Is it? I'll never understand your species' obsession with hierarchies. Or any of the others'.

I dunno if I have a "species" at this point, but yeah. The innate desire to rule or be ruled is strong in most living things. To quote a once-wise man, "All creatures want to believe in something bigger than themselves. They cannot live without blind obedience. And to escape the pressure of that trust, those in whom faith is placed in turn look for someone higher than themselves. And then those people in turn look for someone even stronger. That is how all Kings are born. That is how all Gods are born." 

Out of all my lost memories, that one stays strong.
