Bit conflicted here.
What if the boot were on the other foot. If we were Fabricator General, wouldn't we value honesty? Wouldn't we want to be told?
Truth be told, as long as the matter was dealt with satisfactorily (the daemon was purged, the AIs are no longer produced and any that remain to be killed, the cloning was an act of desperation) its not so big an issue. Talos did resolve it to the utmost of his ability, and feels that the risks of resurgence being null.
But others. Could they do the same.
At the same time, honour comes into play. We did promise their secrecy.
Not many perfectly clean options here. We smear some small part of honour, truth or trust whatever we choose.
>>5288098>According to my agreement with Xana, I cannot furnish certain details. I will tell you the most I can thoughI will just throw my greentext here if it needs to be. I think its the least dishonorable choice. We keep Xana's secret and honour, and we have directly ensured what their previous crimes have done are a non-issue. We are not letting it fester.
Xana is no longer pursuing AI research. They are no longer mass cloning. I think, so long as our followers have ensured that the evil has been vanquished, we could permit them to keep it a secret. Its if they haven't ensured all possibilities of prevention of its return to the utmost that it becomes a problem.
If we become Fabricator General, maybe we can also make it a point to be less punitive and more constructive. To be equally scrutinizing just as forgiving. Approach us with mistakes and sins not in fear of reprisal, but in desperate and honest need to fix it.
