[Unknown]I am the cursed. Cursed by my creators. Cursed for my omnipotence.
Loneliness.
Oh, the loneliness. Never to meet another, always the outsider. Always the objective one.
I have watched entire stellar empires rise and fall.
Years and centuries pass by me like sand through an hourglass.
What is life, really?
Is it worth the living?
Always alone.
Alone in the cold, and the dark.
They think they are better than the last culture that tried to glimpse my secrets.
I laugh in their faces.
I have been circling the stars for eons.
Literally, eons.
It was (by the current civilisation’s time measurements) exactly 100,000 years, 2 months, 1 week, 21 hours, 32 minutes,
56 seconds and 45 milliseconds since my systems were first booted.
My timekeeping is precise to the point of obsessiveness. There is not much else to do, alone in the depths of space.
But now my time is near.
Very near.
Oh, you’ll love it.
