Hello, Contender.
I, First among Caretakers, greet you with sadness in my heart.
We do not agree with the motives or methods of the Overseers,
but they choose and travel their own paths, as must we all.
As must you.
The Overseers would plunge you, unprepared, unwarned,
into a struggle of life and death.
The only prize is survival, survival of the fittest,
tested in the forge of total war.
But if, in our small way, we can ease your pain,
assuage your confusion, and perhaps make your path...
smoother...
You choose your path.
We can do no more for you without cheapening that all-important
choice, but we can, perhaps, begin to explain.
FIRST
