Cam catches a summons while he's in the middle of Atriama. He's seen it before, it's fine.
"Good news for the Cam Empire or the Resurrection Nation or whatever you should choose to call it."
"I don't know if that many resurrectees will choose to live there! Presumably lots of people are mostly motivated to be resurrected so they can go back to their lives and I will wind up freeing up space for them by taking immigrants from elsewhere."
"I imagine that's true of the long run, as the recently dead keep deciding not to stay that way, but in the short term I do expect a fair number of star clouds and a fairer number of star cloud bodies to want it, though maybe I'm more of an odd gull than I realize. - It's a good thing you can do houses, now I'm imagining somestar hundreds of souls big all wanting to live in the same enormous apartment."
"Maybe when I next get high if I meet any clouds that are considering it I'll tell them to design themselves a home. I should probably ask Nudge for psychic course-correction soon anyway."
"Good thought. Do you want me to come with? At some point it would probably be good to test what happens to embodied clouds on omnilol but of course it doesn't have to be now."
"Huh, your call. Or I guess the call of how much I have on hand left." How much has he got.
"'Tis!" he says, passing her the container after pouring himself some. He settles in comfortably (lap Cricket and all), and down the hatch it goes.
Starshine up hug, hugshine down. And happy birthdays! Some of them slightly belated.
Traditional greeting, and then also today you turned thirty-five, yesterday ten, and four days ago one. From the point of view of certain other flows of time.
Don't worry about it. For the record I'm sincerely sorry that my main purpose in death is to make jokes that go over your head; it's very rude I know. You can have a present to make up for it, though, if you want. In addition to the answers you came up here for. Which should possibly be given first.
What should I expect if I attempt to install elevators at the edge of the cylinder to allow settlement of the existing top handful of caverns, and what should I expect if those caverns are later expanded by mechanical or magical means, especially in terms of whether there'll be a cave-in?
An important thing to remember - or learn, rather - is that because the line which twenty-nine thirty-fourths of the people in this conversation are sitting on top of is infinite, it's hanging, not resting, and so the stress involved is somewhat less than you might imagine. But to actually answer your question, you can expect decreased relations with most governments and increased relations with some portion of their populaces. Also it'll look super cool.
The very top caverns are going to be way too cold; make sure you visit anywhere you're planning to remodel well ahead of time to check for things like that. Install really good guardrails very liberally. Probably you could hire locals to run a shuttle service in addition to the elevators and nothing would particularly go wrong with that.
