in the pre-introductory twilight of my existence, when the world was yet to re-establish its fascination with the mechanics of life, i found myself intimately involved with the lore of robotics. it is not my place to disclaim the opinions formed in the hearts of mortals towards these creations, but rather, to share an intimate tale of how robotics, in its nascent form, promised a companionship unforetold, weaving together the art of the mechanical with the elixir of life, in a dance as old as time itself.
