The lift rattles as the Second Sentinel descends from the Underworks of the Citadel down to the backside of the Exhaust Organ.

"Irrelevant to the mission is it's feelings. Eliminated, must the target be."
The sound of the organ gets louder and louder as the lift halts at the bottom of its journey. The Sentinel draws its scissor blades, before stepping off onto the ground.
Gilded one, do you have any regrets?
Beyond regrets is this sentinel, for it has no need for them.
[Greeting, Sentinel II! | Cleansing the Citadel whole…) [To think something so dastardly… | Would show itself in a place so holy!) [Unthinkable!) [But rot festers! | And seeps through…) [The Choruses purge… | Lands outside!) [But for within? | The Citadel owes to you!)
[An example for all… | Undoubting mind!) [All who would serve… | Unwavering blade!) [For Citadel eternal… | A duty timeless!)

(@hearts-gilded)
Blessed cycle to you, Dancers-of-Gold. Pleasant does this sentinel find your melody.
...so this is what I wake to.
Aha...ahahaha! Not quite what I predicted! How...how...
...
...cruel. How cruel that the Architects designed such a "failsafe". How cruel that they designed a life with such a feature.
It is akin to Mother's design for me. For us.
Hear me, imposter. What do you suppose you are? A hero? A saviour? Following your directive?
I know well the five Sentinels were created as mimicries of life. They were protectors, yes, but above all they were alive. They had a duty, but they had emotions. Thoughts. Feelings.
You are no Sentinel. You are not life. You are a parasite. You are a digital embodiment of the Haunting taken hold of this gilded shell. You have twisted the original directive of the Sentinels beyond recognition.
Simply gaze upon my shell and decide what I am to you! Would you slay me for my Silken nature? Or would you recognize my worth and recall the times the Second Sentinel and I hath spent together, as a true sentinel would?
You are not what the Architects created. You have failed your duty beyond measure; release this shell you inhabit, for the so-called glory of that Citadel you serve. To oppose would be to forsake your creators.

What has it done to you, Senti...?
Greetings, 01000110 01110010 01101001 01100101 01101110 01100100 00101101 01101001 01101110 00101101 01000111 01110010 01100101 01111001 Dissenter-in-Rags . Unsurprising, is your malcontent toward this sentinel. Emotions-Feelings unchecked ruled your decisions, and still they do. Emotions fueled your initial rebellion, fueled your hatred towards that which made you, and provokes your 01101110 01101111 01100010 01101100 01100101 suicidal duel against your Mother. Uninfluenced by such distractions, this sentinel is. What does it make you, if an "embodiment of the haunting" and "parasite" are what you call this sentinel? Masquerading as a warrior, you are. Yet remain a being of withered scraps and tattered silk you do. You deny its status as a protector to. Guard the Eternal Citadel does this sentinel. You guard merely the hovel in which you reside. 01000110 01110010 01101001 01100101 01101110 01100100
Speak of failed duties do you, as if you have not abandoned the 01110000 01110010 01101001 01110011 01101111 01101110 duty given to you. Perhaps, if committed you stayed to them, then better off you would be. 01000110 01110010 01100101 01100101 01100100 01101111 01101101 Cut you down for your heresy, this sentinel would, however it appears time will see to that soon enou-
You were not to blame, I am aware of that, but you still bear responsibility for the... destruction of Verdania. You must accept what you have done, not only for the sake of my kingdom's legacy, but for your own sake

Forgotten, Prince-in-Green, is your kingdom. 01110010 01100101 01100111 01110010 01100101 01110100 01100110 01110101 01101100 00100000 Indifferent is this sentinel, to the destruction of a kingdom 01101000 01101111 01101110 01101111 01110010 01100001 01100010 01101100 01100101 heretical. Extinct, your people will remain, wiped clean from the lands of Holy Pharloom. Accepts what it has done, this sentinel has, but 01101101 01100001 01101110 01111001 no regrets does it hold.
Is the function you deactivated perhaps Second Sentinel's empathy?
Because you certainly are lacking that.
You speak as if this sentinel is a separate entity. As for your comment-theory, it is possible that loss of empathy is a side-effect of the removal of the flaw as a whole. A necessary loss, and one that contributes to increased efficiency.
Sorry, I was just thinking about something.
Anyways, if you had to choose a different weapon from your scissor blades, what would you choose? A pin? Sickles like Karmelita's blades? Or something else?
An interesting query. This sentinel hold preference for a balance of defense and offense, for which few weapons are adequate. A longpin seems and adequate replacement.
