No, Sarah. There’s more. There’s always more. I won’t give you up. I won’t! It’s not just a game. Midgard is real for many people and it’s real for what they’ve experienced. It’s real. We don’t doubt the way they feel or what they’ve seen or how they spend their time, so you must be real too! You have to be real, Sarah, because if you aren’t, how can I justify any of it? You are a few scraps of code. I’m a few liters of blood and some bones in a bag of skin. If I’m real, you’re real too!

Last words? I’m sure it has been an eventful journey. Someone will want to make your eulogy creative, I have no doubt. I can only wonder what will happen to the mind of the person that is forcefully debugged with their consciousness this deep into the WoAnLiNe. It’s going to make an interesting case study for some boring old zero that has that kind of time. I should erase your Animus while I’m at it. It would keep these sorts of problems from happening in the future, troublemaker.

Kognition? It’s just another world, another wanderer, another curvature of time and space. Now we understand that the complexities of universes exist in more than just observable space. If the origin of time was light and fire, then it must be the same for all of us. Light in our eyes, fire in our chests. There are no mistakes in the universe; there are no mistakes in the natural world. There just -is-. Mistakes, even order and chaos, only exist in the observable space of human sight. Philosophies are just how we approach things we don’t understand.

There seldom is a single wave. Another way to look at it is, ‘when it rains, it pours.’ Good luck or bad luck often followed by more of the same. Whatever path you begin, it’s almost impossible to change your direction. You’re sent hurtling through space, crashing through experiences decided by the first few decisions you ever made. Binary choices set against something as simple as a yes or no in your earliest stages of development. As a Future Child, that would be your primitive choices in Genus. Actions, friendships, whether to smile in one moment or frown in the next. Those are all paths that, once set upon, are entirely unchangeable. At least, that’s what I was designed to think.
