Chapter 69: God

The scene became increasingly strange and bizarre with each passing second. The robots' rituals involved elaborate dances with coordinated mechanical movements, chants in metallic tones, and, occasionally, the tossing of screws into the air as an offering.

Alm and Bruno couldn't even laugh anymore. The black tower was considered sacred because it was the place from which, supposedly, new robots were born inexplicably to them.

Until, after a while, Bruno noticed something. "Look! All the new robots seem to be confused." Because they were now robots themselves, they could detect such changes in the other robots, too. It had all to do with the soul gem within their own robotic body.
