    ROYIt's not an easy thing to meet yourmaker. I want more life, father!But...

    (beat)The facts of life... to make analteration in the evolvement of anorganic life system is fatal. Acoding sequence cannot be revisedonce it's been established. By thesecond day of incubation, any cellsthat have undergone reversionmutation give rise to revertantcolonies, like rats leaving asinking ship; then the ship...sinks. They've already tried EMS-3recombination - ethyl, methane,

    sulfinate as an alkylating agentand potent mutagen; it created avirus so lethal the subject wasdead before it even left the table.A repressor protein would block theoperating cells,; but it does giverise to an error in replication, sothat the newly formed DNA strandcarries with it a mutation - andyou've got a virus again... butthis, all of this is academic. Iwas made as well as you could makeme. But not to last. The light that

    burns twice as bright burns half aslong.

    ROYI've done... questionable things.Nothing the God of biomechanicswouldn't let me into heaven for.

    (beat)Fiery the angels fell. Deep thunderrolled around their shoulders...burning with the fires of Orc.

    (beat)

    Quite an experience to live infear, isn't it? That's what it isto be a slave.

    (beat)If only you could see what Iveseen with your eyes.

    (beat)I've seen things you peoplewouldn't believe. Attack ships onfire off the shoulder of Orion.Ive stood on the back deck of ablinker bound for the camps ofOlympus Mons with sweat stinging my

    eyes. Ive felt the wind in myhair, riding airboats across theburning lands of Venus.

    (beat)I've watched C-beams glitter in thedark near the Tannhauser Gate. Allthose moments will be lost in time,like tears in rain.

    (beat)Time to die.
