Transcript

  • Taneel: Whoa, now: Let's take a breath before we start throwing accusations around.
  • Ahmis: Your dictionary was very revealing about your species. There were 8,000 words expressing how much your offspring mean to you. They are, in some sense, your defining creation.
  • Ahmis: Whereas my people procreate by parthenogenesis. Our offspring mean very little to us. We define ourselves by what we create.
  • Ahmis: Our Spirits are the ultimate expression of who we are. They are our lasting mark on the universe. They are, in your terms, our children.
  • Ahmis: So when a Spirit is stolen, think of it as stealing what makes you, you. Snatching a soul. Kidnapping a child.
  • [Holographic interface goes "FEE-DEET DEET"]
  • Fernando: Hey! how'd you open that file?!? That's got Familia locks on it!
  • [Ahmis studies hologram intensely]
  • Ahmis: And in this case, kidnapping a very specific child.
