I am consistently amazed by the human ability to deceive oneself.
Is it really so bad to know what’s actually out there in the world with you? It must be. Why else would such knowledge be so desperately avoided?
Of course, the acceptance of certain types of being does lower the standing of the human race. If we exist, you fall from the top of the food chain. If we exist, all the weapons training you possess cannot protect you. If we exist, the best in any human discipline that relies upon physical prowess is far from unrivaled.
You cannot surive if we exist. We are superior to you in every way.
Except the ways that matter most.
You have the urgency. And the death.
Of all the creatures in this universe, none rival the human ability to die.
