A microsecond passed. In that microsecond, David comtemplated whether telling Nolan such information, but ultimately decided it would be better for his sanity if he just told Nolan now, saving himself from a barrage of being pokes and questions asked by a child-like nigh-omnipotent entity.

"I hope you use the term 'buddy' losely. Secondly, I am in the middle of testing the erroneous belief of Social Darwinism. Will that placate you long enough not to bother me?"

David's android hovered high in the atmosphere, looking down at the varied terrain of dense, lush forests to rugged, snowcapped mountains. Any outsider would have mistaken it for a demon from Juedo-Christian mythology crossed with a Great Old One.

Its body was constructed from a nanometal, giving it a dark, metallic body. It was easily 10ft tall, and all the more capable of changing its size. Antimatter reaction cores were mounted on opposite sides of its torso. The android's head looked like that of a stereotypical horned demon, with an equally menacing face; hollow holes lit by a red energy were the android's eyes and its mouth was spiked. On its back, were mounted eight metallic tentacles, constructed from a similar but far more flexible nanometal, each with a three-pointed pincer with an anti-energy blaster in the middle.

It opened its maw and spoke in a robotic, but deep and threatening voice; it was addressing the test subjects. The experiment truly had begun.

"Beings pulled from various planes and states of existence, my name is Epsilon Theta. But you will refer to me as the Warden, for the purposes of this experiment. You are to compete in a fight to the death, the strongest among you being the victor; all of this for my master's purposes. I will reiterate for those of you who are too shocked to process my utterance the first time; you will fight. Refusal to fight will result in instantaneous death via molecular destabilization. Hiding is not an acceptable tactic. I. will. be. watching. The experiment has begun."
