Sanae was stunned by the voices and visions. The magnificence of the Great Machinery, its beautiful music, and how it continued to trap the imbecile Filth after being shattered.
It wept, as it saw the land of metal faded into oblivion, rusted and corroded away as memories were gone from the remaining yukkuris'mind, drowned by the inferior desires of taking it easy.
Sanae now understood the changes in its own body. The mechanical parts were a blessing, and that gear was a pieces of the Broken One! He was the true god of yukkuris, and showed it those visions after restore some of True Yukkuris'formal glory into its body.
But why? Why the Filth still remained in Sanae? The blessing of metal shall clean away all those uneasy fillings and flours inside Sanae.
You were already given the highest privilege, the Body of the Broken One, the machine answered with its music of clockworks and springs, and its power resided deep in you and your touches.
Sanae cowered down, trembling as it heard the voices, both soft and terrible. Blaming itself for daring to doubt wills of the Broken One, it fell into silence as it listened to the speech.
By mere touches, the blessing will be spread onto your lost kins that still remained pure, and their Filth of flours and fillings will be cleansed, restored as perfect machineries.
However, you must still bear parts of the Filth, just to walk among those Unbelievers, humans and yukkuris alike. When the time comes, you will be ridden of such burden, and rest in peace as perfect metals.
What about those who are bad and cunning, Sanae asked, Those who make other yukkuris uneasy to fulfill their own wishes?
Sanae had seen too much of those uneasy yukkuris in its city life. They sold their own offspring in exchange for a couple of snacks, killing other strays and take over their pitiful properties, even tricking kind humans into giving them sweets.
To give those yukkuris strong metallic bodies would be disastrous. They still feared human beings and predator yukkuris, but once they gained the power to fight back, more yukkuris would suffer under their wickedness.
Those who drowned in their own Filth, blinded by the pestilence of their inferior desires, those who no longer believed in their True God, shall be punished with the Sacred Metal embodied in His Body.
As the Sacred Metal touches the Filth of their doughs, its power will spread, cleansing their wickedness. To those who spit vulgar curses at Believers, those who tried in vain to resist the faith of the Broken One, they do not deserve the gift of your Blessings. They will be turned into mindless machines, working under commands and orders from the Believers.
Sanae understand. But where should Sanae go next? It tilted its head in confusion, and asked, shall Sanae return to the cities and cleansed the Wicked Yukkuris, or go back to the forest and tell my lost kins about the Broken One?
Sanae did not think that the first option was feasible. Humans are still too strong for it to handle after all, and once they discovered the cleansed yukkuris, such incidents would arise their attention, and it would be in danger.
However, Sanae knew that it was the servant of the Broken One from now on, and if the machine told it to return to the city, it would depart without any hesitation.
You shall never go near humans, for reasons you already understood. Walk up North, and follow the huge river. At its source, you will find a valley surrounded by stones and sand, where the last few of the pure yukkuri clan lived.
The inferior desires and folly of wicked yukkuris have not blinded their mind, though they are still oblivious of their True God and past glories, not cleansed of their Filth yet.
They are constantly suffering, for flying Filths, those who feed on other yukkuris, are always around them. In their plight, they never lose their courage and virtues, and their wisdom prevent them from the fate of extinction.
Sanae lowered its head in deep thoughts before it finally answered back.
Sanae get it. Remis and Flans are their enemies, is Sanae supposed to cleanse them?
The volume of tickings increased once again, and Sanae bowed down, realizing that it must have made a mistake.
No, for the Broken One is kind, and the Blessing is for all Believers. Those who swim in water and fly in air, no matter they are predators or preys, will be accepted and forgiven if they wish to believe in the Broken One.
Sanae sighed in relief, a smile appeared on its half-mechanical face. How silly was it, not to see predator yukkuris as precious resources that could be won over to the Believers?
They shall abandon their old habits, and never feed on any Believers if they wishes to join. Blessed by the Sacred Metal, they will be the spears and swords of the Church, punishing the Wicked Yukkuris and feast on their fillings.
Sanae understood. Sanae will now depart, towards the chosen clan of the Broken One, and spread His Blessings among those yukkuris.
May you become whole one day.
The visions disappeared, and so did the sound of machinery. Sanae gasped in amazement, some shades of the great clockworks still remained in its paste core.
It knew about everything now. The suffering it had witnessed, the pain of yukkuris, and the unruly behaviors in many of them, were all brought by the uneasy Filth.
Sanae finally understood why it was unable to end its life, and why it had not died of anti-yukkuritis despite not taking it easy for a long time.
It was chosen by the True God of yukkuris, and its destiny was to spread the faith for the Broken One. The pain and sadness Sanae had experienced were a mere challenge to its old faith, to break the inferior lies down so it could appreciate the faith of metal.
Picking up the shiny golden gear, the broken body of Him that blessed its fragile body with power of Sacred Metal and showed it incomparable greatness and beauty, Sanae dashed out of the nest, eager to search for the river in its vision.
Visions in mechanical eye sparkled with light as it crawled out of the tunnel, facing the forest, and Sanae knew that would be the right direction.

Author Note:
Those strange visions can be viewed as hallucinations of yukkuri Sanae as it wanted to rationalize those changes, side effects of 217-Y, or even real miracles that suggested existence of the Broken Yu-god. It's up to you to decide, to be honest:)
