Kapeasta ikkunasta siroava valo alkoi himmetä. Pääni täyttyi ajatuksista. En ollut enää varma mistään. Jos Rafael oli elossa, mistä hän halusi syyttää minua? Siitäkö, että olin käskenyt hänen istuttaa kyborgeihinsa Hitler-Jugendin moraalin? Vaiko siitä, että olin suositellut hänen kyborgeilleen laittomia telomeeripistoksia? Lopulta hän oli kuitenkin itse ollut vastuussa kaikesta. Minä olin antanut vain isällisiä neuvoja. Hän oli iso poika, hän vastasi teoistaan itse. Ja jos kapinaa ei ollut, mitään pahaa ei ollut tapahtunut.
The scattering light from the narrow window began to dim. My head was filled with thoughts. I was no longer sure of anything. If Rafael had been alive, what would he have wanted to blame me for? For having ordered him to plant the morality of the Hitler Youth in his cyborgs? Or for having recommended illegal telomere injections to his cyborgs? In the end, he himself had been responsible for everything anyway. I had only given fatherly advice. He was a big boy; he was responsible for his own actions. And if there had been no rebellion, nothing bad would've happened.
