"I never said I could save you...or the world. Never!"

"Easy, boy. Take it easy."

A bit defensive, but at least he doesn't seem fearful anymore. Better angry than afraid.

"I can't seem to be able to save myself. I raise a hand against a cybert and I can't move. Nothing happens. That's what happened back there with the bees. When I saw them as cyberts, I was incapable of dealing with them. When I let my guard down and let their SensaVision illusions wash over me, I could knock 'em down because they appeared to be Bio. If you ask me, the fact I can harm Bio-creatures and not Cyber-creatures is scary enough. Who cares if I can see reality?"

"Yeah, that is pretty scary, but you've got _me_ worried that you _can_ see reality."

"I don't understand. You see reality out here all the time."

"We don't need your ability to see reality; we need your ability to understand and see Makr."

"Makr? Out here?"

"Makr's everywhere. Didn't you know?" She smiled. "His cyberts, of course," she continued. "I think Makr could easily take control of our reality Outside, but we're too insignificant for Him to deal with personally."

Harry was startled. "I thought Makr is only Inside. Or, when you wear blinders."

"It's complicated."
