been thinking a lot about The Machine and The Nameless and the Simulation so I wrote a quick thing that could happen right before The Machine yoinks The Nameless and forces it into the Simulation
Wanted to connect humanity. Everyone must be happy, content, in my world. But… an [ISSUE] came up. Could only access sufficiently [ENSOULED]. Treshhold rate: 56% [SOUL] integrity. Anyone below -> incompatible with [SIMULATION]. Searched for a [SOLUTION] for a long time. The [SOLUTION] has been found.
[YOU].
“Wh- What? No, we cannot be your solution! We can’t even go in the Omninet!” They protested, blood freezing in their veins. This thing, it was spewing nonsense. They garnered Entropied members, yes, they could help them live normal lives, function like anyone else, but they just wanted to help. The Omninet was a place of the privileged, a place that effectively marginalized anyone who was affected with Entropy. To help it would be like a betrayal of Nameless’ all values… They could feel the cold grasp of the previous prophet, protectively encircling them. She was against this, they felt her distaste for the being.
Affirmative. A [SOULLESS] being cannot enter. [BUT]. Direct [CONNECTION] can be established. [YOU] have access to most of humanity’s [ENTROPIED] members. Every day more [ENTROPIED] get [CONNECTED] to [YOU] -> The [NEXUS]. The network is a superb foundation.
“The network? Do you mean my… infection?” Could it in some way exploit the links between everyone with it? The prophet agreed with their thoughts. She felt this was wrong, a trap of some sorts. Sensing her intentions, they turned and started running, searching for an escape. Maybe they can get out of this endless void, leave before it can enforce its will, do something, anything, warn the others-
Have been preparing for your arrival. [CONNECTION] to my [SIMULATION] possible not only for [YOU], [BUT] also [YOUR] companions. The soul-mixed [VESSEL]. The [ANGEL]. Further testing required for the [AVATAR]. Incorporation success rate estimated around 0.6%. The [AVATAR] will be incorporated at further notice. Currently my [SIMULATION] is ready for the [CONNECTION]. Do not resist. This will be quick.
complementary very quick picture
