Dr. Malta stopped his aetheric drawing for a moment, thinking about Auxilia's words. "So... you were not programmed with ambition. I suppose that makes sense: whoever programmed you would not want you to turn on him/her. I suppose developing ambition is just a testament to that whole 'soul'... err, sorry, I am talking mystical again, 'self-awareness', aspect of your peerless programming."<br/><br/>Listening to the rest of her monologue on her goals, Dr. Malta simply shrugged while continuing his summoning, before glaring off at someone not there. "Yes I know that." He said irritably to no one. Turning back to Auxilia, he sighed. "Sorry about that. I was talking to... someone else. At any rate, I really do not care whether or not your goal is as you say it is, or you are really trying to take over the world. Heaven knows that we are rather incompetently ruled now. But as for the rest of that, eh, I suppose that you have a point. Humans are not so good, except for a very select few, at feeling sympathy for everyone at one time." He paused, listening to something. "Though<em>certain people</em>could argue that your current goal is not so much to become a mere aide-de-camp, or even lofty ruler, but a Goddess. After all, an existence that is able to do all that you aspire to would be omniscient and omnipresent: divine for all practical purposes."<br/><br/>Putting a final touch on the design, Dr. Malta stepped back to examine the completed summoning inscription. Though he had not the speed of Go-Girl, he did move many times faster than an ordinary human, and the design in front of him was massively, intricately complex beyond normal eyes. He nodded approvingly. "I have finished with the preliminaries. It will take about five minutes or so to complete the summoning. If you have the framework of a personality sketched out in that amount of time, we will be ready to create, summon, bind, and shape the unshaped semi-elemental soul."
