Before I Rejoice

Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Professor Jean-Yuu in his 23rd century paper on The Man & The Stars, commented on the ‘human’ in space. Of the few races across the cosmos to evolve from the hominid, it is in our nature to conquer and scorch an indifferent universe with divine prejudice and governance. To a multiverse otherwise existing, we spend our days searching for purpose, for rationality, for order. The human condition and motivations lie in psychotic self-involvement, the only race that would otherwise scream in space– for other claves have already understood that nothing could hear you… What does that mean?
