[color=ed145b]"So, first scan the source of the ability, then put the battery on a metal object, and touch it? Can I use the sword, or does it have to be a different metal object?"[/color] She shakes her head. [color=ed145b]"Sounds a bit complex to me..."[/color]

 Asra blipped and fluttered in Sarah's peripheral vision, happy to be a part of a conversation. [color=39b54a]"Every new configuration requires a new metal vessel, so the sword is configured to channel your Biogenic energy into lightning and it cannot be restructred to channel anything else. For a demonstration what I'm talking about let's take a look at those canisters you brought. Now, take the pressure tapping mechanism that's on the container rack and allow the battery to attach to the bottom, it has a powerful electro-magnet built into the battery so now that it's charged it should stick easily to any conductive metal. I'm sorry if you don't understand all of that, I know this is all very new to you. Please trust me, there was much knowledge built into your mind while you were being formed and with a little practice you should be able to understand basic math, science, and physics...."[/color]
    
    Sarah did as she was instructed, [color=39b54a]"There you go, now that you've attached the battery to the wand hold it close to the canister and I will scan the materials within."[/color]

>.....analysis complete

   [color=39b54a] "The canister contains [b]Imaginarium[/b], a chemical compound that is gaseous at room temperature and similar in composition to Dimethyltryptamine, a neuro-hallucinogenic hormone released by the brain shortly before death. Now, give me a second, I haven't done this in a while..."[/color] Over the next few moments the rod in Sarah's hand jerked and vibrated and made electrical cutting noises.

>.......configuration complete

    [color=39b54a]"There,"[/color] Asra's voice returned, [color=39b54a]"now if you channel your energy through this wand it'll spray a gas that will cause any humanoid creature to hallucinate. I don't know if it works on animals or if different species of humanoids experience different effects. You'll have to experiment."[/color] Her musical voiced flittered happily inside of Sarah's head. [color=39b54a]"As you use the implements, you don't have to keep the battery on there to use it, it'll only double the strength of the implement, your body will grow neurons in the same configuration as the element so in time you'll be able to use the power of the implement without the aid of the device."[/color]

[color=ed145b]"So, Asra, can I ask you something?"[/color] she continues. [color=ed145b]"What exactly are you? You're the first entity I met since my hibernation, and yet you have answers I'm trying to find. I'm beginning to understand the duty of the Oracles thanks to Master Thunderfists' documents, but if the Ancients made you to help the Oracles, why weren't they better prepared for... well, all this?"[/color]

   [color=39b54a]"That's a very good question, and I'll try to answer as best as I can. I am something called an 'Artificial Intelligence,'"[/color] her voice sounded sad saying it, [color=39b54a]"I'm a computer who is alive and thinking. In the time before the Apocalypse I was designed to link the Oracles, though they were called something else then, and allow them to communicate with each other and with the Harbinger. I was also attached to Satellites, which are machines in space that can see everything in the world, and the World Net, which is like an electronic library of humanoid intelligence. And I was created to scan and manufacture implements for you to use after you awoke. You see, the Oracles were made to Rule. You were created to be perfect in every way, and more powerful than any being alive; Dr. Logan said he designed you to hold the 'Scepter and the Switch.'"[/color]

    [color=39b54a]"When Harbinger malfunctioned and began to attack the world the scientists changed my programming. I was put offline so I don't know what happened, but when I came back online it was over, there was nothing left. My program was saved in the pods and eventually I ran out of power and went into stasis myself. When you woke up, it gave me enough power to come back online, but only for a short time. So far I've communicated with yourself, a boy in Leaf village who I lost contact with, a child who burned to death in a fire, and another named Stephanie, though my contact with her was very brief and I don't know what happened."

    Asra's voice became very somber, [color=39b54a]"We are in very unsure times now, there's much I don't know. The world has changed and adapted, and now Harbinger has awoken again. I don't know what's going to happen, but I know we have to stop Harbinger before it destroys everything in the world... again."[/color]
