Barrera


Barrera laments his current situation.


Transcript:
Barrera: Ay... ay dios mio... I don't know what's happening. I just got back from the field. And I was told I should make a record while everything is still... “fresh.”
Barrera: There has been... so many losses.
Barrera: Losses... I don’t even like that word, “losses.” It's not adequate. People died. They are gone.
Barrera: I don’t like grouping them together like a statistic.
Barrera: I keep getting pushed to step outside my expertise to influence decisions. It doesn’t feel ethical.
Barrera: They cannot even distinguish one scientist from another.
Barrera: When I came here, I was - I was so excited. I forgot about the military side.
Barrera: They need me, but most of them do not understand me. And I know better, and still… I couldn’t stop myself.
Barrera: The discoveries I have made here have so much potential to make the world better. But of course, of course, of course... all they talk about is weapons.
Barrera: Aetherium is consuming my life. And I won’t be able to talk about it with anyone... except for the people here.
Barrera: I wanted... so, so, so much to see what no one had seen. Now I wonder if it was worth it.
