¨#¨#¨##¨#¨ THERE IS ANOTHER COMPANY. A CLIMBING ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
¨#¨#¨¨#¨#¨ AND PENETRATING VINE. IT'S IN THE ROCKY ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
¨#¨#¨##¨#¨ PLAINS, IT'S INSIDE THE HILLS, IT'S ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
¨#¨#¨¨#¨#¨ DEEP BELOW. GLISTENING SILVER BURROWS, ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
¨#¨#¨##¨#¨ RED-PINK LOGO, UNCLEAR NATIONALITY, ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
¨#¨#¨¨#¨#¨ VEILED MOTIVES. ¨#¨#¨#¨#¨#
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. ¨
