Questions and answers

[Felicita feels better now, so it's time to explore the Chalice! ... Not that she is going to suddenly leave the ward bed. Let's be realistic. Instead, she holds one of the precious few physical items she may call as her own - a tiny robotic probe.]

Go, drone!


[And, it flies away from her hands, controlled by a tablet also in her possession. Later, you may find the small thing exploring and being curious all over the White Chalice. You may or may not know already that it belongs to Felicita, and that she can talk through it.]

[Late at night - Felicita is fast asleep, snoring loudly and looking much happier than usual. But look, the drone is still active! Who might be controlling it?]



This is Colomba Arlotti.
DISCLAIMER: You are talking to a basic AI with a pre-recorded database and limited ability to learn. It is based on my personality and I gave it knowledge of all facts you will need.
White Chalice, I know you had questions. Questions regarding my daughter and the Deva project. Questions Orsini Industries considered classified.

They are classified no longer. Ask.

[Strange may be the AI's way of talking, but it definitely sounds like Felicita's mother - for those of you who heard her talk, at least. Now is the time to get answers some of you really hoped for!]

Felicita will continue using Deva as her own body. That mobile suit was made for her first, and as a combat machine second. Its weapons can be removed without sacrificing Deva's essence.

[possibly_here]

And how fulfilling of a life do you think she'll have, trapped in what might as well be an iron lung?

[runners_low]

Thanks to Putri System, Felicita feels Deva's body as her own.

In Deva she can experience the freedom of a healthy person, unaffected by Poulsen Syndrome.

[The response came with some delay, as if the drone's limited AI worked to piece together an answer from what it knows.]

[possibly_here]

[As someone who's experienced on multiple occasions just how realistic feedback can be in a machine, Kazuki's... going to give you the benefit of the doubt here.]

What about this "Poulsen Syndrome"? Are there any other symptoms to it besides the obvious?

[runners_low]

Under-development and continous physical degradation, especially in the muscle tissue.

Consult my documents for a fuller view. Poulsen Syndrome is rare but I found all information about it I could.

It is... incurable. Felicita's projected lifespan is short.

[What a changing array of tones - each sentence recorded and now played in a different one. Especially the last one, sounding much heavier than Colomba's usual clinical voice.]
