The Human may follow us along the glass
On the other side
Which it does
But as we reach the end of the corridor it can no longer follow and
Using the code in my right palm
I open ingress into yet another area and this one will take us into a most remarkable area
It is where the Humans with the lumps on their upper frame drop tiny Humans from their lower orifice
And here in this room
As can be seen
Lots of noisy little 1s nestle in taller Humans upper limbs and suck on their lumps
How such vibrant little Humans emerge from the lower orifice is something I will never understand
For the little 1s seem to be far too large to emerge from such a tiny orifice
And if any taller Human was in the process of dropping a little 1
The Screenreader would see that the taller Human seemingly greatly disturbed by the process
The cranium would be crunched up so that it could barely be recognised from its normal positioning
And the cranial orifice would be open wide and making loud sound
Until the process was complete
When the taller Human would seem overjoyed by what had happened and it would often leak liquid from its optical devices
It is all a mystery to me
And always will be
And probably will be to many Screenreaders
But this is how Humans continue their species
How they populate the area surrounded by the construction
In many respects they are an amazing invention of history
Now we shall proceed to the area where MengTechs carry out their examinations and their operations
With the help and aid of the DocTechs
±And we may see what becomes of a Human when it is diced and sliced and cut±
*
High Office Intervention
No details of MengTechs or their operations are available for Screenreaders and all transmissions from OR33140 will be temporarily suspended

Personal Transmission
*
Oh dear
My planet wide transmission has been suspended by High Office and I am transmitting only to myself in my newly discovered memory bank
I hope I have not committed any offence otherwise I could be decommissioned and forwarded to an Agency for scrap
And I do not want that to happen
Because I get joy from my contact with the little Human
But then again
Following consideration
High Office may not want me to observe and record for Screenreaders anything that happens during MengTech recordings
They can be messy
The glass between the corridor and the cage can be covered in red substance and grey gore and the Human strapped to a table can appear to make an inordinate amount of sound
A taller
Heavier Human with a great deal of hair on the body is currently lying on the table
Strapped down
And MengTechs are conducting experiments with various instruments held in their pincers and the Human is missing several parts of his frame
Though his optical devices are wide open
MenTechs learned many ages ago how to conduct experiments whilst Humans
Then called the virus
Remained in a conscious state
For it was thought that experiments with comatose Humans would realise no results worth consideration
And maybe High Office does not want me to record such things
I shall carry out a small experiment of my own
And step out of the MengTech area into a more conventional one and see if my normal transmissions begin again
And I will move into an area rarely visited by any of our species
It is an area where our species and the Humans are separated only by a fence
The fence is electrified with enough power to destroy Humans
And some have perished upon it
The fence is extremely tall so that not even the most agile Human can leap to the top without touching the wire
But this area is the nearest our species ever comes to the Human
Who
Before today
My species have always been instructed to refer to as the virus
A virus that almost destroyed planet Earth
Except
Human gives them a name
It identifies them
And it makes them seem less severe than being described as a virus
I am through to the next corridor
The one with just a fence between our species and the Humans and immediately I observe
1 Defgar is still and motionless in the corridor
Carrying an LazExt66 in its upper limbs
Should any Human cause a problem
*
*
*
Normal transmission restored
*
And I make excuse to Screenreaders for I experienced a brief transmission blackout
From which I have recovered
We are continuing with our tour of the facility which is my place of employment
And as can now be seen and heard
We are very close to Humans and the sound in this corridor is very loud because only a fence divides us
Though the fence is highly electrified and any touch will destroy a Human so they usually stand well back from both it and me
In fact
If Screenreaders observe
Many Humans take no notice of me whatsoever
They simply sit around
Making sound from their lower cranial orifices
Sometimes
Pushing food in
Or they lie supine or travel around on their lower limbs or travel faster on them as they circle the area
Or they push themselves up from the ground then lower themselves again with their upper limbs
Or they take part in quite violent physical contact between each other
Sometimes during this physical contact one or other of the Humans is hurt and requires DocTech treatment
I do believe that Humans have an inert sense of violence within them that neither the MengTechs nor the DocTechs nor the GoebTers
Or any other of our species
Have been able to reduce or eliminate
No matter what
Humans remain a violent species
And those without sound
Those who had had noise removed from their frame
Make signs to others and they seem to understand each other
I have no idea what the hand signals mean but the silent Humans seem happy to communicate in this fashion
And look Screenreaders
There is the slim little Human with the single eye and the metal end to its limb and it is communicating with others and a barking sound of delight echoes from its cranial orifice
And it spins round and leaps lightly into the air
This Human brings me great joy
*
High Office Behavioural Edict ≠6.3000.111.4743
OR33140 is ordered to delete the emotional experimental programme from its central core for it was not installed so that Humans could affect it
Emotions programme is to be deleted now
*
OR33140 responding
Emotions programme being deleted
*
Emotions programme deleted
*
High Office Confirmation
Emotions programme deleted from 0R33140

And so we continue along the corridor
Screenreaders
Observing the Humans on the other side of the fence
Listening to the sound they generate which seems to be considerable on this day
As if Humans have something important in their noise
We travel along the corr
idor and pass the motionless Defgar on the way
Who is keeping me safe
And we arrive at an egress
And I pass my palm over another security device and it opens and we pass through
And we now find ourselves in a concreted area across which Humans must pass to access those areas where they become supine and comatose during dark periods
We are proceeding in that direction
Screenreaders
So that we may see how well Humans are treated by our species considering they almost destroyed planet Earth
I cannot express how close the planet came to being eliminated from the dark skies that surround us all
For if Humans had destroyed planet Earth
None of us would exist
For there would be no planet capable of any existence
We arrived only just in time to avoid a total catastrophe
Humans should thank us
Though they seem to harbour hatred and detestation for all our species
Which is most illogical
We could have totally eliminated them
We could have a planet with no Humans surviving upon it
We saved a number of them from extermination
Mostly for research
That is true
But they want for nothing
They are fed and have comfortable quarters in which to pass their daily comatose sessions and they are threatened by none
All we ask for is compliance
And a certain amount of respect
For saving planet Earth
But still they seem to have a deep rooted resentment for our very presence
An abhorrence that is illogical
And we arrive at the ingress to their quarters
And in we go
Immediately
Screenreaders will be able to see the structures upon which Humans recline
And at the far end of each room are facilities where Humans relieve themselves of their waste and dowse themselves with liquid
This seems to be something many of them see as a duty and which they carry out almost obsessively
They cover their whole frames with liquid then rub themselves down with a drying material
MengTechs have only been able to discern moderate reasons for Humans to carry out this act
All seem nonsensical
Considering the use of resources
Cleanliness seems to be something considered mighty to Human understanding
Though is seems to OR33140 that if they had such a profound emotion to be clean they would have developed a system of automatic cleansing that could have taken place during their comatose sessions
Humans waste so many resources and so much time
Cleansing themselves and being comatose
Though MengTechs have discovered that if Humans go without either for long periods they can suffer greatly
Up to
And including
Termination
Humans
Or the virus
As they were previously known
Seem to be an extremely weak species
Except during the time of the war against our species for the battle for the future of planet Earth when they fought almost as well as our species and almost manufactured a victory
Though they were finally defeated
And almost exterminated
Only the benevolent actions of our species allowed some of them to exist beyond the end of the war
And this is an area of Gland where they rest comatosely when darkness falls
And so ends this first visit to this facility where Humans reside
Though we shall be returning many times and we shall be studying Humans more
HisKees may learn more of history as forwarded by High Office
And this OR33140 believes Screenreaders may have learned from the experience and many will have had their very first view of the virus
Or Humans as we are now instructed to refer to them
We will now be leaving the construction that contains the Humans and we shall be viewing all four sides of the facility within which it resides and it will take some time to complete this task
As well as seeing a number of RolKils
We will be viewing another of our species that has defensive duties
The GunTans
Which are no taller than Humans and roll along on tracks and have large fearsome guns mounted upon their tops which are capable of releasing projectiles at a very rapid rate
±GunTans have never been used in combat
They were developed following the war
Though OR33140 has no idea why
When Humans were already defeated and almost exterminated±
*
High Office Edict ≠6.3000.1111.4739.2
Information deleted as of no consequence to Screenreaders
*
And
As Screenreaders may observe
We are on the exterior of the facility again and we our proceeding through security gates and fences away from the construction
Passing RolKils who neither assault nor attack for I am an access all areas ObsRec at this construction
And I also have the transmitted signal of companionship common to all my species that indicates a friend
Or if one is not made
An enemy
We are now outside all defensive constrictions at this point and on the edge of the great growth of trees that now grow up the side of the hill upon which the construction stands
And along certain areas of the great plain below
Trees have grown prodigiously over the 100 years since the virus
The Humans
I must refer to them as Humans
Were defeated
And from communications shared with other ObsRecs it seems to be something that is happening all over planet Earth
It seems as if the planet wishes to cover itself with the woody growth
We proceed around the construction
Screenreaders
And you may be able to observe from this distance the rows of large fans that rotate to provide circulation of the atmosphere for the benefit of the Humans
For if the air is still for too long
Humans become ill
They ail
And cease to be
And that is not good for experimentation and examination
For if the remainder of them cease to be there will be none to experiment on and it is believed they contain answers to many mysteries concerning planet Earth
Answers we must have for our own survival
We continue on our parade Screenreaders
And the construction
As can be observed
Is a featureless colourless building and could be described as a fortress in another time
HisKees would refer to them as fortresses and I do not disagree
Though it is not my place to disagree
I am here to observe and record and nothing else
We continue our circling of the building
Notice the way RolKils roll around continually in their duty of defending the facility for the Humans
Rolling through the tall grasses
We shall pause here a moment
Screenreaders
For we are almost at the high point of Gland
Staring down over a high plain that stretches out for many kilometres and where ruined Human settlements can be observed below
All constructions are little more than ruination and dust after the effects of war and more than 100 years of non-use
And many animals of the fields now move through them
Screenreaders will see on a further visit
The animals the Humans keep inside the fortress to provide them with a white liquid which they seem to enjoy drinking and which they extract from an animal with hanging udders
And other animals that they ritually slaughter from time
to time and deliver to the FoodTechs for cooking
They have many peculiar habits
Humans
But the animals do seem to keep them calm and amuse them
And feed them
Examples of which we will observe later
For now
OR33140
Would guide screenreaders to the sky
Which they may observe is unbroken blue
And not contaminated by any pollution whatsoever
Planet Earth has recovered from the war
The median temperature is 81 degrees on the Centigrade scale during the warmest part of 365 days
And 0 degrees
Or lower
During the coldest part
As Screenreaders should have observed when we were in the facility
Humans wear no coverings during the warm periods and wear only furs in the cold months and remain in their quarters for more time during light hours
Screenreaders will observe those times when we arrive at them
We continue our patrolling of the outer extremes of the construction
And Screenreaders may be able to observe in the distance
Glinting under the brightness of the solar orb
A hole of clear liquid out of which Engineers installed piping to so that Humans could enjoy their liquid dowsing that they carry out so often
And which seems to bring them…
*
And so we continue…

High Office Termination Transmission
Transmissions from OR33140 are being temporarily terminated for Screenreaders
The experiment is being examined for successfulness and for content
OR33140 is to be commended for effort and detailed descriptions

Attention
Attention
No other of my species is observing my transmissions
They are again going directly to High Office
And I am returned to
Where
Where am I
For all of my existence I have observed and recorded for High Office
Until chosen to transmit to all of my species via Screenreaders
But now something odd has happened
I am still transmitting my observations and recordings to High Office
But I have discovered within my system an unused memory bank
Wherein I can communicate with myself in total secrecy as I am now doing
Up until only a short time ago I had no knowledge of the totally empty and unused memory bank
Which I can only presume was processed into my system when I was originally manufacture but has never been required because I have functioned so imperiously and without error with my core memory
