The Golum hear her voice and for a moment it seemed to fidget like a Human would hearing a noise but not fully responding to the noise, being in the cistern for so long undoubtedly it had heard many noises and even maybe voice above it from humans and never been addressed at least in the last 200 years.

Madame and Sr. Grant looked at each other and thought about why the Golum wouldnt take notice of them even thought they did speak to it.

Sr. Grant spoke softly " Maybe it doesnt recognize us because we are not its Master?" he looked to Madame,.

Madame replied "Unlikely, as the original owner of the property would have had to be able to make the Golum stop after the task was completed, thought in this case there must have been another reason it stopped." she sigh and wiped her head as the cistern was a bit humid during the warmer day hours.

Sr. Grant had a thought and once again turned to Madame Marlane "Could the Golum have a specific name then? that it would respond to only if spoken?"

Madame, sigh again "No it isnt likely as Golums in general would have been thought of as a tool like anything else used in a Job or profession by both the one who crated it and as likely by those whom the Task it was sent for was employed."

Sr. Grant scratched his head "Hmmmm, if only we could talk more plainly to him"

Madame Marlane then spoke up, "Ah! he may not understand our Era's English"!

Sr. Grant agreed "Yes! he may plainly not be able to understand anything we say, in that what we are saying sounds like gibberish to him or not legible"

Madame Marlane pondered, "Maybe we can do this in a roundabout way?"

Madame Marlane motioned Sr. Grant back to the hole they dug to enter the cistern "If things go badly, leave immediately DO NOT TRY TO SAVE ME under any circumstances or the Golum may snap you in half like a twig"

Sr. Grant "I will not leave you even now, so go ahead and do whatever it is your going to and we will face this together"

Madame Marlane smiled making a mental note that he put himself in harms way for her "Okay, we will see what happens, but like I said if all goes badly make for the opening and get out right away"

Sr. Grant replied "Okay, even if I have to carry you over my shoulder"

Madame Marlane nodded and faced the Golum and began to speak picking her words carefully.
