¨
¨ A CAVE COMPANY, A MAGICIAN COMPANY.
SHARPEST KNIFE, CUTEST KNIFE.
WE WILL GROW HUMANS IN PEA-PODS
¨
* SHIMMERING SOUND-CARD EMERGENCE,
¨ SOMETHING THERE ON THE SHORE OF
TURTLE BEACH. THE PRIMORDIAL SOUP OF
THE DIGITAL, WAVES IN DITHERING OF
THIRD-RATE DAC'S, CARESSING THE SAND,
BRINGING THINGS UP FROM THE DEPTHS OF
¨ THE CIRCUIT. AND THERE, DEPOSITED: THE
FIRST SEED CRYSTAL OF ARTIFICIAL ¨
¨ INTELLIGENCE.
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING, OF COURSE. ¨
¨
¨ ######################################## ,
¨
THE COMPANY IS NAMED FOR IT'S FIRST
PRODUCT, THE ORBITAL MIRROR, BOTH A
PASSIVE SENTINEL AND AN ACTIVE TORCH:
SET TO IT'S WIDEST CONFIGURATION IT
* WILL LIGHT UP A WHOLE CITY AT NIGHT, ¨
AND AT ITS NARROWEST IT BECOMES A LASER
TO CUT THROUGH MOUNTAIN AND METAL. *
STILL UNSOLD PROTOTYPES BY THE TIME
WHEN THAT SOMETHING WAS FOUND ON THAT
BEACH, NOW THE MIRRORS ARE ALL USED TO
BEAM ENERGY AT DIFFERENT MIRR
IMPLEMENTS, AS A RATHER STATIC AND ,
BORING POWER SOURCE. (AND SUBTLE THREAT
OF VIOLENCE.)
*
########################################
THE AI IS A CORAL. THEY GROW IT
* (CRYSTAL OIL, LEAD GLASS, GENTLE LASER *
¨ CURTAINS) ONLY TO CARVE IT APART AND
¨ SECTION IT. TO BECOME CONDITIONED,
REFRACTURED, GROWN AGAIN. DELICIOUSLY
HONED. MIRR SINKS FURTHER BELOW THE
¨ SURFACE.
,
WHISPERS NOW, ABOUT FEATHERBITE... IS *
SHE A REAL PERSON? OR IS THIS THE MIRR
AI, BEING UNLEASHED UPON THE YOUTH? AND ,
, ANOTHER CONSPIRACY THEORY ABOUT THERE
NOT ACTUALLY BEING ANY HUMAN EMPLOYEES
¨ LEFT.
*
¨ IN THE MEANTIME, DUBIOUS CREATIONS.
CERBERUS BODIES ARE BORN. ¨
