"They weren't wrong. We were mistaken."
In the end, Hao Ren and Hassu's attention returned to Amthura's dying words. After seeing Amthura's research materials, their thoughts had involuntarily been guided toward theories concerning innate hostility and conspiracy theories. So what exactly did "we were mistaken" in the dying words refer to?
Was it the part about the conspiracy theories, the origins of innate hostility, or something that hadn't been recorded in those research materials?
"The key issue now is that we have no information from the Ankatro Family," Hassu said slowly, looking at Amthura's remains with some emotion.

"They're
