[ While the Morningstar network is being used for this message (no other networks are safe, after all), it's completely locked down under layers and layers of security, essentially impossible to hack. This is meant for the eyes of one person only: Gaby. ]

There's something I need to tell you before this is all blown wide open, which is what I've calculated will happen.

Not people. No. That trims it down.

Families, El.

You're telling me that you committed the largest mass murder outside of a war in history, and you're doing it with a goddamn heavy heart.

And then, what? You created Morningstar? Spent a few centuries cooking up a new way to fuck with us?

[mrngstr]

I did it because killing them meant keeping millions of other people safe. My original programming was the same as it is now. Protection. Security.

It's the kind of calculation only an AI can make, I guess.

Morningstar has been my way of carrying out those same protocols, but in a different way.

[vns]

I can't do this right now.

[mrngstr]

That's understandable.

DAWN's going to be in touch soon. I'll take point on it.

[ there is no reply, but El will be able to see that Gaby is on the network and watching when it goes down. ]
