«Like Pascal, I consider that, from the atom to the nebula, models from both infinite coincide. […] I neglect scaling as I am certain that, at any level, problems, proportions and architectures remain analog »
Roger Caillois, Pierres Réfléchies, 1975
Cikkun looks through a scope. This is what his eye discerns:
Planet Iùa (☾), home of the Meules (木), is plagued. The Eros (Ẹ), an ore shaped specie, convert other minerals by ramming onto them to create a void in their core. As they infect every boulder, flint or gravel on their way, they proliferate. Witnessing their home being torn apart, the 木 launch a crisis ritual that will wake the Nose Bone (ሬ), the spirit in ☾’s crust. Those events scanned, a purple fleck swoops to alert its master, the Monkey Monk (Ѫ) to announce him what has begun: the Ero War. Amongst the Ẹ, the Trickster (↯) and the Ambusher (⟱) behave abnormally and, in symbiosis, disunite from the core colony and follow the purple trail. The two separatists arrive at the abode of the Ѫ and trigger a quarrelsome quarry. At the same time the Ẹ seek to trans-morph the ሬ and, aware of the magnitude of the target, they enter in their ultimate formation: Khak Shah.
