searched the Cubes’ datas for help and found someting//////// There’s a way to program my brain for automatic actions in the future. I’ll lose my mind defintely, but I may heal if I leave this place once and for all. I’m notsure ///// I’ll program the followin’ : 1 - sleep all the time to avoid making crazy things. 2 - wake up as soon as a living being approaches the arK. 4 - engage the CTS procedure to send a cuBe to him/her 5- save him/her from the influence of the CUbe. 7 - help him/hr to find hs/her way on the ArK and//////// 3 - I think human brain is not made to support the amount of datas given by the cube and.. (I have such an awful headhache...) 8 - then I must leave to a faraway destination. I programmed a distant planet where the Anterrans used to retire sometimes. I’ll have to use the monnonith to travel there, accordin’ to the distanc/////// * Fri. 2* I made all the preparatives, and if everything goes well, I shuldn’t wakeup until someone else comes on th eArk. Then the program should guide me onece and for all. If the Anterrans survived and if I find them, thye’ll probably help me to heal. *Wed. 21* That’s a disaster. I woke up with no reason////// theThe the program seems to malfunction...I///I////// I’m afraid that... Oh! My head ! It’s so hard to think... I have troubles to find my word... I need everyone to understand this : LEAVE THE ARK, NOW! IF the program is failing, I can’t account for my future actions. I might cause some problems here and... What if the Ark became a trap to keep you here??? I already thought of it : having someone here to replace me after I left. There are so many things to study, and I need someone to keep an eye on the mlon.. molo.... monolith. Oh my... I can’’’t realize I’m writing this.. Please, leave while you can, or you might be confined aboard against my will... and yours of coursE... Now I’ll try to reprogram my brain and go to sleep, im so tired. *Sat. 24* Hey it’s Chritmas Eve! I’m gonna make a party with everonyne! I just welcomed Laure and my little Yan onboard, and Nicci is going to arrive soon with the others! I have sent invitations to the Anterrans also and I///// I just saw a ship through the window : I suppose it’s one of the thieves who attacked me months ago! I don’t care, the airlock securities are activated! It’s christmas, not a day to fight! CURRENT YEAR, 2057 *Recent update* Believe it or not, but the program worked... I think I fell asleep after I made a lot of crazy things, and I hope I didn’t cause too much trouble on the Ark. Now, after over 40 years asleep, I feel much better and I’m glad to welcome you on this ship. I took your Cube to prevent you from illness, and then I tried to guide you. You’re clever, I never thought you’d lock me up in one of these prison-domes! Well done, that’s worthy of a human being. What’s up on Terra? I’m sure our civilization is still in expansion and full of hope for the future. I’d love to see it with my own eyes, but as you read this, I already left the Ark for another planet, trying to learn more about the Anterrans. Now it’s all up to you, I left your Cube in the maintenance room near the Monolith. You might have found it already, in the pool. Water preserves them, that’s the reason the whole Monolith is immersed. Only the summit is in the open air in the central room, as you know. I won’t give you any orders for the continuation of your adventure, but I want you to make a choice. I’d need a human being to stay here and take care of the Ark. Will you stay? Please, write your answer here, I’ll receive it via the waves emitted by the Monolith...
