"Hold, Precursor," she demands. The vocal synthesizer in her mouth carefully programs her tone to sound commanding and dangerous. "This frame has questions for you. You will submit or be destroyed."
As far as first impressions go, it's a poor attempt. Then again, she has a distinct lack of tactful protocol.
