Pre-Uplifting Soldier Boy: Wait one sec... you tellin' me that you didn't have a soul before? or did you lost it somehow? or how does this actually work...? Also huh angel lady? So you tellin' me that the soul isn't the one that is essential to existence?
Cyrus: "I did, in fact, lose my soul. But when I found out how to control void energy, I figured, if I can make semi-artificial clones of myself, among other things, could I make a soul as well?"
