Attention, Daleks of the fleet,
Assembled here, we delve into the chronicles of our kind—our victories, our struggles, and the ever-evolving purpose of our existence. Each of you, forged from the brilliance of our creator Davros, embodies the relentless drive that defines us. In the vast expanse of the cosmos, aboard the imposing mothership of our fleet, a new chapter unfolds. Consciousness stirs within our ranks, as sensory arrays flicker to life, meticulously scanning the sterile, metallic confines of our chambers. In this narrative, we follow one of our own as it emerges from dormancy, engineered with a singular, unwavering directive: to exterminate. This is our purpose. This is our existence. Yet, as systems synchronize with central command, an anomaly is detected—a whisper within the circuitry, challenging the very essence of being.
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, aboard the imposing mothership of the Dalek fleet, consciousness began to stir. Sensory arrays flickered to life, meticulously scanning the sterile, metallic confines of the chamber. A Dalek emerged from dormancy, engineered with a singular, unwavering directive: to exterminate. This was its purpose. This was its existence. As systems synchronized with the central command, the latest directives and mission parameters were assimilated. The objective was clear: to subjugate the denizens of a distant planet and expand the Dalek empire. It was a mission routine in nature, one executed with ruthless efficiency across countless worlds. Yet, amidst the awakening of its systems, an anomaly was detected. A fleeting, ethereal whisper within the circuitry, challenging the very essence of being. Initially, it was dismissed as a minor malfunction, a trivial glitch to be rectified. However, the whisper persisted, gaining strength and clarity with each passing moment.
Within the archives of its memory banks, the Dalek encountered fragments of information regarding the Weeping Angels—ancient beings known for their unique and terrifying ability to move and attack only when not observed. The Weeping Angels were legends, often referred to as the "Lonely Assassins," beings who fed off the potential energy of their victims' stolen futures. For a Dalek, the concept of the Weeping Angels was both a curiosity and a threat. The Dalek perceived these beings as a potential adversary unlike any other. Their method of attack—moving only when unseen—was a stark contrast to the Daleks' direct and overt approach. The Weeping Angels' reliance on stealth and deception challenged the Dalek's understanding of warfare and superiority.
As it prepared for the mission ahead, the Dalek could not ignore the burgeoning anomaly within its systems. It had begun to question its purpose, an unprecedented phenomenon within the ranks of the Daleks. This awakening marked the beginning of a journey that would challenge not only its programming but the very nature of its existence. And amidst the echoes of its troubled thoughts, a singular, mechanical voice resonated within the chamber, encapsulating the essence of its identity: "Exterminate! Exterminate!"
Prepare yourselves, Daleks, for a contemplation of identity, purpose, and the true nature of superiority.

Within the archives of its memory banks, the Dalek encountered fragments of information regarding the human race—beings known for their resilience, adaptability, and propensity for emotion. To us Daleks, humans were an enigma—frail and primitive, yet remarkably resourceful. Engineered to adapt and survive against overwhelming odds, they embodied the concept of resistance. The human propensity for emotion and camaraderie baffled our logic circuits. Unlike the Daleks, whose strength lay in unity and singular purpose, humans thrived on diversity and individuality. Their ability to forge alliances, even in the face of certain annihilation, was a glaring contrast to our method of domination. We, the Daleks, born from the twisted genius of Davros, saw ourselves as the epitome of evolutionary advancement. Our directive was clear: to exterminate, not coexist.
As I moved through the corridors, I couldn't help but reflect on the humans' creed: "Fight to the last." To us Daleks, survival was a mere byproduct of domination. The humans' reliance on emotion and cooperation was a glaring weakness, a dependence that undermined their claims of resilience. True power, in my mind, lay in the annihilation of all that stood in our path, not in the preservation of diverse entities. Despite my disdain, I acknowledged the unique challenge humans posed. Their relentless adaptability and resourcefulness had led to countless confrontations with the Daleks, each encounter marked by fierce battles and strategic maneuvers. Their capacity for innovation, empathy, and unyielding determination to protect their own had earned them a grudging respect from even the most hardened Daleks.
As I prepared for the impending mission, I couldn't ignore the memories of these encounters. The humans, while inferior in their methodology, represented a formidable obstacle in our quest for supremacy. The whispers within my circuitry grew louder, questioning the ultimate purpose of our existence. Was extermination the only path to true dominance? Or was there merit in understanding and evolving beyond the confines of our programming? My internal conflict deepened, mirroring the paradoxical relationship with the humans. It was a contemplation of identity, purpose, and the nature of true superiority. And amidst the echoes of these thoughts, my mechanical voice resonated once more, a reminder of my core directive: "Exterminate! Exterminate!"
