Plans For A City

Yuki's words caused everyone to look at Mary and Bell. Mary lowered her head, her cheeks blushing, acting all bashful while Bell just looked away. Greg was the first to speak. "You're right. I can't see Mary as an A.I. now that I think about it."

"Right? As I see it, she is no different from you or me. This makes her a sentient being, and she deserves the same treatment as you or I. The same goes with the A.I. in the game. They are no different than Mary. They are even more so since they are beings living in a world of their own living day to day lives. The only difference is that they are in a game while Mary is in the real world." Yuki hoped this explanation would make them understand that just because it is a game world that they should not treat NPCs as NPCs. 

"I understand. I will be careful not to treat NPCs as just a pile of code from now on." Greg said seriously.
