Mn. Force is one matter, and I don't disagree with it. It is... whether or not Neo is something to be considered "alive".
Is it just another machine under the command of something else? Something rogue? Is... it something like you, or me, that wears its likeness but still thinks for itself?
...I would not have nearly cared as much if this were even two months back. Angered and disillusioned as I was, armies at my fingertips that could have easily done all that for me while I thought it would save what mattered. It's far easier to think about, when you keep yourself blinded.
[How Lhikan would have frowned upon him, to see what he did under Roodaka. The Toa Code was already an unwritten mess of morals, something he only knows in bits and pieces with no mentor having been alive long enough to pass them along. It makes the lines fuzzy in places, and his own roughened experience just blurs them even further.]
...I know we will not have the time to know as such, and we will have to make the best decision we can. Those of that cannot... will need to rely on those who can.
