Somewhere in the Clan Homeworlds...

"I am sorry, Albert, but the time has come to do what we should have done twenty years ago. The Warriors Caste is going out of control again. Their genes are a failure, and we must carry out the Founder's will."

"The Society has not approved of your course of action, Joachim Kaneko. Your defiance illustrates only the failure of your own genes. Our ruling is final - cancel the operation and return the agents to cold storage. We will not warn you again."

"No."

...

"You have nothing to say?"

"What purpose would further discussion serve? Your own irrational hatred of the Warrior Caste threatens not only to undo everything we have worked for, but to plunge humanity into another dark age.

"And moreover, have you considered what has happened if Omega 8 mutates? Your faith in 'controlled genocide' is a pipe dream, Joachim."

"Eva, I expected that at least you would understand the neccessity of what we are doing here. What would the Warriors do if they discovered your settlements? Would they show any hesitation in ending your 'experiment?' I think not."

"We have found another way, Joachim. You must as well.

"You may be right, Eva, but it is too late. Operation Daniel has already started. Even if I wanted to, I cannot recall my operatives."

"Fool, do you not realize you may have doomed us all? Did you give even the slightest consideration to our other operations in the region?"

"Do not trouble yourself, Alexandra. None of the operatives are bound for your private playground."

"And if it spreads there without your help? Years of research data could be contaminated beyond recovery by your interferance."

"As I said, Alexandra, it is too late to change course. If it spreads to your test population, you can always start over once the operation is complete. It wouldn't be the first time you have changed venues."

"That's not the same, Joachim, and you know it. We finished our research at Arluna before we left. You are talking about ruining twenty years of experimentation that will have to be done over from scratch."

"Enough, this bickering is pointless. As Joachim Kaneko said himself, the arrow is already loosed."

"Then we must end this charade. I call the council to a vote. For treason, insubordination, and genocide, I vote to expel the Prion Cell from the Society, effective immediately, and to mark all members of the Cell for termination on sight."

"Affirmative"

"Affirmative"

"...Affirmative"

"The vote being unanimous..."

"Fools! You are the ones who are dooming us! Your blindness will be the end of everyth--"
