Quoted By:
But you suppose as a biological immortal, the sheer amount of things you experienced alright puts you above the vast majority of Jaxtians. You've lived to see six different Supreme Rulers, technology expand into new dimensions, the extinction and resurrection of multiple alien races, and now the secrets of the universe being uncovered with the Academy of Starsight. Perhaps your species and people may even be able to stand against the worms some day...
Not like your other people. They couldn't stand against them.
It's been an exhausting time archiving your memories and experiences as the “other” you. The one whose memories and self are just as deep as your real self, though you know it's because of the melding of your minds with the creature in the life machine, you still see through your past as though it was you. The one Andoen alien; the “People of the Soul”. Not like the “People of the Body”, or the rainbow people as you liked to call them, or “People of the Mind”. None of them could stand against the worms; who came to your star and put it out.
But this planet? Cool and sunny. You lay upon the green grass hills looking up at the pink sky and feel contented. You've been man, and woman, Supreme and servant, wise and foolish, living and dead. You've done a lot of thinking about it. You'd like to take a break from thinking. You lay back and relax.
Ahh....
…!
Oh, pretty flower! Thank you, Kima.
