<span class="mu-r">”...I do not know who you will be, in the future, where you will watch this. I do not know what sort of creations my empire will spawn. You will either be my descendant, or a hated foe that has succeeded in extinguishing my flame. In either case, you will watch, either to secure your reign or to cement your superiority over my Hegemonic dream.
...My name is Akule Naonae, and I have seen the <span class="mu-i">Unspeakable</span>. One day, people will look back at what I have done and call me a great monster, or a great tyrant. They will call me a perverted monster, a mass-shooter, a terrorist sympathizer; I have embraced these roles. To me, my victory is already complete, my legacy is less important, as I have done what no man has ever done. I have mounted and broken the back of industrial society, the beast which I call <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">Leviathan</span></span>, the greatest existential threat to the future of the Jaxtian species among the stars. But this is not the primary purpose of this video.
My legacy is unknown to me. If my dream succeeds, I am hopeful the future will be kind to my legacy, knowing I did what I could with what I had, and perhaps even acknowledge my great struggle. If my dream fails, then I see no point in trying to hide my family name or actions, as I'm sure technology in the future will be easily able to confirm my guilt. As such, I lay all these things out as they are. I have killed a lot of people, but a falsehood will spread, that I have <span class="mu-i">enslaved</span> people. This is not true. I am not a tyrant, in truth, I am a <span class="mu-i">liberator</span>.”</span>
