"Huh, that's a relief, wasn't looking forward to hearing that everywhere... I'll take it to the committee."

Orvara will not mark new red IDs, although they are doing this one city at a time and if people choose to be suspicious of folks they don't know looking for work in those cities then that's fine.

Permalink

Yeah, not much you can do about that.

Permalink

Some would-be yellows present themselves for cleaning.

Permalink

Anitam sends angels, paid in advance.

Permalink

And their hair grows out dandelion and gold and flaxen and lemon and buttercup now because angels are great, and they disappear into the yellow job market.

In Revelation an Amentan colonist dies in an accident.

Permalink

Attempts at summoning them fail.

Permalink

Could still work for Amentans conceived and born in Revelation but Amentans are sad nonetheless. 

 

The ones at the GCP have their babies! The blue liaison asks if the GCP is involved at all with organizations or research programs that look into what sorts of situations cause daeva incidents and how best to avoid them.

Permalink

They mostly stick to their charter of making arrests and doing trials but they have contact with the Safe Summoning Authority.

Permalink

She looks into the sort of projects they do. She's particularly interested in the incident with the Elves, has anyone done a really thorough work-up of what happened there?

Permalink

Hard to; there were chiplocked computers about and only one daeva present so they can't summon witnesses.

Permalink

No idea how he got summoned to another universe in the first place? Had he taken previous summons? Had he caused any trouble on previous summons? What stuff did he make before he made the black hole?

Permalink

They've got his circle and summoner; it was a kid who seems to be stranded on a planet in intergalactic space with some other Elves. His previous summonses all had bindings - some improper, but still - and gags, all functional, and went normally. He made the stranding planet and some architecture and some things that would melt people's brains on chip command and stuff.

Permalink

...melt peoples' brains on their chip command or his, or is it not possible to tell? Is he still running around doing stuff?

Permalink

Not possible to tell. He's somewhere else now but the place is awkwardly resistant to conjuration and they're not sure why.

Permalink

Have they checked the reaction in Hell to the news? 

Permalink

...no?

Permalink

...how thoughtless of her. It's safer for Amentans to talk to demons - possibly related to Amentans not having an afterlife, come to think of it - and Hell has journalists and newspapers and internet forums just like anywhere else. She's tempted to look at those to see if there are people saying, for example, that they're impressed he pulled it off or hope they get the chance, or that they know more about what happened.

Permalink

Well, if she summons safely they'd be happy to be CC'd with her results.

Permalink

She has a yellow do it. 

Yellow cheerily explains to a demon that they're trying to piece together the events surrounding that planet that got eaten by a black hole and it occurred to her that maybe demons were well ahead of them on that.

Permalink

"Oh yeah that was super fucked up."

Permalink

"Uh huh. I was hoping someone maybe did like a step-through checking what was going on and wrote it up, or maybe someone knew the demon and had some guesses?"

Permalink

"Uh, I don't know anybody who knew him but when the news broke some people looked into it, yeah."
