[ Inside her provided room, Eclair picked a nice solid background to stand in front of to look presentable. Still clad in her fitting, advanced-looking power armor from the neck down, with a sword's handle sticking out from over her right shoulder, Eclair starts the video and gives a small bow in greeting. She stood straight and with her hands gently clasped in front of her, emitting a well-trained grace in formalities. ]

Hello, people of this new world. My name is Eclair, artificial intelligence assistant and one of the new arrivals. I'm here to offer my services and get to know you all.

[ Straight to the point, she pauses to look into the camera. She emits a warm smile, knowing this might be a little too straightforward for human standards so she'll take a couple of seconds ]

Pardon me if this is too forward. But I will be happy to lend a helping hand to all of you, from everyday activities and errands, to combat or combat support and training roles. Both of which I'm programmed to perform. This world has given me healing magic, and I will appreciate any chances to improve on it and help you, should you require.

So please, if you'd be willing to collaborate and cooperate, let's discuss our futures here together.

Pardon?

[ The word slave gave Eclair a slight pause - blinking and tilting her head slightly, but she remains cool and collected. But she remembers how humans did refer to them as slaves, but it was a small minority of people. Slaves at least implied being living creatures, AIs are simple tools. ]

"Slave" is a term that has been thrown around among human purists in my world. A vocal minority, but there have been instances that treatment of androids have fit the definition of slavery... It's mostly frowned upon. But out of fear.

[hor]

Out of fear?

[ He asks, though out of curiosity himself. What even is the future at this point.. ]

[ceraunos]

Of an uprising. Perhaps it will be a story you're more familiar with: servants rebelling against their masters. Children usurping their parents.

[ Even in the future, much of human nature remains the same. That fear of losing their position as the top of the food chain, their dominance over the world. Androids have every advantage humans have and more. ]

[hor]

The last, yes. Our servants stand no chances against gods.

[ But it is his destiny to overthrow his uncle, who killed his father. So. You know. He gets the last part. ]

All beings have that in common.

[ceraunos]

So it seems. My human companion is knowledgeable of such tales of ancient gods and kings, and that feels like a cycle as old as time.

[ She wonders what eventually will take over androids, or are they the ones to break the cycle? Eclair can only guess. ]

If I may take a guess. You're a god, correct?

[hor]

Yes. Though I intend to be kinder to our subjects than past reigns.

[ Haha, not everyone is Set... or Geb or Ra or the list goes on, except for Osiris, but even then he only mildly scolded Set for killing servants so REALLY, Horus thinks he can count 'don't murder the servants for disobedience' as something he gets credit for. Or will, once he becomes king. ]
