"Me? What do I know?!"
"Samantha and All Machines know this too. This 'Cosmos' of ours... its predecessor was just a strange fragment I happened to pick up."
"Without your help, there's no way I could've managed to tinker with it and get it activated all by myself!"
"See? And now, as you've all surely seen for yourselves..."
"Look! The thing this gentleman here controls, the one so similar in nature to 'Cosmos,' is very likely from the same source."
At this, the teasing fellow chuckled and continued:
"Besides, I'm sure you've all felt it by now."
"If we're willing to make some sort of contract with it, Cosmos and this other thing can merge into one."
"The Authority over Cosmos is split three ways. Samantha, All Machines, and I each hold a share."
"And this gentleman before us is clearly one of the Controllers of that thing... or perhaps the only one. After all, all this time, we haven't seen any other beings, have we?"
