The Library
A distress call comes from the center of the universe. As the stagnant universe breaks down, you explore brutalist landscapes and find terminals where you can talk to the two AIs. They have different thoughts and opinions, and may give you different information.
Your choices
You choose which AI to talk to, what to tell them and what to leave out. You also decide which one you agree with.
