There's not much I can do about this extra life I've been given, especially knowing that they can just bring me back again from their archive...

I guess I'll have to take her word for it, since they didn't let me remember how that went down.
I remember a childhood in São Paulo, a life spent designing tek gear and munitions for the feds, but I'm not really that guy anymore, am I?
If my engram is cloned again to colonize some alien world in the far future, that Santiago wouldn't remember this version of me either.
Maybe he'd be better off that way.
