Buwan ng Disyembre, ang bapor Tabo na naghahatid ng mga sakay sa Laguna ay mabagal na umuusad sa mabilis na agos ng tubig ng ilog Pasig. Sakay nito ang lahat ng uri ng tao sa lipunan. Makikita sa bapor ang hindi pantay na pagtingin sa mga mamamayan. Sapagkat ito ay nahahati sa dalawang bahagi-- ang ilalim at ang ibabaw. Ang mga mahihirap ay nasa ibaba ng kubyerta, kung saan makikita rito ang mga Indio, mga Tsino at mga Mestizo na pawisang nagsisiksikan kasama ang mga baul at kalakal samantala ang mga mayayaman naman ang nasa kubyerta kung saan makikitang prenteng nakupo ang ilang prayle at iba pang may sinasabi sa lipunan.
Jusko! Ang kupad kupad ng takbo ng bapor na ito!
(reklamo ng donya habang ikinukumpas ang kayang abaniko. Matapos niya rin itong sabihin ay lumapit siya sa kapitan at sinabing...)
Buenos dias a todos ustedes! Kalahati lamang ang takbo ng makina, Kapitan. Bakit hindi tulinan nang husto ang takbo nito?
Marahil kapag bumilis pa'y masasadsad na tayo sa malawak na bukirin na iyon, Ginang
Hay nako! Iyang mga nagdaraang kasko at mga indiong naliligo at naglalaba ay nakasisira lamang ng kagandan ng paligid. Mabibilisan sana ang takbo ng bapor tabo kung walang mga indio na nasa pampang o sa ano pang bahagi ng daigdig! Mga basura lamang sila na kakalat-kalat sa daan!
(Tinig iyon ng donya habang kinukumpas ang kanyang abaniko ng tila walang pumapansin sa kanya at nagdadaldalan lang ibang kasamahan sa mga kasamahan maliban sa kanya ay natigil sa pag-imik at nanahimik sa isang tabi)
(Nakahawak ang isang kamay sa kanyang baba; tila nag-iisip) Mga ginoo at donya naisip ko lamang na mas kailangan nating bigyang pagpapahalaga ang pag-aaral ang siyensya dahil kapag walang mga ekspertong syenista, wala tayong pag-unlad kaya kailangang 'yong pag-aralan ng mga tao rito!

Matigil ka Ben Zayb! Karanasan lamang ang kailangan upang mapaganda ang Ilog Pasig. Kaya hindi na dapat mag-aral ng siyensya!
: (Napailing) Hindi. Matalinong pag-iisip ang kailangan. Dapat mong isipin na malaking suliranin ang liku-liko at mabuhangin na Ilog Pasig.
(Bago pa man may makapag salita sa isa sa mga grupo ay sumulpot na lang bigla si Simoun)
Ang lunas ay napaka dali, hindi ko nga lang mawari kung bakit walang sinuman ang nakaisip nito.
(Napatingin ang grupo kay Simoun na tila'y nagtataka. Tumuro si Simoun sa Isang dako at sinundan naman ng tingin ng mga kasama kung saan nakaturo si Simoun )
Ano naman ang nais mong ipahiwatig ginoo? (pataray na tanong habang nakataas ang kanyang isang kilay, kasabay ang pagkumpas sa kanyang abaniko)
(Sumilay sa mukha nito ang isang ngisi) Dapat lamang humukay ng isang malalim na kanal mula sa bunganga ng ilog Pasig hanggang sa labasan na maglalagos sa Maynila, at ang lupang mahuhukay ay itatabon sa dating ilog. Kapag nagawa ito, tiyak na mapapaikli ang paglalakbay. Napaka simple hindi ba? (Nakangiting pahayag ni Simoun ngunit tila hindi sang-ayon sa kanya ang mga kasama)
Ngunit saan ka kukuha ng salaping gagastahin sa mga manggagawa?
Walang magugugol, Don Custodio, pagka't mga bilanggo ang gagawa
Walang sapat na bilanggo!
Kung gayo'y piliting gumawa ang mamamayan. bata man o matanda!
Kaguluhan lamang ang ibubuga niyan!
(tatalikod) Mga kaguluhan? Ha! Ha! Nag-alsa na ba kahit minsan ang bayang Ehipto?
Nag-alsa na ba ang mga bilanggong Hudeo laban sa banal na Tito? Tao kayo, akala ko'y lalo kayong nakauunawa sa kasaysayan!
Ngunit, hindi taga-Ehipto, ni Hudyo ang iyong kaharap! At ang mga Pilipino ay hindi miniminsang naghimagsok, kung hindi dahil sa mga pari..
Ang mga panahong yaon ay nakalipas na. Hindi na muling maghihimagsik ang bansang ito. Dagsaan man nila ang mga gawain at patawan man ng higit na mataas na buwis.

(Walang nag-imik sa grupo tila lahat ay pnagiisipan ang mga sinabi ni Simoun)
Kung wala na kayong maisip na solusyon sa problemang ito ay maari niyo namang pag-isipan ng mabuti ang aking suwesyon, wala rin namang mawawala kung susubukan ito hindi ba? (Mapapangiti ng bahagya si Simoun dahilan upang magkatinginan ang lahat na animo'y nag-uusap sila sa kanilang mga isip...) Sana'y pag-isipan niyo ng mabuti kung ano ang tama, mauna na ako sa inyo mga ginoo at donya.
(Nang makaalis na si Simoun)
Isang mulatong Amerikano!
Indiong Ingles!

Tales of Teleios
Born as a noble free-man, the only daughter of a lord, Arete of Syracuse was an ambitious young woman who would do anything to succeed her father's position. One day, her father was exposed of his secret movement attempted to overthrow the emperor... Tales of Teleios set in the ancient Greco-Roman. It is a very standard adventure, low fantasy, alternate historical story with common archetype and predictable storyline. It is a form of artistic expression. 🏳️🌈 LGBTQIA+ Content Tag 🙇 ESL Author 📖 A Very Brief Summary 📖 (Unavoidable Spoiler) This story is about Arete of Syracuse (the protagonist) who was on a journey to find a mysterious Teleios of Eretria. Travelling with her servant Matea, her maternal cousin Agave and a former hetaira named Pryne. Throughout their journey, they discovered the conspiracy behind the Emperor Nero's eugenic system. This story explores the topic of human advancement. Tracing the idea back to the Greco-Roman world, the idea of eugenicism started when humans attempted to achieve perfection through breeding enhancements. However, The Three Elders realised that they couldn't afford waiting on the natural process of evolution. Thus, they came out with the controversial idea of experimentation through the building up of monstrosities using different body parts of animals and attempting to achieve immortality through taking over the younger human bodies. Teleios means perfection, and the center of this story is about the journey of four very flawed characters: The protagonist, Arete was a skinny noble woman who was born premature and had amenorrhea. She was supposed to be drowned by the order of Emperor Claudius due to her imperfection. While Matea was born a perfect healthy person, but has had everything taken away from her. Agave who was born out of wedlock but was fortunate enough to be adopted into a noble family. And Pryne who was on her way to have a loving family but drifted instead throughout the world after making a decision that she deeply regretted and needed to overcome her sense of guilt along the way. The story will explore some of the most controversial topics which involved detestable ancient practices such as pedarastry, where as the Empress Sporus, being the victim of it, coping with her tragic experience through acceptance of the oppressor and her struggle for not being able to conceive. In summary, the topics were largely related to gender and sex. There will be violence and gore, as most of the fantasy works does. while the author here would like to inform the readers that this is not an erotica, nor it has any sentences that involve depiction of sexual activities. Therefore, this story is not for those who seek thrill on its sexual content. A dialogue of Empress Sporus: "The world itself abused us to a level unimaginable! Yet we have to learn to love the world! Simply to live! To make our life a little easier, a little happier. So what is wrong with that? Are you expecting me to go against the emperor when he is the one and only reason I became the empress?" Said Sporus.
