[really, really Infinities] strange things are afoot

[robkelk]

Madsci... madsci is probably closest to mainline wavetech in how it works; it's all bespoke, generally can only be reproduced by the person who made it and tends to treat the laws of reality as vague guidelines. As you can guess, it's the rarest and most worried-about part of the whole thing.

And it's the stuff that Sora copied from Kohran's notes before she left Stella Via, which is why Fnord's group is so fascinated by it.

Losing the data is not why Noah's worried - it was "copied," not "moved." He's worried that his first child might not have thought things through before she left. (She has, but he hasn't had a lot of experience in being a parent.)

"Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose
them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."
