"Calaan Arvid, that bastard! He wants to cover up our failure! He wants to let these poor people believe in a god, a god that doesn't even exist! I told him clearly that we have to take responsibility, learn from our mistakes and look forward. Our science failed because we were not mature enough in our approach. But still some of us survived. We saw the end of the world and now we are to treat those survivors as stupid children? I can see that I am fighting a losing battle. People are too easy to manipulate. Give them the illusion of hope and they grab it blindly. But I have not forgotten. I will make sure that the people who come after know what Calaan really is. I will leave the clues for them to find. I will leave the clues to open the secret door for someone intelligent enough to unravel my riddle. Arvid can silence me today, but one day, they shall learn the truth. I am broken. Arvid sent his bloodhounds after me, people who are already convinced they are serving a God and not worshipping a machine, but they will not keep me from my task. Arvid will win this day. I cannot show all of these blind people the truth. Now, now I will meet my end. They left me here in this place to die a slow death! If you are reading this, then I can rest in peace. It means someone figured out my riddle and knows the truth. They can expose the lie that is Calaan."
