After a time of resting and some time to her thoughts, Alcarith transformed back into her human form. The transformation was much more brief than the change to dragon form. Her dragon form gave off a vibrant flash of light and then her human form stood in its place. It didn't take any effort to change back.
Alcarith walks over to one of the machines and examined it. The vehicle had a single seat with with protective glass in a similar shape to the wind shield of a motorcycle. The control panel had a steering wheel, numerous gauges, and countless knobs, levers, and sliders. The vehicle had two short legs, currently bent and at a height of 4 feet tall. On the front were a few head lights and a large weapon barrel.
Alcarith examined the vehicle fairly well, but was still amazed with what an eldritch race created. She's seen more sophisticated vehicles, but knew little aside from the more basic, user-friendly functions meant for civilian use. This vehicle in front of her, and the other two nearby were combat vehicles, not particularly built for leisurely travel.
The vehicles eventually got boring to look at and Alcarith turned towards the elevator. It wasn't an elevator in an office building or at a shopping mall. It was a simple elevator shaft with a door, the walls were lined with diamond-weaved grates, and the actually elevator itself wasn't an elevator cart but a simple metal floor that could be suspended and lowered.
Alcarith approached the door, pressed the nearby button marked with an arrow pointing up, and the door opened. Alcarith walked in and saw that there was only one button in the car. It was another button with an "up" arrow. Alcarith pressed it, the door closed, and the elevator ascended.
