Following a distress call from
the Vice-Warden of Contrition's Figure, Seance's correctional
facility, the Beloved Dust prepare to enter the building under
special circumstances. The gunslinger Fourteen Fifteen checks in
with an old friend at The Signal*, and manages to only talk of
work, while the Excerpt ⸢Signet⸣ spends time thinking of a past so
different from, and yet so close to, the present. Tender Sky, an
architect utterly familiar with The Mesh, considers herself ready
for what awaits inside the digital environments of Contrition's
Figure. But these are strange times. Something has changed in the
facility and, worse, perhaps the Beloved Dust aren't the only
people interested.
These people, these
people,
They’re people, first

Signal
Founded in PM 0079 by former
explorer Expectancy Saint-Argent, The Signal survived two
journalistic crises while establishing itself as a primary source
of news for many citizens of Seance and the wider fleet. The paper
saw dark times during each, but, steered by the infamously
pugnacious Saint-Argent, redoubled in strength each time. Much of
its initial editorial team, Saint-Argent included, were not, in
fact, residents of Seance, having been born on The Sky Reflected in
Mirrors. "It's quite simple," the founder was oft quoted saying.
"Growing up in a city where, so often, one is kept in the dark, a
child will develop a pertinent sense for the
truth."
