0:00.0	SCP 4043, Gaia
0:06.0	Mother Nature is a personification of nature and the planet Earth focused around fertility and life-giving,
0:15.0	with the word nature meaning birth or character in Latin.
0:27.9	The Norse had a female personification of earth as a deity, as did the Greeks, the Incas,
0:29.4	and plenty of other cultures.
0:36.2	The SCP Foundation has encountered a fair number of mythologically relevant deities in their time, but an entity representing all life on
0:39.5	earth would be quite the crucial one.
0:43.3	A scenario involving Mother Nature and the foundation could really only go one of two ways,
0:49.6	one being pretty good and one being pretty bad.
0:53.8	Let's find out which one SCP 40-43 is.
0:58.8	The article begins with a dialogue between two entities, one confused about who they are and
1:05.4	where they are, and the other a foundation AI sent to assist the confused one in settling into their role.
1:14.8	The confused one remembers what the foundation is, but it seems that most of their memories are gone.
1:22.7	The AI suggests that they be patient, as their memories will eventually return, and says that their
1:29.5	new nature will exert itself. The AI tells them that they are an answer to a problem, but
1:37.5	won't give any other information, as its only parameters are to make them comfortable. The confused entity says that it's becoming angry, so the AI acquiesces and says that it will pull up the files and read them.
1:53.0	The confused entity asks if the AI has a name, to which the AI responds that they may call it Natasha.
2:02.5	They thank Natasha, but Natasha responds that there's no need to be premature with thanks.
2:09.8	With that, we're given the file for SCP 4043-Ark-1, meaning that it's been archived and is no longer the current version.
2:22.4	SCP 4043 is given the object class of Arcon, meaning that while it could theoretically
2:28.4	be contained, it's currently not due to the potentially disastrous effects that would occur. The containment procedures elaborate on this a little, as currently the containment of
2:40.0	SCP 4043 involves the foundation committing to two partially contradictory aims.
