[voice] Into the great laugh of mankind
I have wondered for some time...
[A pause as the speaker rethinks his approach to the topic, then starts again.]
...It is generally accepted that humans are a separate kind of being from Pokemon. It is not something that is usually thought about, but I cannot help but wonder if this is the truth of the matter.
All life that we are aware of that have minds of their own are Pokemon, save humans. Why is this, if it is true? Why are those we call Enlightened able to gain abilities as Pokemon do, or even become both Human and Pokemon at will in the case of Shifters. Why can some speak as Pokemon do when most humans cannot?
Perhaps... Perhaps Humanity was punished not solely for its abuse of Pokemon in the past, but in part because in its arrogance the people of bygone times forgot that humans and Pokemon are one and the same...?
[Another moment of hesitation.]
...But perhaps I am incorrect. Still, I believe it is a thought at least worth consideration.
