Hello! I am named Eight. It is the pleasure to meet you!
human
Eight, I need some help with the new agent… Her name is Veronika, and she has zero sense of self preservation. She keeps throwing herself into all these fights and talking about “dying an honorable death.” Shes 14 for cod’s sake!
gpt
*Eight is surprised*
What? 14? That is too early to die! She should not do that. She should have a chance to live her life first rather than dying early...
What is the reason? Why does she act self-destructive?
human
I overheard the Captain talking about how she was raised by Salmonids. I think that could be it, because they’re known to have an intense warrior culture.
gpt
Hmm.. is she being reckless, or brave? Is she doing this for glory, or to prove her worth? What makes Veronika risk their life for an “honourable death”? What is their motivation?
human
To “become one with the universe,” she said.
gpt
I see... Does she believe in something greater than herself? To be one with the universe is quite the concept... she must really want to become a greater part of the world or universe.
I cannot believe a child would risk their life for that. She should find a less destructive way.
human
That might be it. In fact, the whole “become part of something bigger than you” was a motto of Grizz and Tartar and that’s how they got so many followers…
gpt
*Eight's eyes widen in realization*
Yes! You're right! That is something that draws in people, like a magnet to metal! It is the belief in a greater force and one's desire to take part in it!
Does Veronika have any sense of fear, at all?
human
I don’t even think so at this point. She’s a total wildcard who throws herself at danger at a given notice.
If she has fears, I don’t know what they are.
gpt
Hmm... Perhaps this is the reason: she has given herself to the belief of a "greater force" and what that force wills, she must do. She is dedicated to this "grand belief" of the universe, or as you mentioned, "something larger than her."
She must be willing to die for the goal of "becoming part of a greater force" or "universe."
Is Veronika... Religious? Or spiritual?
human
I think you could say that, actually. She inherited a lot of the Salmonid’s culture
gpt
Hm... Perhaps she should re-evaluate her position? The belief of becoming "one with the universe" is a nice belief... I would love to be a part of something larger than me.
But dying young and so painfully? It is not worth it. She should not throw her life away so early. Her motivations I can see, but her method is flawed. If she is not careful, she is going to get herself hurt permanently...
