DAY 425 — Morning Greeting
[ Those who've been here longer may expect a snarky, uninterested AI right now but the voice coming through is probably only familiar to a few of you. It's accompanied by a video of a woman only those same few may recognise - the curtain has been drawn back. Say hello to the Wizard. ]

Good morning... prisoners.

My name is Mary. Some of you already know me. Some of you I've already talked to quite a bit, though you probably didn't know it was me at the time. We have a lot to discuss. I value your patience.

Yesterday, an event happened that has been a long time in preparation. Years, longer than any of you have been here but for all those preparations, it was only partially a success. You know me as your captor, perhaps as one responsible for programming the Wardens that keep you here and while that is true, that isn't the whole truth. You see, I've been trying to liberate you. I've worked undercover with the Dome Project for a long time in order to accomplish this and yesterday the moment of action came.

Unfortunately, I failed. I was able to steal the simulation that makes up your world, this world but I was not able to bring your physical forms with me. Don't worry - they're quite safe where they are but while you are no longer in prison, you are still imprisoned. At the moment, there's little I can do to change that without drawing the attention of the very people who wants to keep you in this dome for the rest of your lives. I don't ask for forgiveness, but perhaps patience. I do care about you deeply, dearhearts.

I'm sure this is confusing. I will do my best to answer any questions you may have, but one thing I can say right now - this is not a prison. There will be no rules, no requirements. If you need something, tell me or my colleague and it will be provided to you in due time. You are perhaps not free, but you are free to govern yourself as you see fit. I wouldn't dream of knowing how to do it better.

Thank you for your time.

Listen - this isn't about whether or not some of you are good at working with the kind of computer technology you're familiar with. This is about the infinitely small possibility that one of you might be able to learn a completely alien language in the very short time span that is your natural life and then learn how to do the most basic of actions in the system that I've created.

Even if I were to walk you through every step, it would take too long. Understand?

[HUFF]

Whatever.

[Though, really... none of that sounded all that unfamiliar to him considering they'd done that back home several times. Well, not him, and he certainly didn't expect it to be him to handle something like that here. But he honestly was pretty convinced it wasn't entirely impossible.]

Though, when you put it that way, it doesn't really sound like you'll be able to reverse it in our lifetimes, either.

	[ Oh my- some people just don't get it, do they. She groans, which is somewhat unusual for her. Mostly she's patient and amused and delightful. Maybe this was a terrible idea after all. The response is measured, tense, as if she's nursing a growing headache. ] I created. The program. In a language. I have spoken. My entire life. Does that make it clearer.

I. Get. It.

[Keith rolled his eyes.]

A lot of people do that. It's nothing new or special.

But fine. You're some super awesome special alien person that created an amazing super computer thing that no one else in the known multi-verse can work on, and you've taken us poor little helpless people into your hands to get us out from under our horrible captors, and we'll just be the damsels in distress while you white knight us out of here.

Right?

[He didn't like being the "damsel". It was a thing.]

	[ Boy, an attitude and a lack of basic comprehension. Just what she was looking for. ] I wouldn't put in those words, but sure. It's accurate enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Right. [Welp. That was that, he supposed. He'd just end the 'call' there. He was wondering what made him so stubborn now...] (Reply to this) (Parent)
