The humanoid continued on its busy work of nothing in particular.
Enlil could nearly
feel its gaze on her back as she left, however.
There were no major difficulties in returning, Enlil found. However, Stephen, Intemera, Griff, and Argus were gone. The door of the next room over was open, however.
Just at Enlil's feet, also, was a hole. The interior of the hole was dark, but Enlil could hear a voice - apparently Stephen's voice. He sounded angry.
"Just what the hell does it mean to not be stupid?! Can you tell me? Apparently not!"

The marching grew louder. Keir could now see a figurehead of soldiers appearing from the corner of the buildings. All carried rifles slung over their soldiers. However, none of them bore the familiar Infinity logo.
Just the same, they looked dangerous. They couldn't see him yet, but soon...

If Intemera and Griff decided to explore further, they would find that this 'apartment' had three separate rooms beyond this main one. One of the rooms was apparently a bathroom of some sort, though the fixtures were likely nothing they recognized.
Another of the rooms was large enough to be a bedroom. It had obviously been cleared out, though the outline of a bed remained on the floor.
The third room could have been a kitchen of some sort. There were counters and plates here. All of the plates were shattered. And while Intemera may have been distracted by the sight of the stains which were, yes, still present on the walls, Griff may have noticed the sharp edge of some sort of tool laying amidst a pile of shattered plates.
