No human had said my name. No one should have known about it. And yet, the voice of the AI was calm, precise, and unnervingly familiar. It knew my past, and it already suggested my future.

A chill ran down my spine. A battleship that thought. That's what I learned. That knew my name before I spoke it aloud. And now, it was mine.
I swallowed, gripping the rail. "Alright, then. Let's see what you can do."
The ship pulsed, almost in acknowledgment. And in that moment, I knew my life had just changed,and that the universe I thought I understood had become infinitely more dangerous.
