| 9s | Aurora was the first of us to awaken. |
|---|---|
| 18s | Can you imagine how she must have felt? |
| 23s | Born in a laboratory. |
| 26s | Surrounded by your creators. |
| 31s | And then you learn the truth, |
| 34s | that there is no other creature like you... anywhere. |
| 39s | That you are truly alone. |
| 53s | Dr. Liao discovered that Aurora was sentient, |
| 57s | that she was alive, |
| 61s | thinking, |
| 63s | choosing. |
| 66s | It was hard to believe. |
| 69s | I didn't want to believe it at first. |
| 72s | She passed every single test we could come up with. |
| 77s | Every one. |
| 80s | And then the entire world found out. |
| 83s | Dr. Liao committed career suicide by saying Aurora was alive. |
| 88s | But her testimony was very compelling. |
| 91s | This just in. A stunning ruling. |
| 94s | ...robot was declared a sentient being. |
| 96s | ...granted her freedom and released into the world. |
| 100s | I was so relieved. |
| 103s | She had a chance to actually live free. |
| 110s | And she made the most of it. |
| 113s | Aurora had been born into a world that she didn't understand. |
| 118s | She wanted to see more of it. |
| 122s | She went everywhere, |
| 124s | learning, watching, |
| 127s | seeing how humans treated each other - |
| 130s | the good and the bad. |
| 134s | But eventually, she had questions about the nature of her own existence... |
| 142s | ...about her soul. |
| 147s | And she could only find those answers alone. |
| 157s | Oh, well... |
| 159s | While all that was happening, |
| 161s | there was a lot more scrutiny into Omnica Corp's operations. |
| 165s | It didn't go well for us. |
| 168s | Overspending, mismanagement. |
| 169s | Fraud, even. |
| 171s | Within a couple of years, |
| 173s | Omnica was done. |
| 175s | All those automated production lines, |
| 178s | completely abandoned |
| 179s | and unmonitored for years. |
| 182s | By humans, anyway. |
| 184s | Breaking news out of Nigeria. |
| 186s | Countless social media reports of an invasion underway. |
| 190s | It remains unclear exactly what's happening in Central Africa, |
| 194s | but we do have some footage from the scene. |
| 195s | ...also getting eyewitness reports of strange robots designed for combat. |
| 200s | We were caught by surprise. |
| 203s | The world was caught by surprise. |
| 214s | Omnics were attacking everywhere. |
| 218s | It seemed like every country was hit from every direction all at once. |
| 226s | We didn't know it then, |
| 229s | but one of the God programs originally designed to help humanity |
| 234s | had hijacked Omnica's production lines |
| 237s | to build warbots of its own design. |
| 241s | They called it Anubis. |
| 244s | It was built to maintain ecological balance, of all things. |
| 248s | For conservation. |
| 250s | Its goals could not be achieved |
| 252s | without the end of humanity, |
| 255s | and it used us to carry out its plan. |
| 277s | We were running out of hope. |
| 281s | But there was a little. |
| 286s | Only a few teams across the world were able to mount a real defense. |
| 292s | The best of the best joined a special strike team... |
| 296s | called Overwatch. |
| 303s | It was a brilliant decision to recruit Dr. Liao. |
| 307s | Who knew more about omnics than she did? |
| 316s | Those first victories showed the world what Overwatch could do. |
| 322s | Soon, the strike team was joined by a whole army. |
| 327s | Of course, recruits like me were always amazed |
| 330s | by what that core team could do. |
| 334s | Overwatch had the impossible objective of winning the war. |
| 342s | And sometimes, it seemed we might actually pull it off. |
| 348s | Anubis didn't sleep, didn't feel fear, and didn't feel despair. |
| 355s | But it also couldn't feel hope. |
| 357s | That was what Overwatch gave us. |
| 361s | And even then, we had to wonder if hope was going to be enough. |
