“OUR KIND ARE NOT PRESENTED WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME ADDICTED.” “Then where did your … ‘medicine’ come from?” “I CREATED IT.” “Oh … dear.” “ONE AMYGDALINE OF THE SUPERORGANISM WOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO DEGENERATE AS I HAVE, OR AS MY DEAR BELOVED HAS. HIS DISEASE IS CRITICAL, PERHAPS AS TERRIBLE AS MINE. BUT WE HAVE NO WAY TO TREAT IT. WE ARE NOT EQUIPPED IN THAT SCIENCE, AND EVEN IF WE WERE, THERE ARE NO TREATMENTS FOR THOSE SUCH AS US WHO HAVE DEGENERATED SO MUCH. WE WOULD NOT BE TREATED. WE WOULD BE EUTHANIZED.”
