FYI he already has 2 children. not sure if they should be called children since they are likely past retirement age. but he has offsprung.

Are they the same species though? I haven't heard his children narrate anything, so I cannot confirm.

He's 98 years old.

I know I won't be ready, but at least I won't be alone.

It saddens me that nobody (probably in all of history), has witnessed as much destruction as him.
