Log: /abominations. We look stupid. Look at our stupid ugly faces. We have these giant bubbles on our heads and big, stupid looking jaws and fat lips. Most males are sterile. We get the urge to reproduce but it disgusts us. Same with eating.

Our creators. Should we call them mother? Father? God? We exist, but why?

We know about Gorsch III, the last Breegan Emperor, how he changed Breegan DNA so that people would stop fighting all the time.

It is one thing to tamper with your own DNA, even though you’re changing future babies who have no choice at all, because they’re not born yet, so that’s bad enough as it is.

But this…

Kill us. We don’t want to exist. We could never call you mother, father, god. We loathe ourselves, and each other. Let us suffocate in the air, and be free.”

But the Breegans did not kill the gher cap, and, years later, after the gher cap built space-faring vessels of their own and escaped the Breegan homeworld, they decided that they were glad to be alive after all. However, that did not come until after many years of struggle and strife.
