The world in which M1Y1 would find herself was perhaps even stranger than the 'cyber world' that she was traditionally used to. Where she was now was not a pure cyberscape, it was in many ways a false representation of a cyberscape almost entirely generated by No's presence within Della's ring, before the arrival of the artificial woman the ring had possessed no link to anything of the sort but No's mere presence and frequent efforts to 'upgrade' the ring had created a pocket of cyberspace based entirely off of No's workings with only vague tethers to the cyberscapes of the outside world, just the bare essentials needed to provide the simulator with access to the intergalactic network and even these connections were viciously guarded by No in order to ensure that she did no damage to the ring by allowing anything else any more direct access to the ring. No knew her efforts were mostly unnecessary, the ring itself seemed to have a sort of consciousness, nothing truly sentient like an AI as far as she could tell but it seemed to possess a will of some sort and with all the mystical power contained within the ring it possessed more than enough means to keep itself safe from any incidental harm. A few times while working on the simulator's connection virus' had attempted to penetrate the defenses No had set up only to be torn apart by No and the magic of the ring working together.
To No it was frankly a bit... terrifying.. the ring did not seem to necessarily 'like' her, it certainly tolerated her presence and when she put forth a request for it to do something it would generally speaking do what she requested, but every time she lingered in the cyberscape aspect of the ring she could feel a lingering sense of distaste from the pockets of semi-mystical data that permeated the cyberscape. Unfortunately working on connections to the outside world required rather frequent and often not particularly short trips into the rings cyberscape which of course meant dealing with the constant distaste that the ring seemed to be aiming directly at her. She had tried her best to attempt communication with the ring, see if it was some form of mystically generated AI but if it WAS it certainly had no interest in speaking with her. Talkign to Della about the 'problem' resulted in little additional information as Della had never experienced anything like that, she had mentioned that she often felt like the ring did have a 'personality' of sorts and likely due to time alone perhaps had developed some sort of consciousness. Where unless a piece of technology was designed to grow more complex with time it would stagnate or at worse degenerate with time, magic from what Della had informed her and more importantly magical items tended to react to time in wildly different ways. Some simply lost power and faded back to normalcy, some grew more power, and others grew more complicated. The ring was at bare minimum as old as Della herself, and while Della could not give any accurate numbers on how old she was she was reasonably certain that the ring was the oldest mystical item she knew of and possessed quite a bit of power, a dangerous combination.
But so long as the ring remained non-hostile everything was ultimately fine, No could deal with it not liking her so long as it was willing to work with her. The problem now however was that something was VERY VERY VERY wrong with the cyberscape, she'd spent the last few moments getting herself back in order after M1Y1's odd 'attack' and in that time she could FEEL the anger radiating from the cyberscape. She needed to fix whatever had gone wrong in the attack and FAST before she found out what the ring would do if it actually wanted to react in a negative manner. In the cyberscape No's data would reshuffle and coalesce taking on the familiar shape of No herself as she entered the familiar realm.
Entering the cyberscape No looked around briefly and pinpointed what she believed to be the problem rather quickly, she was not alone in the cyberscape, quite the opposite in fact as before her stood the familiar appearance of M1Y1 "You really really should not attempt hacking someone when you don't know anything about them. You might have just put the BOTH of us in a lot of danger." No said quickly glancing around slightly and feeling at least somewhat relieved by the fact that nothing was going wrong immediately, and strangely there was a distinct lack of both the rage she had felt or the normal distaste. In fact there was a lack of much of anything in the way of even the pockets of weird magic-data. "This bit of cyberspace isn't exactly 'normal' so we should probably get going... like NOW" No explained hoping that the other woman would be willing to listen.
Meanwhile back in the real world Della stood between M1Y1's un-moving form and the still occasionally twitching form of No's projection, the twitching seemed to die down significantly which meant that No was most likely not in any danger any more and rather she was simply not actively controlling it any longer. It was not common for No to leave a projection unattended which combined with M1Y1's current inactivity meant that something was likely wrong, with this in mind Della decided it best to deal with the situation as best she could, pressing a finger to her earpiece she dispelled No's projection leaving her along with M1Y1 "You had better not be too heavy..." Della muttered to herself as she moved to wrap an arm around M1Y1's waist and hoist the woman onto her shoulder, once the other woman was on her shoulder Della would aim her ring at a wall and create a portal to the inside of the ring and swiftly enter it causing the portal to close up behind her.
