I have a few questions if anyone is willing to answer.

[havethestrength]

Why did it speak?

[11calls]

There was an incident where an outside moss got in and infected it through a different AI that was here at the time. The AI ended up killing and kidnapping a lot of us, and trying to turn the rest of the population here against us too.

It didn't remember the reason for pulling us here, but it was trying to figure out how to properly send us home to the universe and time that we were taken from.

[havethestrength]

So it has no control over anything.

[11calls]

Not really. No. But also in the same way it kind of has control over everything. The communication devices in our heads, the power, the water, the air... all of it.

[havethestrength]

A daunting thought.

[11calls]

Just a little bit of one. And before you ask the next question: if we try and remove the devices, we die.

[havethestrength]

I assumed they were cybernetic devices.

[11calls]

Yeah, they're definitely hardwired to the brain.

Having them removed isn't... pleasant.

[Not that she knows from first hand experience or anything.]

[havethestrength]

Have people tried?

[11calls]

People have done it. I’ve had it done to me.

[havethestrength]

And?

[11calls]

I died. So did everyone else it happened too.

[havethestrength]

I see. Is there a way you can prevent someone from taking it out?

[There are a few people he expects would do that.]

[11calls]

Most people don't want to take it out. This was... a special circumstance. It's not the sort of thing that happens all the time here.

[havethestrength]

But if they did.

[11calls]

Not that I know of. Are you... concerned about that?

[havethestrength]

There is.

[11calls]

I see. Is it... anyone who's here now?

[havethestrength]

No. They might never show up.

[11calls]

Should you like. Maybe keep a warning list about them somewhere. Just in case you something does happen to you?

[havethestrength]

Her name is Rey.

[11calls]

Okay. Rey.

[Alex just repeats it for a moment, and then she can't help but to ask:]

Is she like... a villain back in your world or something?

[havethestrength]

She's a hero.

[11calls]

Then...

[Alex just lets her voice trail off for a moment, and there's a question in her silence without there meaning to be one.]

[havethestrength]

She's also stubborn.
