You offer up shadow ring. The robot head rapidly swivels towards you, all

three arms reach out and grab shadow ring. You quickly swat them away and

throw shadow ring at the robot, which plucks it out of the air and throws it

in a hatch above the boiler.  A slight shudder vibrates through the machine

before a light clinking is heard as shadow ring is turned into 1 zinium.

lol, they didn't put a != offered item in the 'try to grab a random item' code
