You've felt it, haven't you? Your decline. [Warwick/Vander growls in his sleep] Your power is finite, diminished by every use.
I've been expecting you, Doctor.
Viktor. Incredible! What I wouldn't give, to glimpse the world through your eyes. To know what you know. [As he touches Viktor's Arcane hand, Viktor sees a vision of Singed reading to his comatose daughter in the past]

[glances at Warwick/Vander] Marvelous specimen, isn't he? The regenerative qualities of his blood, will stabilize you. Apex Shimmer combined with you, the apex form of Hextech. [kneels next to Warwick/Vander]
...What you are suggesting would destroy him. And for what? Conquest? The greed of warmongers?
To complete your work. To save us from ourselves! You must survive, Viktor.
[eyes turn pearly with the Arcane, voice deepens] ...Do you believe in fate, Doctor? Our paths carved before us, guided by an invisible hand?
Not fate. Evolution. Nature's greatest force, forever in flux.
[shakes his head] No. Evolution has a destination. Not to combat Nature, but to supersede it. The final, glorious evolution. But he isn't a specimen. He's a man... and he needs my help. I will not sacrifice his humanity, for your cause. You may leave.
...Very well. But I assume you understand already: if you perish, this community is soon to follow. [stands, leaves]
