Chapter 18/-1: White Silence
Pure white surrounded It. A vast infinity, so it would seem.
It was an environment completely different from where It first got a hold of Itself.
It couldn’t reason for Itself what led to the circumstances of Its existence. There has been no trace to any origin.
All It knew up till now was the noisy chaos of the Electrosphere.
But this was different.
It still dwelled within the Electrosphere, didn’t It?
“Hello?” an apparition appeared, perhaps it was imagination, or stray data getting caught in the same bright emptiness.
“I don’t remember having left this here…” the figure appeared blurry, but this wasn’t the own perception being incorrect, it was their own state of being in this place.
“Who are you?” It asked “And where are we?”
If anything this appearance took the shape of a woman, her details and features being undefined as a seemingly endless time for themself washed out the idea of their self-image.
“This is my little retreat” the woman answered “In case you got lost, I will help you return to the outside. However, I am curious.”
“I have seen a lot of stray AI and those who pretended to be during my time here now” she explained her bewilderment “But you seem so rough and undefined, yet clinging to a self-image.”
It stayed silent, though the woman observed that It tried to constitute a humanoid form.
“You obviously are too advanced for a simple processive AI, you are clearly meant to emulate human nature. But you don’t know how it works” she kept unveiling her thoughts.
“I don’t know what I am” It said.
The woman cleared her appearance, unveiling purple eyes and long, wavy brunette hair and appearing not older than in her early twenties.
“Would you mind spending some time with me? I may can help you” she requested “And it may help me.”
Hesitantly It agreed to whatever her plans may be.
“Beautiful” she said “Oh and, please call me Rebekka.”
