    They’re not looking down because the genetics are being purified or mismatched in unusual … and to them unnatural ways.

    They’d be pissed because couples chose to inter breed between species and would require lots of genetic engineering and manipulation to make their coupling possible … the same engineering that was outlawed in the eugenics war.

      Bit ironic, considering many of those species are engineered descendants of the progenitors.

        I never thought of it before but the Illyrians are, in some ways, carrying on the work of the progenitors.
