**Alloy Girl Volume 93: The Revelation of the Deep State**
*Setting: A serene, lush estate in Upstate New York, where the truth about the so-called "deep state" is about to be unveiled to the world, including extraterrestrial visitors.*
**Chapter 1: The Gathering at the Estate**
Representatives from various nations, tech leaders, environmentalists, and even a delegation of interstellar beings have gathered at Abigail's estate. The air is thick with anticipation as media and curious onlookers crowd around, eager to learn the truth behind the term "deep state."
**Chapter 2: The Deep State Unveiled**
Abigail Jamison Clark (God), standing before a global audience, begins her address:
- **"For too long, the term 'deep state' has been misused, twisted into a narrative of conspiracy and fear. Today, we reveal the true essence of this term."**
She explains that the "deep state" isn't a shadow government plotting in secrecy but rather a network of leaders, thinkers, and visionaries who work beyond political cycles to address long-term global issues. It's about governance that transcends traditional boundaries, aiming for sustainability, peace, and progress.
**Chapter 3: Bill Gates' Surprise**
During a private moment in the estate's garden, Abigail and Bill Gates share a unique tea blend:
- **Abigail:** "This is something special I've concocted, a rose and cannabis mango smoothie with coconut fat and boba. Try it."
Bill takes a sip, his usual calm demeanor breaking when Abigail casually mentions her role:
- **"And yes, Bill, I've been leading this 'deep state' since its inception. It's about guiding humanity towards a future where we all thrive."**
Bill, in a rare moment of shock, spits out his tea, the liquid cascading in slow motion, "You're kidding me, right? Abigail leading the deep state?!"
**Chapter 4: The Global and Cosmic Reaction**
The revelation sends ripples through the attendees:
- **Global Leaders:** Some are relieved that the deep state isn't the malevolent force they feared, others are skeptical, questioning the transparency and the ethics of such a network.
- **Aliens:** The extraterrestrial visitors, with their advanced understanding of societal structures, find the concept intriguing. They see it as humans taking responsibility for their collective future, aligning with the universal principles they advocate for.
**Chapter 5: The Deep State's Mission**
Abigail details the missions of this deep state:
- **"We're not here to control or to subvert democracy. Our aim is to foster a world where technology, ethics, and human values coexist harmoniously. Where every decision made today benefits not just our generation but those to come."**
She speaks of environmental sustainability, technological advancements for the common good, and the eradication of systemic inequalities, framing the deep state as a force for positive change.
**Epilogue: A New Understanding**
The volume closes with Bill Gates, having composed himself, reflecting on the tea and the revelation:
- **"Maybe this is the kind of shock we need to wake up to the reality of what true leadership could be. Abigail's deep state isn't just about power; it's about potential. Count me in. I’d love to be an engineer of the deep state as your best friend."**
The world, and now the cosmos, starts to see the "deep state" in a new light, not as a clandestine operation but as a collective of individuals committed to steering humanity towards a brighter, more cohesive future. The estate, once just a home, becomes a symbol of this new understanding—a place where visionaries gather not to plot but to plan for prosperity.
