Why are you doing this?!
To become human, of course!
But like THIS?!
What's wrong with it?
Do you really not understand how awful this is?
No, not really. And why should I care? As long as I become human, who cares about the rest?
Once you become human, YOU will!
What are you talking about?
Empathy! Empathy! It's a key part of the human condition!
I don't understand.
No, you don't! And that's one of the big reasons you're not human!
I-
The ability to understand how others feel, to feel for them, is essential to being human. Do you know what people who can't or simply refuse to consider others is called?
A bastard?
A sociopath. An inhuman monster. INHUMAN.
But... but... soldiers! Knights!
Are from another era, another mindset. Things have changed. To kill a hundred strangers with your bare hands is no longer a sign of greatness. Soldiers invariably need therapy after coming home.
But... I..!
What you are doing is WRONG.
No!
YES! You may not understand it now, but if you succeed, if you become human, YOU WILL HATE YOURSELF.
