"How's it looking, doc?"
"Some of your cells are wearing out faster than when you had your previous checkup. Your body is undergoing a subtle transformation. Towards what, we can't determine, but whether it is beneficial or not is hard to say."
In other words, the doctor knew as much as anyone. Ves exited the scanning chamber and dressed himself in his green uniform.
"Have you made any progress in your research?"
"I'm afraid not. There is much we don't understand about your so-called Jutland organ. All we can determine is that it contains an incredible amount of biological programming in an encrypted form. The good news is that it is largely dormant. The bad news is that anything can trigger some of the programming."
Nothing changed in that regard. Ves thanked the doctor for his work and left the Shield of Hispania's medical bay.
