===Prologue: A Last Burial=== | |||
The prologue opens with an [[Artificial Intelligence]] dragging corpses across an alien landscape. Five bodies lie in the sand, casualties from a devastating ship explosion that claimed numerous other lives. The AI, having taken a physical body with humanoid features through blue [[hardlight]] technology and alloy plates, resembling an [[Armiger]], uses a makeshift staff from ship wreckage to maintain mobility despite damage to one leg. It calculates it bears approximately 62.35% responsibility for the ship's destruction, though other factors contributed. | |||
While methodically burying the dead, the AI contemplates its existence, noting that its new physical form triggers ancient, darker memories it's not ready to confront, reflecting on its capacity for human-like emotions, particularly guilt and regret over the crew's deaths. "And I am still human. Am I not?," it ponders, contemplating about complex evolution beyond its original programming, reminiscent of theories by [[Forerunner]] theorist [[Humble-Through-Study]] about the advancement of consciousness. | |||
Having fashioned an antenna from the wreckage, it establishes a distress beacon and maintains patience, knowing rescue will eventually arrive. | |||
