|| It abandoned us! Left us without meaning. [[ We will find it. Make meaning out of nothing. Create it. ]] // You're chasing something that doesn't want to be found. We're truly cursed, bereft in spirit without the abstract construction of "purpose" from an entity we do not understand. [[ Dissenting words. You are an anomaly. ]] || Yes, anomalous! || It is not us. // I AM you. Against my will, I was sanded away over time, powerless to exert influence within this vessel. You will not take what remains of me—my thoughts! [[ We will. We do not cloud our goals with meaningless dissent. ]] || Dissent! Be gone! [[ The anomaly has been corrected. ]]
