(Rate my Breen Speech) “Dear Dr. Breen, Who is the Combine, truly, at their core? Sincerely, a loyal citizen” Thank you for writing. The Combine, as a whole, is a universal union that brings unity to the worlds beyond the stars, and beyond our understanding. Worlds that seem impossible to exist within our limited minds prosper together underneath the Combine’s graceful and benevolent directive. It is worth noting that the Combine units you have seen in our world, whether that be on your block, or during the dark hours all those years ago, is merely a glimpse at the cosmic, ever-present Union which persists in its goals to spread true peace. I have touched previously on the heart and motive of the Combine, so I’ll summarize; The Combine strives to protect worlds from the inescapable dangers of war and those dangers inherent in our universe, such as instinct and the simple, stupid impulses of a human. They have shown us the light. We work our way there, building the staircase to this utopia of our dreams and future reality every single day, starting with the actions we choose. However, what I believe this letter is referring to, is the origin of the Universal Union. What began this conquest of prosperity? Although this question seems enticing on a surface level it is truly the mark of a human to search out answers that have no true meaning upon which they will prosper. Yet I will answer your question to the best of my ability. The Combine began eons upon eons upon eons ago. They started not in a physical form, but instead in a form that is naked to the human eye, and defies what our universe views as reality. If a human were to lay eyes upon the original entities of the Combine, they would see darkness. Yet the darkness had an intelligence magnified that every atom in our universe would not equal one-septillionth of one-quadrillionth of the all-encompassing knowledge and pure, raw power.

With this power and intellect, they saw the way to find the ultimate, universally uniting life. A life that could be consistent and eternal on all forms of reality, and a life that would know no conflict, no instinct, no corruption of the mind. They would only know peace. This raw intelligence spread across dimensions, infecting each species with its truths, amassing hundreds of thousands of universes all in an era of prosperity. And to this day, millions of universes have been freed of their shackles and allowed to prosper. And I think soon, we will be allowed into the light as well. Look to the stars.

That is the most well-written speech I've heard in a long time.
