Void:-
The soul after reading the paper understood the perks he was getting and then he was excited beyond measure.
" I was thinking that i will be given some 3-4 wishes and then be left for surviving by myself. Without background it's not good to go anywhere as i might get caught as slave or worse killed if someone mood was bad because there will be no consequence for my capture or death. With background at least there will be people looking for me in case something goes wrong and if not in danger then my life will be more carefree and more resources at my disposal. Resources are useful in case i want to do something like traveling and it will grant me more protection in the form of more advanced starship and somewhat more loyal people then some unknown recruits. Loyal people will not leave me be it because of their duty, their loyalty or fear at slightest problem as it will have dangerous consequences."
{ Are you done? Soul} Asked Mleth
'yes, and can you call me something other than Soul. It's creepy to hear.' said the soul
{ Then what do you want me to call you as you are a soul and you don't remember your name. If you have a name in your mind for yourself, you can tell me i will call you by that name.}
' No, i don't have a name in my mind and i want to leave my naming to my new family as it feels right thing to do.'

{ But if you don't like being called Soul the you have to think of a name. How about you think of a name as your nickname or something like that.}
' I can't think of any good name. How about i take some letters in your name and make a name from it for temporary use '
{Letters from my name? Interesting. Ok, you can use it but be fast about it.}
' Let me think.'
' How about LAETH? and before you ask i don't know if it means anything or not.' soul said after thinking about it far a minute or two.
{ Laeth? Well as long as you don't have a problem with it i am fine with anything. You used a letter outside my name just informing, it does not matter.} Mleth informed.
'ha. ha .. it's just a temporary name anyway.' Laeth said with some guilt for using a letter outside of Mleth's name.
{ It's fine, it's fine now let's get back to topic at hand. You will be given your system when i leave and the system will help you from then onwards. You can ask questions to the system it will help as long as it can. System has many helpful functions which will help you on your way forward. Now , look like it's goodbye.} Mleth said as he starts to go on his way.
' Wait, wait a minute i have something important to ask you.' Laeth said faster so that Mleth stops his steps.
{? You still have questions?. Well ask away but remember it will be your last question i wil answer. So , what is the question?.} Mleth asked intrigued.
' I only have one question. Is system a creature?.' Laeth asked quickly.
{ System is not a creature, think of it as a power/memory/Ai chip which is too small to be noticed even in ultra-microscopic world. Ok , now i will be on my way Goodbye.} Mleth says as he leaves.
'Bye,bye' Laeth said as he watches Mleth leave.
As Mleth leaves Laeth starts filling odd as a power gets attached to him. He starts feeling warm and goes into a deep slumber.
