I feel like my first words to the multiverse should be something big and important but I've been staring at the screen for a while now so I'm just gonna stick to the basics.

Hi. I'm Dave.

I got here a few days ago. I was assigned to what I'm gonna call the nerd unit in the Perimeter Guard, which means I should be developing stuff to make the rest of the Guard's life easier. I've been reading a lot and kept an eye on the network but-- you know, at the end of the day, it's easier to go to the sources and just ask people what they need based on their experience, so...

Yeah. What do you need? What kind of problems have you encountered on the other side of the wall? What weak spots should we be working on to improve? Do people go out there a lot? I mean more like, REALLY deep in the jungle. (Or forest, or valley, or whatever it is. Probably defies definition.)

Because not gonna lie, guys, I though I would see a bunch of drones on the wall. How come we don't have an army of drones already?

[Maybe if you explain the term first, Dave...]

[ guess who comes from a place that is basically those movies that are nightmares of robots gone rogue? this gal. ]

Because you can't always trust drones to do all the work for you

[dragonring]

I don't want them to do all the work for us, I just want them to tell us if it's safe to go in there to do the work in the first place.

So like little scouting bots. Are you thinking remotely-controlled or AI?

[ please don't say AI ]

[dragonring]

I haven't decided yet, remotely-controlled would probably be easier to build. Or I could just put a spell in them. I'm still getting the information I need to make the best decision.

[bunnyhopped]

huh?? are you building robots or using magic

[ can you do both?? wtf ]

[dragonring]

Both, actually. My magic is science based.

[bunnyhopped]

?? how does that work

sounds fake

[dragonring]

You've been transported to another universe where people from a bunch of different worlds and timelines arrive too and my magic is the problem? :|
