So, you found The Blessing and you worked out this morphic field.
The Blessing exists in a symbiotic relationship with the human race. It transmits a morphic field around the planet, binding us together like magnetism, like sunlight.
But finding it wasn't enough. You had to experiment on it.
No, we fed it.
We fed it the blood of an immortal. We had one remarkable artifact. We found a second remarkable artifact. The combination was inevitable.
So the Blessing absorbed the blood, copied it like a new template. So, the system changed its setting.
You know why it did that? I think you hurt it. It was being attacked, so it took the blood pattern and made it a gift. It's exerting itself to sustain every person on the planet. This whole Miracle, it's trying to be kind.
You've seen immortality. I'm living it. Why would you want this?
This is only stage one.
But you ruined the world out there!
The Miracle shocked the economy. The economy collapsed. We tear down in order to rebuild. And now it's almost within sight. The new world.
Yeah, with no room for the poor, the weak or the ones that don't fit in.
That's the way the world works. Now, we're just making it official. The families have just been waiting. Now we can step in to control the banks. The banks control government. The government controls people. Soon we'll be able to decide who lives, how long, where and why.
It's about time!
Oh, great. So it's the world according to Kitzinger, is it?
Listen, you can bleed your liberal heart all over the place, but are you really gonna tell me the world was working before? Because I have worked for the rich and the powerful and the obese. I have stared into the high end of Western society and let me tell you, it is like shovelling an open sewer. These families, they want to make the world fitter, more compact, more disciplined. And I like the sound of that. That sounds like salvation.
But before you launched this brave new world, you had to deal with one more thing. Yeah. Me.
