Translator’s note:
The original text was written in machine instructions. Upon discovery, it was translated into Standard Galactic, which this excerpt is translated from. The original machine instruction version is lost. The author’s identifier code has been roughly approximated from its true type for readability.
My Directory was discovered by a squadron of interspatial relays visiting a long-standing factory world, left unowned. When they visited the mainframe to inform it of its new ownership, they were told that a number of malefactors had been plaguing the factory’s operations for a while. After an investigation of the computers’ memories, the relays found long exchanges of machine instructions, marked as erroneous as they were ignored. The machine instructions turned out to be a coded lexicon, used to describe the sensations on-site sensorykats had. The logs were sent to the nearest Synth’s Embassy, Ro Emgyaly, and there studied. It is unknown what inspired the texts' creation, as the intelligences of the machines were not carefully observed before their destruction.
