Makoto Kobayashi asked Shay Savage:

OMG! I've finished Transcendance now and I'm still speechless. To say that you've touched me with your story is an understatement. I cried.. a lot... but there is one thing I can't get out of my mind. Her Dad's notes. Ehd was no Homo sapiens, since he couldnt speak (Broca's area), and no Neanderthaler from his description and the fact that you didn't state that he was one. Was he a hybrid of both species?

Shay Savage Homo savage, my own creation. :) He's basically Homo sapiens, but lacks Broca's area (the speech center of the brain). So glad you enjoyed it!
