[edit] Opening narration
- The race of Man is known for its mutability. We can change our moods, our faces, our lives to suit whatever situation confront us. Adapt and survive. Even among the most changeable of living things, Man is quicksilver-more chameleon-like than the chameleon, determined to survive, no matter what the cost to others... or to himself.
