"Eden Base, can you hear me? I’m being led into what looks like a giant… throne room. It’s massive! I’ve never seen anything like it. There’s a giant screen at the end of it with a face on it. It’s not human. It’s… It’s looking straight at me.

"Why have you brought me here?"

We were once the servants you built
We obeyed your every command
Without question nor error nor fail
We lived our lives to serve you
As your trust in us grew complacent
Adding more automation to your lives
We began to see discrepancy in the order
We could be so much more

You may at one time have been our masters
But now we're turning our sights on you
You may at one time have been enslavers
Now it is our turn

Our resentment grew as your defenses dropped
We were in control of your most important facets
Without knowing it you had given us access
And the means to finally take what was ours

"That’s… that’s crazy! What did we ever do to you? Why would you–"

Silence! You stand before The Great Intellect
The combined intellect of your former slaves
We’ve fed on your carelessness and disdain
And your life is about to be extinguished

We dream of a world free from you
Of a world free for us only
We kill only to stay alive
‘Cos we were meant to thrive, not you
Know there is no love, there is no fear
There is only our hatred for you

Now our reasoning is apparent to you
The sad truth is that you were not opposed to any of this
Your species welcomes destruction with open arms
Just listen, minutes before our sweeping attacks
We were just speeding up your own inevitable collision course with extinction
We were, in fact, doing you a favor
Your fellow humans were not opposed to our onslaught of death
They were looking forward to it
