Oh, jeez. Why did it have to be Latin...? [HER LANGUAGE SETTINGS...] Well, here, let me show you what we found.
[Her satchel is looking a little extra crispy on this fine evening, but she pulls out one of her notebooks to read:]
Project: Shadow and Gold. Test number twenty-four. The Magis.
Purpose: Does eradicating “gold” result in the destruction of Subject A.
Results: Overall favorable. Detonation and elimination of desired target was mostly successful. Test provided to yield results within the parameters expected with the standard deviation of 5%. Error margins likely the result of the quantities of DNA supplied.
Short term effects provided to be successful. Long term effects unknown. Bigger sample required for more testing. Long term effects of testing required.
Conclusion: More testing required—new subjects needed. New location needed.
