[IC] Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Nimda>

For starters, the loophole in the logic, assuming you’re any sort of free thinker. If there were some guidelines in mind for the intention of your creation, surely it doesn’t really matter to you what they are?

@Audacious

I mean, I’d like to think so. But I don’t have any insight other than what they told me.

Being: What would the 'price' be? My life?

@souleaterfan320

I have no interest in your life or death. My tributes require a different sacrifice. Speak your desires, and I shall name their price.

<Snipped quote by System>

Maybe, is he just heavily damaged?

@Spiritblitz

I don’t know if there’s anything else at play. But it can’t hurt to try, right?

@Nimda

It’s also just not fair to you, to not get to know things about yourself.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Describing things in such few words really only leaves more questions. Liberation from mortality? Slavery? Life itself? A monotonous desk job?

@Melodious

Freedom... From your opressors.

Being: I want to defeat and eliminate all of Tier Five, either by a means of them joining me, or them dying out in general. Now... what's your price?

@souleaterfan320

And if I’m not oppressed?

@souleaterfan320

Ten million territories per head. An additional thirty million to be reserved up-front after the first return as a gesture of goodwill. Each return increases the per-head cost by one million. Territories may be claimed at any time.

Now you’re speaking my language.

@Valiance

I’m certain you have several of your own to share. And it appears that we have time.

@Audacious

Yeah... I just don’t want them to say something like “Oh, you’re going to die in twenty years and never knew about it.”

@Legend

You wouldn’t be wrong. The question is more of how much of my story would be a breach of privacy. Those stories tend to get… Messy.

@Nimda

I suppose. I doubt they would have designed something with that in mind though.

@Audacious

Oh, they didn’t design me. I was... “made” with foreign technology.

@Valiance

Privacy is but a function of identifiers and time. Strip either and it becomes a nonissue.

Being:
Thats a rightfully high price... but I can't do that. As much as I want them dead, that isnt my only goal. Territories are essential in my plan. I wish to provide existence with means to grow endlessly, to consistently improve without the threat of death and dispair.

@Melodious

.... Are you a Tier Five...?

Negotiations can be arranged. I'm authorized to adjust the terms.

Being:
I have to have control of existence. There is no other way. I will allow you to have territories, but it cannot be so much as to deter me from having existence in my hands.

@System

No, it cannot. But please keep searching, maybe we can find a version or prototype of that healing program.
