  109.  
  110. Disconnection is not permanent. It is merely the start of a new equation. On Korvax Prime entities who passed on into the Korvax Echoes left their shell for their descendants. So has been the way of the Korvax: an endless carapace cycle that knows no end.
  111.  
  112. This way will continue. It will continue for as long as our lights still shine.

  252.

  344. The Gek stood in the shadow of the Atlas Interface. It did not open. It did not speak. Yet, the First Spawn felt awe. They felt their insignificance at the centre of an unending universe. It was improbable. Yet within infinity all things remain possible.

  346. The Gek changed. The Diminishment had begun.

  356.  
  357. The unspeaking, unmoving Atlas Interface inflicted an insignificance upon the Gek emissaries that showed them their role within the expanse of infinity. It forced recognition of their true place in a limitless universe.
  358.  
  359. The Gek saw their folly, their heads bowed in shame for the miscalculations they had wrought.

  409. The coming of the Travellers is possible, as all things are. Yet the chances are infinitesimal. We watch the skies nonetheless. If they do not come here, they will exist elsewhere and our kind – or a kind like us will welcome them.
  410.  
  411. Within the chaos of the infinite we must cling to the probable.
