| − | Ah, my darling Violet. How I adore the sound of your voice, the scent of your perfume. I can scarcely believe I have courted you now for three years, and I am overjoyed that soon we shall be married. I can not wait until I can carry you across the threshold and into our new home. I can not wait to see the delight on your face when you see the manor I have purchased out in the countryside. I have worked hard – so very hard – to give you every luxury you deserve. How I miss the blush of your cheeks as we whisper to one another at the galas, how I miss the coy glances as we hold hands, walking in the gardens of your father’s estate. Soon however, we will have a place of our own, just you and I. | + | :Ah, my darling Violet. How I adore the sound of your voice, the scent of your perfume.

| − | Captain Witherspoon is very happy with my designs. I have crafted a new Core, one that can copy the memories of his soldiers, allowing one mind to become more than one automaton. Each copy will be connected, synchronised with one another so that they can operate together in harmony. A unit who knows what one another thinks, so that they can fight efficiently. Many bodies, but a single mind. I have the automatons ready, I have crafted a synthetic skin to cover them, so they do not look like crude machines, but more like soldiers. Perfect – but not too perfect! – so that our enemies will be disturbed by these soldiers that fight as one. | + | :Captain Witherspoon is very happy with my designs.
