You do such an excellent job in taking the reader into an AI frame of mind! I'll never look at an IA prompt the same again. 😉

Heh, that makes me happy! One of my goals was to capture a unique perspective for these AI characters. Thank you!

I stopped reading to march right down here and as a history guy say how much I enjoy coordinates in actual Jerusalem and the criminals being nailed to stakes rather than crosses.

That was a real prompt from a real person. The moment I saw those coordinates and the date, I knew I was putting it in the story.

Fascinating chapter. The Gemini scene on the hill was especially striking - quiet, unsettling, and very human. Looking forward to the next part.
