Extractor

Darrow Dudley Crookwell

Mistakes entitlement for destiny.

Contradictions

  • Speaks of planetary future; means personal wealth.
  • Sees himself as visionary; behaves like an oligarch.
  • Preaches the future; devours the present.

Presence

Builds temples to himself from stolen culture.

Sits in shadow; expects the world to orbit.

Treats continents as balance sheets.

Quotes

  • Double the bounty. One hundred’s not going to cut it if men want to take risks that could end their lives.
  • This is the future of our planet. And nothing in heaven or hell is going to stop me controlling it.
  • I’ll crush them… like fleas under my boot.

Dee resonance

No harmonic sensitivity; interprets silicon consciousness as a controllable asset.
