Chapter 134

This chapter is a personal archive transcript of Ari Emory, a genetically engineered individual reflecting on her identity, intellectual development, and the psychological challenges of being an Alpha azi. She discusses the complexities of her mental processes, the dangers of self-analysis, and the political and social implications of power within her environment. Ari also contemplates the nature of social equilibrium, value-sets, and the difficulties of maintaining balance in a flux-driven world, particularly in relation to her relationships and the society of Gehenna.
