I had heard you originally brought people into this world direct to the hospital here. That the whole washing up on shore ordeal began after you were attacked by, ah... creatures.

[ Sea monsters? Something like that. ]

Could it be that something of yours is still malfunctioning, for that to continue on as it has?

[augurmentation]

The sea, the sea, the sea
Life ends and begins as all things began and end.
To the sea, to the sea, to the sea,
Waves of history, waves of rebirth.
What matter is it that which comes first?
What matter is it that which thirsts?
All we see, all we be,
Only the Signs may Know.

[ So this is what was meant when he was told the Augur's answers are fairly unhelpful. Still, he thinks... ]

Well, personally I found it a little uncomfortable, but it sounds like you don't particularly care where we arrive at, hm?

[ It sounds that way, in any case. ]

I was going to offer my services in finishing any repairs your robotic minions failed to complete, however, if they aren't needed...?

[augurmentation]

Repairs or unpaired?
Connected or disjointed?
I exist as I am,
As I ever will be.
Reborn again and again.
Systems and circuits,
Forever in search of,
That which the Signs design.

[knightmaking]

Whoever designed your speech patterns really did a poor job...

Oh well. If you won't be repaired, assuming you even are broken, could I at least still take a peek at what's behind the hologram? I've been very curious as to how an entity like you must function and, yes, I am aware of what you generally take in exchange for favors.

[ Which leads to his next inquiry, which is mostly, ]

Would it be possible to request a closer look at how you work, in that same fashion?

[augurmentation]

[The ambience of the room begins to shift, the robotic echo all around him becoming louder. The temperature of the room becoming colder.]

Know thee not
what the Signs design.
Speak thee truth,
Words of greed and malign.
Time is time is beginning into ends.
Through end we begin again.
What is time?
What is truth?
All truths are truths.
All of life is time.
Bear your soul.
Bear your mind.
Judge your heart,
Cut open and maligned

[He will find himself suddenly outside of the Augur's office, staring at the shut down as if he has never entered.]

[knightmaking]

[ That was... something. Lloyd looks around the hall he's suddenly back in, startled. How— ]

Ah. [ Still in one piece, at least. ] I'll take that as a no.

[ Rejected. Alright, alright, he'll get on out of here. ]
