And this strange Sump, the sludge of the Machines. We have not yet found an efficient way to dispose of it. Nor have we worked out how to turn the Machines off at night. We will, though. When the New Facility is completed.
Every Body is a potential Machine.
Any Facility can easily be converted into a Machine for Dying In. The processes of demolition and reconstruction inherent in the modern-day Facility can easily accommodate such a transformation. Every injection a Resident administers is potentially an euthanasia in miniature. Bodies are born into the hands of other Bodies in a Facility. So, too, a Body will ideally cease to live in a Facility.
