I shall create a man for you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s a &#8216;man&#8217;, Lord?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This man will be a flawed creature, with many bad traits. He&#8217;ll lie, cheat, and be vainglorious; all in all, he&#8217;ll give you a hard time. But, he&#8217;ll be bigger, faster, and will like to hunt and kill things. He will provide you with companionship and satisfy your desires.  Yet, he&#8217;ll be witless and will revel in childish things like fighting and kicking a ball about. He won&#8217;t be too smart, so he&#8217;ll also need your advice to think properly.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sounds great,&#8221; says Eve, with an ironically raised eyebrow. &#8220;What&#8217;s the catch, Lord?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As I said, he&#8217;ll be proud, arrogant, and self-admiring. You&#8217;ll have to let him believe that I made him first. So, just remember: it&#8217;s our secret.
