information of what happened in their past and where it got them in the first place. Such as the "transformation" of them becoming a Love-Bot without fully realizing it yet, explaining a bit more about the Matriarch, that sort of stuff-

Until next time folks, seeya around!

I want to point out that this is an Epic Dark Fantasy setting with a lot of mythological and religious tones and that there is no real-life connection to any of these events, religions, characters and it is fully, grounded, in fantasy. There is no copyright infringement also intended to other forms of media as Skin to Scales is meant to be its own thing and something I've been working on for a very long time. This is the same setting where faith is a massive part of the magic system, and it is usually meant to have a very bright and colorful art style to help balance the tone.
