[story][Fenspace Alternates] The South Is Rising, Someone Get A Hammer

(Some religions would prefer the term “unknowable,” but honestly? They're assholes.)

I would have gone with "ineffable" instead of "unknowable"... but, yeah, you're right.

Hmmmm... 19 November 2016... Helen is three years old, and her aunt Minerva (Swansen) and cousin Charles (Anderson) have finished their college courses (sociology and mechanical engineering, respectively) and are Up and married to each other. However, the rest of the Swansen and Anderson families are gone with the USA, and it'll be pretty obvious what in general happened to them even if specifics are unavailable. This would be enough for Noah to release to the SMOFs the "interdimensional theory and practice" parts of the Whole Fenspace Catalog that he had previously redacted - he wants his family back. (And if it comes out that some gods are responsible, the locks come off the "research theology" parts of the Girls' Database...)

Does Maico Tange break cover, or does she keep The Secret despite this blatant "reality quake"? And if she does break cover, what can she do?
