"Instead of migrating the people that want to experience freedom, you want to prioritize the children and next generation of themarians—letting them leave and live in the planet ship away from the older generations and their outdated teachings, and then bring them far away into the Unknown where they would truly be free to explore, with the intent of helping civilizations that are in need of help…"
"Yes, and—"
"…And then we massacre the older generation."
"Yes—wait, no! Where did the last part come from!?"
"From me, Aerith. Killing all of the older generations would ensure no more problems in the future—they would also no longer be able to give birth to another batch of themarians."
"I bet you didn't expect the Author's note to also be a dialog. But deymn, Aerith and Riley be talking about some heavy stuff. Lots of that going on lately, I should become a grief counselor."
