Certainly you recognize it? The method. It is just their ability to Call us, amplified by the Augmenter embedded within our bodies.
[ He'd come to that decision about what it was soon after the Karterian people had begun to overstep their boundaries, curiosity overtaking their sensibilities. They liked their beasts to be silent and complacent β would it be any wonder that the slow dehumanization of their Augmented would one day yield new beasts of burden and domestic fare? The same way he had long suspected the orchards and farmlands might be populated by old Terra-souled, only to find them clustered and fed upon below ground. It would be a decision he would make for his people, naturally. ]
I have been encouraging them to be concerned with "external threats". Once they begin the descent into viewing outsiders as dangers, I see no reason they cannot be coerced toward viewing their own as such. If Karteria will not free us here, nor allow us to go home unhindered and unweaponized... I imagine burning it all down a viable strategy.
[ Unlike some bleeding hearts, his world and its longevity, its sanctity and protection, will always come before another's own. He doesn't care how callous or monstrous that makes him appear to be. He is a god, and a Terra, and has long since seen civilizations rise and fall. He and his siblings had reset existence many a time β drowning humanity in floods, and recreating them anew. It's not a stretch for him to consider wiping out Karteria, if possible. ]
I came here to see where best you would like to apply our strategy next, Silco.
[ He had not, because Silco had avoided it. He'd fought encountering it, both from Patho-Gen and himself. The prospect of being forced to follow orders leaves him with a nauseating feeling. Something that he can't imagine encountering, without feeling something maddening fill him.
He shakes his head. ] We need to find how they are amplifying it. It's more than simply the augmented. I hear they have devices.
I want to find a way around the Call. To fight it.
[ Because it's Silco. Because the idea of someone having power of him like that makes him sick. ]
We need them to see the lower classes as an enemy. Uncontrollable.
Perhaps we should find a way to get them to start recognizing the power that others have upon us. Make them fear what could happen. Fear them, and how much we clearly support them over the upper classes.
