I've absorbed them though my personal sector of the hub and I don't perceive 
any activity, so I deduce they are DEAD.  All that's left is residual 
allusions that consist of the memories of themselves that they've left in 
their survivors.

I'm at peace with their constitutions.  It didn't turn out the way I wanted, 
but I can live with it.  I don't plan on adopting any new obsessions in the 
near future.  I am spent.
