We made these men

“We made these men.”
“That we did, but these men failed.”
“We never fail with our works.”
“We have now. Look at these men. First they would kill each other for food, which is natural, but now they kill each other for any reason at all.”
“But it was all coming together so well when we left.”
“If I may intervene, every single creation has a chance of failure.”
“Ivarus speaks the truth.”
“Well how do we proceed?”
“These men were to be the guardians of this creation, but ended up being our creations worst enemy. What can one do?” Lecarus looked at the blue and green sphere.
“We all know what to do. We simply refuse to acknowledge it, but we know what we must do.”
“If you are talking about calling forth the destruction of our creation I must make it clear that I am against it.”
“Well then, Aderus, what do you suggest.”
“Maybe we can steer these men back to a more virtuous path?”
“It cannot be done. We have tried that, but they believe they are on a virtuous path already! We can only destroy them and begin anew.”
