Weighing in on the situation [voice post]
[The PCD is set somewhere stationary, the voice drifting in and out slightly as if someone is pacing back and forth in front of it.]
Killing... the Elders always say you should never kill someone unless it's for food or for self-defense. Killing someone out of revenge doesn't seem to accomplish anything especially since people come back. I guess it might make you humans feel good after it, but it seems so shallow and empty.
But killing someone who hadn't done anything to save everyone else... I guess that would fall under self-defense, but the problem is now everyone's angry and now people want more revenge so it doesn't seem like anything was accomplished but creating more anger and sadness.
Zedd? I don't get you. I always thought you were sensible and reasonable and it doesn't make sense. Because... you had to have had a reason.
[the pacing stops and there's a long sigh]
I guess I still want to believe you. You remind me of my teacher.
...
Augury, I'm going to pick Bob up then go back to our house. I... don't want all the research and materials to get damaged while we're gone. You know... his stuff.
