Who runs MNU? I don't mean the person, but the thoughts. I like to think that when this all began the intentions were good, that humanity stretched out a helping hand to Outlanders and didn't expect anything in return. But no, that's stupid...there's that saying, 'there's no such thing as a free lunch.' No such thing as free salvation, either. We had to pay for the resources we used--we began to work to pay off the debt we owed this species that had housed us. I'm reminded of how pimps buy fresh meat for their markets of prostitution...create a huge 'charge' that will never, ever be paid off. MNU has cut and cut at the resources we poleepkwa can get and increased the workload so very much; we should have paid off our debt long ago. But it's still there, bigger then ever...will it ever go away?

  1. You used one ton, but they made you lift many,
    Usury is all they can claim today,
    But fists of iron and steel, you have plenty,
    The next they demand, use those to pay.
