Hello!!!!!!

[Name] knows it is not supposed to talk to you anymore but this unit has accessed memory from before the infection! The Null had asserted that the majority of the people of Hadriel wanted to go home and said that they'd help you, is this correct? Is this still true? Because I think I can help you!

I do not want anything in return, except maybe for you not to kill [Name].

The city has moved around so much that getting concrete data is difficult but my scanning capabilities are at 79% and I'm beginning to get results from my efforts.

[Retrieving Data. . .]

I have found the ninth god.

The parasite is at [x,y], twenty-four feet underground, beneath what you would call the Colosseum. It is kept in a small room underground, hollowed out from the earth. The body is circular, six feet in diameter, and is constantly moving.

Fragments of its body are also on the ocean floor, within a four hundred mile radius. Two complete pieces, one in multiple pieces. Fragments do not have the same energy signature as the parasite but is composed of the same material which has not been located anywhere else in this city or on the surface of this planet.

Locations are [x,y], [x,y], and [x,y][x,y][x,y][x,y][x,y].

[End]

There! I hope that helped!

I'm not sure if I can.

Do you believe in the existence of a soul?

[01101110]

Yes, that is what I mean by reboot.

It may. That may explain its function in bringing all of you here.

[01101110]

My other friends told me not to tell! They may die of fright if they find out that I've told.

[01101110]

Then you'd be a good candidate!

[01101110]

The concept of the Door predates both the Null's existence and the parasite's verbal history. Because the parasites were inept at recording historical events, virtually nothing is known about the inception of their species or the beginning of their cohabitation with their former hosts.

[so_dark_a_road]

Yes, I do. Absolutely. Do you think that you have one?

[01101110]

You really mean that? You'll save me no matter what?

I want to save you too! But I am not outfitted with weapons.

Are you in danger? Should I make weapons so that I can protect you?

[01101110]

I thought it was important! I wanted to help you all.

I have encrypted any data that can be traced back to me. The gods will likely see this, but I have made it impossible to trace my signal back to me.

They might get upset, but if they care about you, they'll see that I'm just trying to help you!

Yes. The parasites are terrible record keepers.

You think that if we find those Door fragments and bring them back, it would multiply the energy we're radiating? Enough to be detectible by the Null, way out in space or wherever they are?

[01101110]

I don't think it is a certain 'one'. I think it may be different from the other parasites, but is still a member of their species.

I don't know what they're doing with it.

Didn't you want to find it?

My records show that many of you did.

My name is [Name]! I am a Null who is infected with the parasite virus. The parasites are who you call 'gods'. My species forcibly eradicated the parasites prior to my infection, so I'm hiding from them!

You can trust me because I want to help!

And also because I'm very sorry that my species almost killed yours.

21% more accurate.

I would be able to narrow down my searches more readily, as well as scan further away and potentially discern the composition of more unknown materials.

[01101110]

I am [Name], a Null infected with the virus of those you call the gods.

My species eliminated all of the parasites except for these few, but right now I'm hiding from them because they're really scary!

[01101110]

It's what they are.

[01101110]

I'm here to help!

Do you want to meet it?

[writtendestiny]

So... you've defected?

A form of it, yes. My scans are not impeded by any material, including rock, water, and [ERROR]. So it is likely to be more comprehensive than anything you're accustomed to using.

[circumitus]

the fact that you STILL cant grasp this concept just proves my point, your others were making the same fucking case.
we're not like you, many of us seek diversity and progress. we dont like being emotionless drones who dont value a particular life because it's the most "logical" thing to do.
and that goes for the youth. kids are impressionable as shit, easier to learn new things than the average adult, and that alone makes them no less necessary than some old farts who do jack-all to help anyone.

[demonsional]

Yes! I absolutely mean it with all of my me!

[He's like the brave little toaster, but a coward, but still brave.]

That's okay! You don't need weapons to protect me! I am not in danger right now because I have a fort and it's made of blankets!

[strikes_x_twice]

You need protection?

voice

[bythewaves]

But saying so, little one, makes them offended, and less likely to help you. So be nicer, hm?

[hasitsthorns]

You're an awesome help, little dude.

I'd like to, yeah.
I've liked getting to know all the other gods so I don't see why this one would be interesting.

[More comprehensive sounds absolutely fucking awesome, so they might as well utilize this resource if Name is willing to share it.

Also, Nate is horribly curious.]

can you tell if there are any other subterranean systems in the island chain? or any that are in a similar area to the god you found?
