Have you ever sifted for humans those beyond the impulse of a beast? Those that would not gnaw off their own leg to escape the trap, or eat their young to survive, or climb upon dying friends to escape the fire. Yes, I have sifted for humans and I found only the one, and the beasts killed him.

Sifting
Have you ever sifted for humans those beyond the impulse of a beast? Those that would not gnaw off their own leg to escape the trap, or eat their young to survive, or climb upon dying friends to escape the fire. Yes, I have sifted for humans and I found only the one, and the beasts killed him.
