::So, in an abandoned and severely damaged part of the Barian World, presumably near the center of it, you can find Koyo trying to get a half damaged computer operational. And it doesn't seem to be progressing well.::

That's a relief, though I probably would've tried to get to know you-slash-know you already, anyway!

*she looks at the big console*

... What're you trying to do, anyway?

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

... Repair it to gain information. The last two Number locations mentioned this place had information / was a central data node.

Unfortunately, it looks like either the Warp or a recent attack damaged it beyond reasonable use.

I think the last of what might've been tethering this spot to the uh, rest of the planet, is what knocked it offline in the first place... But yeah, this has been kinda... Deteriorating? Like really gradually, but really obviously, too.

I don't entirely know how it could be fixed... it might be possible, but there wouldn't be much use while we're still here.

I discussed it with Failnaught. It's doable. But. It requires a lot of things and well. As you said, we need to focus on stability. But.

If only we had sort of reverse shredder...

[handofaegis]

A reverse... shredder?

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

Basically most of the Barian World should still be in the Warp.

A large number might be impossible to repair, but the more recent damage could be reversed.

Provided we had enough energy and a way to track the damaged shards that aren't too degraded.

... Basically I want to tape a torn document back together.

Wow... I never really thought about the possibility that some of our world might still exist, somewhere out there. I guess it's cause at this point... I dunno, it's been so long, and it's been torn apart so much, it felt hard to imagine anymore that it might be repaired completely.

[forgottenfrozenfloe]

If it's 'out there', it's in digested bits, possibly atoms small. But data can be reconstructed. Not all of it would be repaired.

Just.

Probably the city here.

And I think that would be a moral victory, wouldn't you?
