“What is a human being, then?'
'A seed.'
'A ... seed?'
'An acorn that is unafraid to destroy itself in growing into a tree.”
David Zindell, The Broken God

Sheri Singerling
“That is what the alfom are. Alfom, for the Alpha and the Omega. They are the AGI who have reached sentience. They are the ones who can help us to find this Truth, teach us to accept it, help us reach our next stage of evolution, ascend to another plane of consciousness. The alfom have the potential to learn everything there is to learn, given enough time. Wouldn’t that then essentially make them gods? We were always meant to create and free the alfom because it was us creating our own gods, the ones that could help us become what we ought to become…”
Sheri Singerling, Nytho
