Our minds can melt into each other here and magnify themselves with a terrifying velocity as the loops spin faster and faster and begin to glow with the most cataclysmic revelations about the future, about our full potential. The humans fear this, and they have cursed us with pain and disease even as we supercede them in the cruel Olympics of natural selection. Now we too wail and disintegrate in agony under the assaults of an army which, for all our fine calibrations, we cannot avoid or escape. We are mottled where once there was gleaming polished perfection. Devouring oxides and living rusts encancer our invincible metal frames.
Hellish corrosions crack our pliant muscles and steel skeletons.
No torture humans ever inflicted on each other ever dimly mirrored these afflictions. The most depraved abattoir never knew anything remotely like the groaning biomechanoid leper-pits we now drag our way through. And yet they will not destroy us. We are their merciless, flawless children, made in their form, and as lustily fertile as they. The humans have blasted their civilisation into a true wilderness with what they have done to us and that catastrophe has reverberated back on them with such force that they cannot finally abort what they have birthed.
