1 to protect us
2 to inspire us
3 to define us
4 to teach us
5 to guide us
6 to lead us
7 to defend us
8 to guard us
9 to save us
1 was made to protect us, but his cowardice and fear have led him to assume the role of leader. He relies on terrorism to control and imprison us all. He has failed us.
3 was made to define us and 4 to teach, but they abandoned us when 1 would not consent to their inquisitive nature. They allowed themselves to be pushed away. They have failed us.
5 was made to guide us, but he shrinks in fear from 1. He hides behind me and fumbles with his own thoughts. He has failed us.
6 was made to lead us, but he is reclusive and often incoherent. He is so wrapped up in his own visions and drawings that he cannot manage to lead himself much less the rest of us. He has failed us.
7 was made to defend us, but when her anger rose to the breaking point over 1's tyranny, she did not fight to save us from it. She chose to run instead. She has failed us.
8 was made to guard us, but it is 1 he guards, and 1 encourages his bullying ways. He has failed us.
9 was made to save us, but in the end we are killed one by one. He has failed us.
In the end, with only four remaining, we are all failures. What was our purpose, again? I can no longer remember.
