The days passed, playing with the kids, spending time together, and honing skills.

 On the third day, Noah met Promethius in the hospital room. There was this funny odor now in the medical room. Sabrina doesn't seem to notice.

Noah rolled his long neck. "Grey, could you break down the body but save the memory cores just encase we need a backup?" He pulled up a slate for Prom indicating the plan. He was going to pull the specter and they would use Prom as an interface. It would allow them to download the memories of the specter before sending her off to her final rest. This would allow for Amy to live on as her awareness would have a constant stream from one point to another.

 Grey didn't despond verbally but there was a sudden shifting in the room where Amy's body had been kept and she was no longer there (though the discarded synth parts still were).

Prometheus stopped at the door. He knew something like this would take Noah directly, rather then one of his drones. However the fact was this had to be done if he wanted to save her. And regardless of what he gave up, regardless of what paths he took, and the men he dealt with.

It was all about saving in the end, right? Traditionally animals and medicine of course. Synthetic Necromancy wasn't the traditional path.

But if anyone deserved more time, it was Amy.

Entering the room, Prometheus greeted the Dragon with a nod, and then looked over the plan. Finally he said, "I understand most of this, but if what little remains of Amy's soul is moving on, what will be the spirit that the Synth clings to, to function?" He had never been sure exactly what or where the souls used in Synth craft came from, especially for those that were intended for robots...

But when they had a perfectly good soul... it seemed wasteful to pass it on. It was probably necessary, but still...

Noah rocked his head back and forth. "You are asking me to answer a fundamental question about the meaning and mode of human existence, not something we are going to answer perfectly any time soon."

"Once we fully download her and give mental Amy a full accounting of her life. Once that is done we will talk with her and her dad all in the same place. If they decide to let us continue then so be it."

"At that stage, we will get some ectoplasm for Grey and she can 'print' out that soul filament synths have."

"Synths gain a true soul as they gain life experience. In this case, she will have the most life experience of any synth made on earth." He shrugged, "Given my recent lifestyle change I have come to the conclusion that we are three people in one person. The body, the mind, and the soul."

"Given that thirty percent of her memory survived the whole ordeal, Amy has had no laps. There is a clear line from birth to this point where her memory continues. All we are doing is mending the memory from the original, then giving her prosthetics."
