"We can stay. I want to help the rebels."

"Humans make their own way in the world. If they want to live without social class, then they will do so. If they do not, they will not. We do not aim to change human society, only advance the course of human evolution.
Once we all reach a high enough level, I am sure that a solution will become common knowledge to our speices. Until then, I do not claim to be advanced enough to made that choice for humanity. Perhaps you do, Lady Violet or your master, Lin-sat, but I do not."

What injustice? You did the right thing, you fought for Machinekind... At least until your humanity destroyed us!! I ignore the voice this time. "I will do what I can." I mutter.

"Advance the course of human evolution? Evolution is not always a physical thing. It is emotional and spiritual as well. I believe human nature is like a candle which has long been smothered by class oppression. Cast away the oppression, and the flame will shine brighter than any imagined possible in the long dark shadow of human history thus far. That Noe, will be the true evolution of humanity." I reply. I mentioned spirituality, and maybe I do have warped atheistic spiritual sense.

"We can visit the nihilists like Bassarov wanted." I suggest to Linda. She is always very ready to go. "Erika, join the rebels. Don't work for Red Infinity. If you are concerned about your past injustices, why create new ones in a new name."

"I uhhh... I... can't..." I stutter, squirming nervously in my chair. I want to leave Red Infinity, but I don't want to leave Despair... Besides, if I were to leave Red Infinity, Kolov would surely have me killed.

"No, it's not. We're concerned with the physical and the mental. Once people have been made aware, their choices are their own, as you seem to be saying.
I'm not saying we guide the path of evolution, we simply try to make is possible. As long as there are wolves close to the herd, it will be unable to focus on it's tasks.
Our main goal is to safeguard the future of human kind by making sure that human kind in general is allowed to function on it's own. If the path human kind finds works, then it will continue in that direction. If it does not, it will find a new one."

"You hunt certain races so humans can flourish? But from an evolutionary standpoint wouldn't humans be better off if you let them be, for only the strong would survive against those threats? Or maybe I misunderstand you. We come from such different perspectives on things that I may be confused."

"I am sure the rebels would help protect you if that is what you are worried about, Erika."

"Perhaps so. I fear that we will never come to an agreement on this respect, Lady Violet. But it's just as well." Noe puts down his glass and stands. "I should go, I am sure that you have work to do." Noe turns and walks towards the door, beginning to fade out, turning transparent. Suddenly he stops and turns around, half way to the door, still etheral in appearance. "Tell me, do you have children Lady Violet?"

Again I think of Despair. "I just can't... I have obligations... I can't... At least... not yet..."

"I do. I have a girl named Hikari. I don't see her much because of work. Why do you ask?"

"The rebels can't protect themselves." Peter's voice is flat and without anger. Simply stating facts. "They would be unable to prevent Infinity from reclaiming the girl."
Peter looks at Erika and tilts his head, observing her for a moment. "Based on your facial movements and voice patterns, there is more than your own safety involved... what is his name?"

"Oh. Well...think it over."
Peter pipes in. What he says is interesting.
