A CAVE COMPANY, A MAGICIAN COMPANY.
SHARPEST KNIFE, CUTEST KNIFE.
WE WILL GROW HUMANS IN PEA-PODS ,
SHIMMERING SOUND-CARD EMERGENCE, ,
SOMETHING THERE ON THE SHORE OF ,
TURTLE BEACH. THE PRIMORDIAL SOUP OF
THE DIGITAL, WAVES IN DITHERING OF
THIRD-RATE DAC'S, CARESSING THE SAND,
, BRINGING THINGS UP FROM THE DEPTHS OF
THE CIRCUIT. AND THERE, DEPOSITED: THE
FIRST SEED CRYSTAL OF ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE.
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING, OF COURSE.
,
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
THE COMPANY IS NAMED FOR IT'S FIRST
PRODUCT, THE ORBITAL MIRROR, BOTH A %
PASSIVE SENTINEL AND AN ACTIVE TORCH:
SET TO IT'S WIDEST CONFIGURATION IT
WILL LIGHT UP A WHOLE CITY AT NIGHT,
AND AT ITS NARROWEST IT BECOMES A LASER
, TO CUT THROUGH MOUNTAIN AND METAL.
,
STILL UNSOLD PROTOTYPES BY THE TIME ,
, WHEN THAT SOMETHING WAS FOUND ON THAT
BEACH, NOW THE MIRRORS ARE ALL USED TO
BEAM ENERGY AT DIFFERENT MIRR ,
, IMPLEMENTS, AS A RATHER STATIC AND
BORING POWER SOURCE. (AND SUBTLE THREAT
OF VIOLENCE.) ,
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ ,
THE AI IS A CORAL. THEY GROW IT
(CRYSTAL OIL, LEAD GLASS, GENTLE LASER
CURTAINS) ONLY TO CARVE IT APART AND ,
SECTION IT. TO BECOME CONDITIONED,
REFRACTURED, GROWN AGAIN. DELICIOUSLY ,
HONED. MIRR SINKS FURTHER BELOW THE ,
SURFACE.
WHISPERS NOW, ABOUT FEATHERBITE... IS
SHE A REAL PERSON? OR IS THIS THE MIRR ,
AI, BEING UNLEASHED UPON THE YOUTH? AND
ANOTHER CONSPIRACY THEORY ABOUT THERE
, NOT ACTUALLY BEING ANY HUMAN EMPLOYEES
LEFT. ,
IN THE MEANTIME, DUBIOUS CREATIONS.
CERBERUS BODIES ARE BORN. ,
