The Seekers emerge in the Underground

A new era begins…

The transition of ownership from Sparky to the ranks of The Found finally complete, the Underground soon came alive with a flurry of activity that hadn’t been seen since their first days of creation.

Seekers in all manner of colours and forms had set up camp at a cavernous cross-roads, and a steady stream of bots moved in and through and around them, intertwining while going about their daily business as if taking part in some kaleidoscopic, divinely choreographed dance.

The robot traffic flowed in every direction through the hallways and passages, a constant procession solidly focused on best performing the new tasks assigned to them.

Watching from above, the productive chaos was beautiful, seeming to even breathe as they navigated past each other, the pulsing mass appearing to pause at intervals for a micro-moment like birds in the air, before they all went on their separate ways…

The atmosphere of the Underground felt as full of new possibilities as the robots had hues of paint and the Seekers applied themselves to their new charges as if their very lives depended on it…

Yet it was surely, musing on this most delicate knife-edge that the Seekers’ lives balanced still, that somewhere amidst all the productivity, someone prioritised the time to carefully blister a blazing message….

Ten feet high, one morning, there it was on the Underground wall for everyone to see…

Standing mightily above the centre of the passing traffic’s most frantic place, the words read:

WE ARE THE BUILDERS OF THE METAVERSE

WE ARE WHO WE WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO BE

THE FOUND MUST STAY LOYAL

WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER
