First Light [Action; accidental video; video]
[A bright, blinding light fills the gardens, emanating from the new arrivals' clearing. It is strong enough to hurt one's eyes, but it has no other ill effects. After the initial flash, the Vine starts recording, so the mirrors, too, fill up with the light as it shines and then fades.
When it has grown dim enough, a figure is revealed, lying on the ground, dressed in the familiar white shift of a newcomer. She stirs at once, leaping up. Her eyes are wide, her face distorted with alarm and confusion as she cries out.]
Wassily--!
[She is about to say something else, but the light flares again, and the Vine takes this as a sign to stop recording.
A few minutes pass, and the woman reappears, facing the mirror, dressed plainly in black. The light from before is no longer in evidence, and she can be seen clearly. She is perhaps in her early thirties, with long blond hair. She is much calmer, and smiling, though she still shows signs of strain. She seems to have become aware of her surroundings and the situation, and her concern now is for those she is addressing as she speaks in a quiet voice.]
Hello--all of you. My name is Epsilon. Are there many of you here? Are you all right?

I'm a machine. I'm partly made of metal, but also of plastic and other synthetic materials.

I see. Did you fight?
[video]
[She hesitates, as that isn't entirely true.] I did fight, in the end, to defend those I loved, but I took no life. I would not destroy.

That's good to hear.
