I was asking about the event. I do admit that to fully understand him we would need to got into a psychological profile, but knowing the event is just as important.

Yes, his view of humans came from the Holocaust, a terrible event in our world. An event that is not uncommon in our history sadly. From as far back as the Egyptians and Mesopotamia, people have always enslaved and killed others just because they are different. It is one of the most reoccurring themes in our worlds history.

Mr. Eisenhardt fell into the same trap that caused his own pain and suffering. Knowing history can help prevent us from falling into these same traps. History repeats itself if we fail to learn from it.

Elian, given what we have seen in the past, can you give us some guesses on how the future of human/mutant relations will be? Just going by how history has shown with situations of attempted Genocide.

[Elian's eyes fixed forward again much like a trained soldier would when directed to speak by a commanding officer.]

Providing that there is little to no education about mutations taught in public schools, our current course would be a war when taking into consideration the rise of factions and hate groups that have surfaced in recent years.

Much like what happened in Auschwitz and Egypt, there will be a round-up of mutants, or in the likelihood that Mr. Eisenhardt succeeds humans in retrospect, there will not be peace until an outcome is met.

[Even if the topic is a grim one, it's important and a very hard lesson.]

A grim outlook indeed, but as you mentioned, a one we may be able to prevent. That is the purpose of this school. Hopefully we will be successful, but only time will tell.

If Mr. Eisenhardt does succeed, I am not sure that will stop future Auschwitz's from happening, just with mutants doing it to other mutants.

Thank you for the good answers Elian. You get 10 bonus points on your next Test
