What made me think I could help lead this project?
Sure, I'd only had an overview of what they're trying to do here, but you'd have to get a lightyear away to start taking it all in.
I've been trying to catch up by speed-scrolling through all their documentation, and it's making me wish I had Uma's processing power.
Oh yeah...forgot to mention I'm working for one of them now-a transhuman named Uma.
If only the me of over a decade ago could see me now.
I know we've all supposedly been at peace for years, but it's still sort of hard to take in how fast things have changed.
I mean it-I can barely remember how I ended up where I am now, working for people who were trying to kill me not so long ago.
It took this long for the stubborn bastards running the Terran Federation to accept what their enemy was telling them-that our planet is terminally ill.
The evidence must've been damned convincing, for them to let the transhumans help us with our getaway plan.
