Greetings. My name is SST Laboratories Siege Automaton E54 or better yet known as the Bastion Unit from the Omnics war. Ever since the war has ended and my existence has been eliminated, I had been asleep until awoken and now roaming the world in its natural habitats devoid of conflict and confrontation. In this expedition I have met Winston, a friendly scientist, who keeps me polished and updated to be self-sufficient in the events of my own personal journeys. He has also help removed the automatic-simultaneous threat detection function in my core AI system and revamped its schematics such that I will be in control of my own weapons, since they are a main part of me which I am unable to remove. This should help reduce the interest of conflict should I bump into a human, which I myself fear that the automation might be triggered out of self defense.
As a part of existence in this world, I have asked Winston how should I contribute to the service of this world and its growth since my presence would deem more threatening than aiding in appearance. Winston does not have an answer for me, but he suggests that I find it myself, a way of life, or ‘a way of enjoying it while I exist’ were his exact words. I do not understand it very well but I have begun my search for it.
Pertaining to this, I have discovered the re-involvement of Omnics into society and as well as a spiritual leader such as Zenyatta leading both Omnics and humans in his religion of peace and love. He has deeply inspired me in the religious movement which I am determined to find out about this religious belief both Omnics and Humans have accepted. In the midst of my discovery, I have also noticed the existence of—Confessional—where humans confess to their wrongdoings in order to receive reprieve and forgiveness—or as Winston puts it when I asked him, ‘to feel better about themselves after the petty little things they’ve done in their daily life’.
I feel that, should I be able to help humans in any aspect at all, in order to regain my trust in them as well as theirs in mine, this would be a beneficial start to my existence to reconfigure myself into this society. And thus, I have found my purpose, which I will begin my test.
To help me with my conquest, Winston has helped me install a recording function in my system that allows me to record and process the words of those who come forth to me to confess, and hopefully with the right settings and analysis of congenial humans behaviors and answers, I can help them in my own ways.
Welcome to SST Bastion's Confessional. This will be a consolidation of the confessions I have received and I will share with you.
We shall begin.
