I write sins, not tragedies
A world full of just Ascended? It doesn’t sound like the vision the Voice wants, but then perhaps Wessex is projecting her own version of a utopia instead of their Lady’s. Taking a moment to think it through, she has to eventually shake her head. “I don’t know… other than I don’t think getting rid of non-Ascended is her goal. We’ll always be more special, but she’s always said she’s here for everyone. And then there’s the population problem. From a purely logistical point of view, it isn’t practical.”
And the Voice is, amongst mamy things, highly practical.
“Unfortunately, I’m still on a need-to-know basis. I know what She needs me to do, but I don’t get a lot of the bigger picture.” And when she does - no, she won’t tell Sam her doubts quite yet. That’s something for another time.
“I think they underestimate her cleverness,” she says quietly. “And She knows it.”
