Spread across many people, perhaps only a little. The Lady Emperor--
[A shadow passes across his face, and he looks away.]
I am the last of my kind, but there was another. A sister of mine, who likewise survived the death of our race. To keep her alive, the Lady Emperor's sister volunteered to die. They are old. Not as I am, but there is a great of... power, to them. It worked for a time, but it was not permanent. And I would not wish the death of any creature for my salvation. Perhaps it is simply my time.
