At the edges of the Solder Nodule logs of the Mechanical Swarm, data turbulence flared. The blood-inscribed War-Patterns of the Primitive Tribe gradually blurred into geometric lines, and the Spectrum ink of the Prism Civilization was fading into monochromatic pixels. The weld-point memory fragments of the Scorch Gear trembled violently at the core of the book, every crack peeling away a memory encoding known as "proof of existence." "Ice Drip, a fissure has been detected in the Heisenberg barrier of the memory dimension." From Leila's mechanical arm came the memory-disorder wave of the Sacred Tree Symbiosis System, the golden tree sap coagulating on the metal surface into disintegrating solder-point patterns. "The signal source is the 'Memory Scrivener,' controlled by the 'Void Elegist' civilization at the boundaries of cosmic entropy increase. They are decomposing the crack memories with the 'Epic of Entropy Annihilation,' believing that only absolute oblivion can restore the universe to entropy balance." The holographic projection of Ice Drip was torn apart by the memory turbulence.
