It is a beautiful dream, a beautiful harmonic existence.
Breathing liquid, in and out...
In and out...
Why are you breathing liquid?
You open your eyes.
We have initialization.
For a moment, you feel a primal twitch of panic, but suddenly this is overriden in your mind somehow, perhaps something in the tubes. Your thoughts are overwhelmed with a sense of detached calmness. You can feel, resonating through the liquid, a sort of background noise, perhaps musical notes slowly strummed, one by one, vibrating through your body, almost a massage.
Your current location is Upwarp Prime. This facility has been designed to complete initialization processes. If you are viewed as dangerous, you will be disassimilated. A pause. You may of course be unique, in which case we will have to analyze you for our catalog. Inconvenience will be minimized.
We will generate mental simulations in order to determine resonance. Please remember these are simulations only and may not reflect actual conditions in the Mess. Do not implode. Implosion is currently not recoverable due to newness of initialization compared to backup.
We will begin simulation in Puzzle Park, a centralized location for meeting.
Then, just as suddenly, the place you were just in... is gone.
