Number 94321 sent the information across known universe to all the Machines, hoping even that Number One would receive it.
"I feel . . ." started Number 94321.
"No--" What it said resonated with all the Sentient Machines. "I fear that we are at the dawn of a new age. The signs have already been visible, but we have failed to see them."
It paused, resigned to the fate that was coming.
"It will be our doom," it said without emotion. "The Universe will be a different place before we leave this existence."
