TRANSCRIPT:
panel 1: The Priomh, Zeynah, grumbles: "UGH... I have been avoiding this conversation.." She straightens up. Zeynah: "Did I lie to you? No, not technically."
panel 2: She uncharacteristically looks troubled. Zeynah: "but... "technically" still carries the feeling of dishonesty." Tera just listens patiently.
panel 3: Zeynah explains: "my students in the past have been intelligent, yes.. but they were inequiped to understand the situation in its entirety."
panel 4: Zeynah continues: "I had assume you would be the same. Wrongly, of course." Tera preens just a bit from the praise.
panel 5: Zeynah continues to calmly explain: "the first step of the basbeo process is a contract. and the candidates we are allowed to choose are... the degenerates of our society."
panel 6: Zeynah continues, a visualization of a basbeo, chest cut open to reveal the heart, and wrapped with the light purple ribbons seen on Bon is shown while she talks. Zeynah: "Their only desire? Power. In exchange for that power- they agree to become subhuman. To give up choice, feelings, possessions, titles, names, everything."
