TalOS took a moment to think to himself about what it was he should do. The fact of the matter was that the moment this AI would be discovered TalOS’s entire Career and the entire Mechanicum has a decent likelihood of imploding upon itself. The Emperor would not be able to provide protections to TalOS when an entire half the Imperium that he built for effectiveness becomes the weapon used to kill him.
So with those things in mind TalOS could not do something such as moving the AI into a container or keeping him under lock and key. Both of these situations can have the chances of his discovery skyrocket every single time someone was to come into his room. Even if there was a false narrative put forward, the narrative will continue to be tested every single day for the rest of both Caliber’s and TalOS’s existences.
“Calibre.” TalOS announced as he picked up the cube and raised it before him, “I cannot leave you out in any way you might comprehend. The chances of your discovery are too numerous.”
“If you were worried about that you should have killed me the moment you brought me back.” Pointed out the AI as he gave a something close to a snicker, “So what are you going to do instead?”
“I will welcome you into my systems, my Temple.” TalOS declared as a datajack materialized at his wrist from the Nanomachines that were within his body.
To those words the AI began <span class="mu-i">laughing</span>, “Are you serious? Look man I know you don’t trust me for Kratos’s fuck-up but your entire religion says that I should be killed.”
“Do you think there is a better way?” TalOS said as he began naming reasons, “Any other method will give run the chance of your discovery. And in addition to that, it gives me a chance to keep a closer eye upon you.”
“So you’ve chosen the most dangerous option that needs the most trust, because you don’t trust me.” The AI said as he gave another hearty laugh, “I’d say humans are weird but you’re this… Primarch. You know what, fine, not like I would be dead without you.”
Upon his words the Black Box that TalOS was holding revealed itself to have a series of connections and jacks. With the core exposed, TalOS hooked himself into the system to start the data transfer.
The connection between the two will be more of the standard fare with other Machine Spirits. The only difference here was that instead of a Spirit it was an AI now harboring inside him.
“Now then, we must start our investigation.” TalOS declared as he started looking at the information.
