Jean: Why me?
Vuk: Because you're stronger than you know. Because you're special, Jean. With my help, you could control what's inside you. Harness that power to create whole new worlds... turn dust into water... water into life. It's your destiny, Jean, to become something greater... to evolve into the greatest force in the galaxy. I told you they could never understand you. And what they don't understand, they fear. And what they fear...
Jean: ...they seek to destroy.
