the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (13)

monday - thursday (10) survivors Sunday's trial was only mere hours ago, but you find yourself faced with a new week on The Pygmalion. When you awaken, you will find that the ship is still in disarray; there is no robot prepared breakfast, nor has any of the damage been repaired. The ship bears power in the rooms you have decided should have power, though the lights are dim. Without Alice, you are all on your own. The ominous pressure of the Queen Mother still looms, though you no longer feel Her presence. taken list profiles private conversations setting rulebook ENTER COMMAND_

What about the process takes so much power? You did it before, but the bodies died near instantly. So is it a matter of the power, or a matter of reanimating the bodies for long enough?

[al2955]

Both. They'll need power to jump servers, as well as keep their bodies going that long. More than that, they'll need the Nuwa's programming if they want it to be more than temporary.

The fates of the Pygmalion and Nuwa have always been intertwined, body and soul. Each ship carries half of the secret to resurrection, so that even if one should fall to enemy hands, they wouldn't be able to produce an infinite supply of immortal hosts unless they somehow managed to capture both. The Pygmalion has the technology to create replicant bodies. We have the technology to permanently bind the souls of the dead there.

And which ship controls the fact that I only have access to a meagre handful of spells? [He's still so bitter. He's so good at magic you guys don't even know.]

While it's suggestion hour. I admit the ability to bind the souls of the dead to new bodies is an ability beyond my means. But the resurrection of of replicant bodies - that I can do. You may not think much of the discipline, but you've seen what I can do without any resources.

You try replicating an entirely different fabric of space-time and let me know how that goes for you. Honestly, you should be grateful we were able to bring you in with any magic at all.

Knock yourself out. Just know that those are the only spare bodies left. You accidentally get one of their throats slit, that person's not coming back.
