They didn’t do very much except to eat each other and reproduce. But there was nothing to compare that to, so for a while that was enough.

And so IT began to wonder: Why am I watching this?
IT could see no real point to anything that happened and there was nothing IT could do, and yet there IT was, watching. IT thought about this a very long time, but came to no conclusions. There was still no way to think any of this through; the whole idea of purpose wasn’t quit ............
