Finding the right place

Unaware of its pursuer, the robot walked straight into the building, disappearing from Erik's sight.

<I'm finally here,> he thought, sighing relief. He only needed to get the hostage out now to finish the test. He still had to act as if he had no idea this place was holding the hostage he was tasked with rescuing.

The structure Erik found himself in front of possessed an understated but grand air about it. At first glance, there did not appear to be any significant differences between it and the other fake-aged architecture that made up the city. It was constructed from a stone with a sand-colored hue, and it sat there unobtrusively among its siblings.
