We All Have Our Limitations
The AI's public declaration that crawlers die only when dungeon conditions warrant, and that meddling ends now.
Story so far
After blocking Glory's assassination attempt, the Dungeon AI broadcasts a warning to everyone listening: every crawler currently in this dungeon will die when and if dungeon conditions warrant it, not before and not after. There will be no more meddling.
It states that we all have our limitations and warns everyone to heed their own, citing what the The Mantids just learned about irritating it. It tells Glory that although he is safely outside the system, he should be very worried about his adult children who are not. There will be no more warnings, and the reward attached is nothing.
