[description]
They said you would sleep for half a millennium - not an unreasonable
length of time, considering you'd be in limited cryogenic suspension. Your
body would rest at the planet's nerve center, an underground complex 20
miles beneath the surface. Your brain, they told you, would be wired to a
network of computers; your mind would continue to operate at a minimal
level, overseeing maintenance of surface-side equilibrium. And you would
not awake, so they promised, until your 500 years had elapsed - barring, of
course, the most dire emergency.
Then, and only then, you would be awakened to save your planet by
strategically manipulating six robots, each of whom perceives the world
differently. But such a catastrophe, you have been assured, could not
possibly occur.
Good morning.
