"Beginning entity analysis. Entity exists outside known possipoints. Transitioning to general reception array. Hello."
:What are you? "I am Aios, the Automata Incarnum Overseer System. Master sil created me to maintain and supervise the substrata operations of Clockwork City. This partition can provide answers to class-seven queries only. Thank you for your understanding."
::Your master is in danger. Let us through so we can help him. "Assessing threats to Master Sil. Dreaming... open window. Sunlight through glass. Threat analysis prepared: Prospect Numidium: negative. Prospect Almalexia: negative. Prospect Erasure: negative. No existential threat detected."
:::There is a threat! The Daedric Prince, Nocturnal! "Accessing privatized threat-array. Dreaming... knee abrasion. Lullaby. Threat located. Nocturnal. Ur-dra. Unfathomable Mistress of Shadows. Prospect registered. Risk level: moderate. Thank you for your concern."
::::Now can you help us? "Motive evaluation complete. Non-hostile intent confirmed. Assistance threshold increased twenty percent. I can now provide advice and analysis. A manual override is required to proceed. Lower automata still adhere to trespass protocols. Use caution."
"Greetings. This partition governs All-Axle operations and gate controls. How can I assist you?
:I need you to lower the gate that blocks our passage to the throne room. "Evaluating access petition. Dreaming... raindrops on glass. Wood smoke. Access granted. Please make swift progress to the throne room. Daedric corruption detected."
"Warning. Situation critical. Daedric threat rating increased to severe.
:What's going on in there, Aios? "I detect both a Daedric entity and a Daedric artifact in the throne room. Proximity to the Throne Aligned, Master Sil, poses existential risk to City and all occupants. Cleansing mechanisms offline. I urgently request that you intervene.
::We'll stop the Shadow. "Conducting confidence assessment. Dreaming... Deceased bird. Handkerchief. Confidence assessment complete. Certainty rating does not meet credible acceptance threshold. Fail-safe preparations underway."
:::What does that mean? "This partition is not authorised to discuss fail-safe protocol. Effects on non-divine persons' psyches deemed too dangerous by Master Sil. Fail-safe will disengage if Daedric corruption is reduced to acceptable levels."
::::What is an acceptable level of Daedric corruption? "Zero. Farewell, and good luck."
