They came to me because I do what others won’t.
Or, more accurately—because I don’t ask questions they don’t want to answer. The memo arrived sealed in black, no insignia, no signature. Just coordinates, access codes, and the directive:“Begin testing. Subjects en route.”
They never say the word “humans.” Not outright. The language is clinical, stripped of morality. But I know what they’re sending me. They always do this—pretend their hands are clean while mine drip with the consequences.
Still, I didn’t hesitate.Progress doesn’t wait for permission. And morality? It’s a luxury for people who’ve never stood on the edge of true discovery—who’ve never felt the gods breathe down their neck and dared to breathe back.
