On the Road to Colosseum

[King Axorn]

Axorn turned his thoughts back to Alexyana, interested at teaching her about the wonders of electricity. "Well, you could say the database is like a library on demand. I don't suppose you know what electricity and the internet are based on the fact that you were living in, what we call in the future, the middle ages. Here, let me show you." Axorn turned a knob on his watch and a small projecter popped out the side, he then preformed a series of tap and swipe codes on the touch screen in order to tell it the information it required to recieve it's commands. The projecter blinked to life, projecting a small holo-screen on Axorn's lap. He then made a few more motions on the screen itself, making the projecter-like device create another screen on Alexyana's lap, although this one wasn't interactive and instead of it being hard-light, if she attempted to touch it, her hand would pass straight through. Axorn opened a demonstration program and put together a simple explanation with ease. Axorn then engaged the presentation, having it broadcast on both devices. As of now the screen was just blank. "So, let's start with the basics, electricity. Have you ever seen lightning before? Wait, what am I saying, who hasn't?! Lightning is electricity, albeit on a much larger scale than the electricity that's harnessed in this machinery." Axorn swiped his screen amd both demonstrated a simulation of lightning striking a metal pole. "Metals are able to direct the flow of electricity. Allowing us to feed it through complicated grids of metal wiring that change slightly depending on what we want it to do. By connecting together dozens of these grids, we are able to create computers." Axorn swiped on the screen once more with his claws, bringing up the image of a primitive desktop computer. "This is a computer. It is made up of a huge grid network that's able to process anything from solving a simple math equation to running a video game. I'm not going to get into the latter since it's quite complicated and would bring me off topic. So, the internet is a way for computers to exchange information without being directly connected to one another. The Draconian database is a huge network of information on the internet that only certain computers can access. It contains detailed reports of almost everything since it's creation. It also includes digital copies of everything from the original Draconian database, a library. The Dataverse works in pretty much the same way as the internet. I can't connect to the internet because I can't get a signal here. But, I have found that magic and electricity can be interchangeable at times, so if I could get a magical connection back home, I should be able to access the internet, and in turn, the Draconian database." Axorn turned the knob once more, and the projecter retracted, causing the screens to dissipate. "Any questions?"
