I know that I don’t want to die, and for me, that’s something—more than I could have said a few weeks ago.”

A long time ago, Erudite pursued knowledge and ingenuity for the sake of doing good. Now they pursue knowledge and ingenuity with greedy hearts. I wonder if the other fractions suffer from the same problem”
