Lurtor now realized he had to believe that IR scientist. He was a clone. And most likely one of the first clones of the kid Lurtor. Though the more recent clones were still most likely of him… they were updated. He wasn’t sure on that as he didn’t understand the earther technology on this.
He left the 2 statis boxes alone but visible.
Over his commcrystal, he noted he found something and he needed to report to Commander Oolong or another commander.
When they arrived, Lurtor would show Commander Oolong the collar to make sure he knew he was himself.
Then Lurtor says "It looks like I have found the basis for all of the OtO and clones of myself. It seems also that it is true that I am most likely a clone of myself, one, I expect, sent back into the world to hide that I was taken. I expect the same for the OtO that we all know as well.
I have found statis boxes containing young versions of myself and OtO. I noticed the missing fingers on OtO. The ones his father bit off to teach him a lesson. When Scribe, Colonial General of Deryyanheim, order a group of us to be inspected by a scientist of the IR, he told me I was a very old clone of myself. The age he gave lines up to the age of myself in the box. I’ve been taught not to trust the IR, so I didn’t. This was something I didn’t believe or accept until, I guess now. That inspection was in one of my reports I made as soon as I could leave Deryyanheim.
That is why I believe they could be the originals. This could still be the old guy’s trick and not the originals. But I expect EEF could determine that if the IR could.
There is possibly something in the ice if you melt it. I purified the air as I made the hole down to those stasis coffins. So I’m not sure. But if who I think put them there did, I would expect more traps.
I don’t have any technical or medical skills to deal with this coffins, so I did not want to move them or expose them to the air fully. There should be 2 ft of ice around them still. I think these 2 should be inspected for physical and mental tampering and if cleared, then returned to their tribes.
I have not told Lalder that I personally might not be the original Lurtor as I didn’t fully believe that myself. So That topic will need to be explained to him. I’m not sure if Uryru Bill knows of cloning either."
Lurtor’s face hid much of his emotions on this, but there was something there and gone again. He didn’t know what to make of the cloning issue. He was still himself. He lived a life. What did that make it? He wasn’t sure. That was the one truth, the was himself. He choose his actions and actions are what make you. He will need to ponder this for a while.
