In our arrogance we deny our basic
nature, and build our civilizations based on avoidance of all that does
not reinforce our perceived superiority. Our culture is based on
technologies the masses do not understand, but are enslaved to. We have
eliminated the process of natural selection, and in doing so have
ceased to evolve. Plagues have swept our world, and decimated our
numbers in our failure to adapt. We realized as a species we have
doomed ourselves to extinction, but once the path was chosen, we walked
it diligently.
In desperation we escaped to the stars, once again
gambling our very survival on technologies far removed from individual
comprehension. We searched worlds beyond number, finding only fire and
ice. Then we found you. You must understand, our race is dying, and our
only chance for survival was to merge with your species. It is galactic
evolution at work, and it has happened many times. This planet called
Earth, has become our new home, and you are our children. We adapted
you to survive here, and have wached over you. We are saddened by the
fact you inherited our nature, and soon you too, shall have to escape a
world you have ravaged. We tell you this, in the hopes that you will
not repeat our mistakes.
