This is something that makes me glad that I am not organic.

Harper may have created me, but he made me to be my own entity. I do not believe that he would ever take any part of me to make others without my consent. He would ask first, and if I said that it was not what I wanted, he would refrain. Museveni did not even ask Beka. He just took her DNA like a thief and made her the mother of millions.

As well as Harper programmed me; I still do not have the capacity to imagine what she must be feeling at this moment.

It is not as though he took her genetic material and ran experiments she would never know about. The evidence of his work is something that she faced every day of her life. She witnessed their actions first hand. She fought beside them and against them and knows their every sin. How many has she been forced to kill in battle, only to now know that she was firing against her own flesh and blood?

I cannot even begin to imagine how this must weigh upon her.

I do not want to be able to imagine it.

In this moment, I am grateful not to be real.
