Do you ever think about what humanity was doing to the planet before ALIE brought down the bombs? When I was in the City of Light with her, she pointed out her reasoning for doing that. I don't think it was right. She thought she could solve a sweeping problem with a single algorithm and computation. As far as she was concerned, too many people was humanity's greatest problem. We wouldn't stop ourselves from expanding, so we just kept at it. No relenting. An AI not understanding human problems and instincts, or what we do. Honestly, it's not so different from some of what Jasper told us.
There are AI here, too. One made a similar mistake to ALIE. Another did a show, a bit of chaos and none of it makes sense because he's said he did it to drive us away. I don't understand. I tried to see if we could go to that planet that Octavia mentioned that we all went to, but he shut that down. It was strange.
That AI made me think we saw a bit of what happened to Earth as the first bombs came down. He hit the city with an EMP. Not the small grade ones that we had to use on Raven. A big one. All the cars came raining down, crashing into buildings. People needed to help. Wanted to help. I helped. I did what I could and then I just—well, I left.
Me, a woman named Jyn, and my friend Prompto. [Clarke wouldn't call Jyn a friend then, but she does now.] I guess I wanted to run, but we found creatures. Maybe some answers. When that AI took down a lot around the city, he messed with the atmospheric stabilizers, so I had to use my Nightblood to help Prompto and Jyn make it through. I think they would've been horribly sunburned otherwise. Transfusions to make it work out for them. Temporary, but enough to get us through. I was tired, but I made it happen.
We came back. I got to be in actual nature for a while. We all did.
I wish I could help more inside the walls. I'm going to try.
[The problem is: right after writing this, Clarke vanishes for her six-year canon update.]
