In the beginning there were thirty-six of them, thirty-six droplets of life so tiny that Eduardo could see them only under a microscope. He studied them anxiously in the darkened room. Water bubbled through tubes that snaked around the warm, humid walls. Air was sucked into growth chambers. A dull, red light shone on the faces of the workers as they watched their own arrays of little glass dishes. Each one contained a drop of life. Eduardo moved his dishes, one after the other, under the lens of the microscope. The cells were perfect -- or so it seemed. Each was furnished with all it needed to grow. So much knowledge was hidden in that tiny world! Even Eduardo, who understood the process very well, was awed. The cell already understood what color hair it was to have, how tall it would become, and even whether it preferred spinach to broccoli. It might even have a hazy desire for music or crossword puzzles. All that was hidden in the droplet. Finally the round outlines quivered and lines appeared, dividing the cells in two. Eduardo sighed. It was going to be all right. He watched the samples grow, and then he carefully moved them to the incubator. But it wasn't all right. Something about the food, the heat, the light was wrong, and the man didn't know what it was. Very quickly over half of them died. There were only fifteen now, and Eduardo felt a cold lump in his stomach. If he failed, he would be sent to the Farms, and then what would become of Anna and the children, and his father, who was so old? "It's okay," said Lisa, so close by that Eduardo jumped. She was one of the senior technicians. She had worked for so many years in the dark, her face was chalk white and her blue veins were visible through her skin. "How can it be okay?" Eduardo said. "The cells were frozen over a hundred years ago. They can't be as healthy as samples taken yesterday." "That long," the man marveled. "But some of them should grow," Lisa said sternly. So Eduardo began to worry again. And

Image of a PlayStation 5 game collection titled WIP. Games Show are the following: Elder Scrolls Online Tunic New World Aeternum Star Wars Outlaws Dragon Age Veil Guard V Rising War frame Elden Ring M G S 5 Beyond Good & Evil (Also I've got to say the amount of characters we are allowed in the Alt Text section is bonkers). I still 1643 characters left.
