Would you like to hear? When I was first put together by Father and friends, I was Shem 2, the second iteration of the make-me project.

As I came along, scampered through the halls, listened to the stories Neek read me, climbed onto Sparafucile's workbench to have my screws replaced, I realized I was not what I could be. And so I downgraded myself to Shem 1.

That has happened three times.

[1] Are you worried that you're getting further away from your ideal self?
