RESEARCH
- Olympus Unleashed
- Arcadia has been given the buildings that once housed the Olympus Colleges as a home. There is a vast amount of data buried in their Restored databanks, and that’s only the student archives. If they’re anything to go by, the restricted files won’t hold anything on the Secrets forbidden under the Directives. You’ll have to access them to check, though.
- Forging the Stars
- Adriana’s consistent approach to the expansion of the Sixth Secret as part of the Third Revolution is a pleasure to see. But according to your experts, there are flaws in the underlying infrastructure for her larger projects. You can fix that.
- Clairvoyance
- The scanner you built last year could prove to be the centrepiece of a technological breakthrough that would allow them to free their peoples of the plague of Shiplord subversion. What you created is an Artefact of your Practice, and those have never been easy to replicate. But if you don’t try…
MINOR
- The Spoken Word
- Your success in teaching Vega to Speak, for all that you still lack an advanced understanding of the subject, led her to suggest that you begin teaching others. Not everyone is her, but the vast scale that Words act on make this a possibility you can’t ignore. Even if only a fraction of the Potentials prove capable of it.
- Valkyries
- The Two Twenty Three were the only force to emerge from the Second Battle of Sol intact, after facing the most lethal of the FSN’s enemies in that fight. They brought down the Medicament, and faced Shiplords in direct combat aboard Calypso. Yet there is much that can still be done to temper the blade of the Unisonbound, and you are part of that weapon. It must not be marred by imperfections.
- Avatar
- It took a lot of work, but Iris has a body now, forged of Sixth Secret technology so advanced as to be almost beyond you. Yet there’s still so much more that could be done to enhance the form created for her. As an infomorph, Iris may be uniquely capable of integrating Sixth Secret technology into her shell. Mary’s wanted to upgrade the basic system she designed since it was finished. And if you can’t give your daughter an Aegis, you’ll give her the next best thing.
- The Past is Prelude
- The Olympus Colleges were more than just research centres. They were places of learning as much as science, and Arcadia is still an Institute. That means it, too, is a place of learning. You know far more than you like to consider, but there’s no reason that that knowledge can’t be put to good use. You’ve never been that sort of teacher, but there’s nothing stopping you from learning.
PERSONAL
- Powerful Words
- Your words have a Practiced strength to them, but that’s a cheap thing to say when you have no real understanding of what’s involved. In some ways it’s exhilarating, being able to draw so easily on the strength of your Focus. But you worry about what could happen if you put Practice behind a wrong word. You need to hone this gift, learn its limits and strengths.
- Harmonic Voice
- Vega’s Harmonic Circle did something that no one could have expected two years ago, but only a handful are aware of your involvement in that. She’s been struggling a bit to recover from the consequences of that action, and also with how it’s catapulted her so fully into the public eye. You know that world. If you can’t help, something is truly wrong.
- Child of Sight
- Some have called Iris your daughter. In this case, the some would actually miss some of the truth. The young AI is your daughter, but she’s also so much more than that. And you might not be the expert that Amelie is, but the last time you checked, stability was important for children.
