Day 16

Plainsong

I climbed to the highest point of the dish's structure to watch the sunrise.

Down by the city gates, an Utaru huntress named Kin hailed me over and told me about a group of Tenakth rebels she'd come across when coming down the northern road. Were their forces already making their way to Riverhymn? I thanked her for the intel and moved on, heading for a Charger herd to pick up a mount.

I found one just past the eastern treeline, overriding one and speeding away before the others could attack.

Riding north west, I spotted another of the RCC's survey drones scanning an ancient military ruin overgrown with blight. With this data, Gaia would be able to analyse the rot's chemical composition in more detail.

To get the height I needed, I climbed the rock face behind the ruin and dropped down inside, right on top of a single Scrounger that had gotten itself stuck inside somehow. I then climbed on top of the ruin walls, jumped onto the drone and weighed it down to the blighted soil. Another drone connection to return to Gaia's fleet.

Riding north, I soon crossed paths with the rebels Kin had warned me about. They were in the middle of attacking a large Utaru camp, and it seemed they'd caught the travelers unaware. There were only a few survivors left fighting, but I made short work of the raiding Tenakth. I took them on head to head, and when all that was left was their heavily-armoured, hammer wielding leader, I obliterated him from a distance with what was probably two too many exploding spikes.

That brought an abrupt end to the attack. Only three Utaru were left standing; they thanked me and tried to pay me with what they could. I tried to turn them down, but the Utaru seem as set as the Oseram on payments due. Reciprocity likely fits in nicely with their philosophy of balanced cycles, give and take. I'm not complaining.

So many dead. The surviving Utaru collected their seed pouches and set off to return them to Plainsong. They didn't seem to care so much about the corpses themselves. Wherever they fall, they'll nourish the soil; the life is gone from them, they explained, passed into the potential new life of those carried seeds.

I rode up to the base of the promontory to search for Kalae, as it was on my way to Riverhymn. According to Bree, it used to be a rite of passage for new Chorus members to make the climb and lay an offering at the altar at the peak, but since the derangement it has become to dangerous, and no one has completed the rite for years. Kalae did so not only because of her strength, but to prove to the Chorus that she valued their traditions despite her radical belief in notions like, for example, not standing around and waiting to starve. The woven path leading up had been completely destroyed in the years of disuse. I made the climb by hand.

Grazers and Skydrifters patrolled the rise. It looked like they'd come in to harvest the carcasses Kalae left behind. I targeted the Grazers first, setting shock wire traps to stun them so I could run in for the kill. I still haven't got my hands on any fire arrows. Hunters seem to prefer acid around here, what with all the Bristlebacks and Leaplashers. So, no easy kill shot for Grazers.

Ropes and power cell explosions for the Skydrifters, using my shock war bow. It never gets old. I also put my frost ammo to use; it's very affective against them, freezing them up too much to fly.

At the back of the clearing, where once more the promontory path had been torn down by the elements and machines, I found tracks from the Utaru search party, along with the instrument they'd found and used to claim Kalae's death. It was pretty clear that Kalae couldn't have fallen in this spot, though—there was a huge tree that should have caught a falling body. I was beginning to think I was right to find the situation suspicious. I climbed up to the next clearing. Given the destruction so far, the climb to the promontory peak was sure to be a whole lot harder than it used to be.

I climbed the sheer cliff and though a short cavern before entering the ritual site. I could see why the Utaru coveted the place; it was beautiful, quiet, and untouched by machines. Only their woven bridges and paths disturbed the natural beauty, and even those, woven from native grasses and barks, blended in so as to seem like extensions of the landscape. I found no sign of Kalae's body, only her tracks that seemed to have taken her up the climb, but never back down.

At the peak of the promontory was an archway framing a spectacular view of Plainsong. This was how the Utaru first found it, the huge satellite array surrounded by fields of crops tended by Gaia's Plowhorns, their land gods. Those long-ago pilgrims might have walked all the way from the sacred lands, or split off in ensuing conflicts as the new humans of Gaia migrated west. I can see why this place is holy to them, though that's no reason to die in it.

I found more signs of Kalae at the altar. There was a pot of dye made from crushed yellow flowers, likely intended to be added to a mural on a nearby rock face. All the marks were long dry. Kalae never finished her ritual. I picked up her path with my Focus, following dye residue on the ground to a thicket full of broken branches and spots of blood, sure signs of a struggle. Someone snuck up on Kalae as she knelt at the altar and fought her through to the clearing beyond. I followed their trail.

I soon found Kalae, and her killer. Both were bruised and beaten, but it was Kalae that had died first, her fingers still stained with yellow dye. From the bruising around her neck, it was clear that she'd been strangled. As for the other woman, it looked as if she'd been shot by a machine, a clean laser burn shorn through her chest.

Before I could examine the scene any further, a pair of Stalkers showed themselves and bounded down into the clearing. So, that explained what killed Kalae's murderer. I snuck behind cover to avoid the Stalkers' sniper blasts, setting shock wire traps to down one of them before going in with my spear. I destroyed both machines by catching them in the explosions of their own land mines, set off by my arrows as as they sprayed the traps in their wakes.

By the time I'd taken both of them down, harvested their valuable parts, and collected evidence, including the seed pouches from both Kalae and her killer, the sun had set.

Growing exhausted by this time, I rappelled and glided my way down from the promontory and headed back to the Utaru camp I'd passed along the way.

Whoever killed Kalae, I'll bet the Chorus is behind it somehow. The leaders of the Utaru are about to hate me a whole lot more, despite the fact that I saved them all from certain death from Hepheastus and healed their land god. I suppose I did kill their other land god, but I won't be advertising that.

There was a small hut at the camp, mostly enclosed and stocked with soft, warm grasses. Itchy too, but better shelter than I could've hoped for. I'll head to Riverhymn tomorrow to make sure there aren't more Tenakth rebels in the area, then return to Plainsong to pass the grave news to Bree.

Concrete reinforced with reinforcing materials, usually steel, is known as reinforced cement concrete (RCC). Compressive strength is provided by concrete, and tensile strength is provided by steel. The combination of these materials produces a versatile, strong, and durable building material that can be used for a variety of purposes, including:

Buildings

Bridges

Dams

Tunnels

Roads

Parking structures

Other civil structures

RCC is a combination of compressive strength from the concrete and tensile strength from the reinforcement making it an ideal material for handling a wide range of loads and resisting cracking or failure.

Reduced Breakage: Superior tensile strength prevents snapping and failure during use.

Extended Lifespan: Rust-resistant coatings reduce the frequency of replacements.

Operational Efficiency: High workability speeds up installation and reduces labor fatigue.

How to Identify a Reliable Supplier

Quality wire begins with a reliable manufacturing source. Here’s how to vet your supplier:

1. Certifications and Standards

Check for ISO, BIS, or other national/international certifications that reflect a commitment to quality control and process management.

2. Testing and Quality Assurance

Top suppliers test for elongation, tensile strength, zinc coating thickness, and other critical metrics before shipping.

3. Bulk Supply Capability

Manufacturers should be able to handle large-scale orders without compromising on quality or delivery timelines.

4. Technical Support

Choose manufacturers who offer product support, technical datasheets, and guidance for optimal usage.

Avoid These Common Mistakes

Using Uncoated Wire in Moist Areas: Leads to rapid corrosion and failure.

Selecting the Wrong Gauge: Impacts load capacity and structural integrity.

Ignoring Usage Specifications: Different wire types serve different purposes; mixing them leads to operational inefficiencies.

Buying from Unverified Sources: Low-cost imports or generic brands may not meet critical performance parameters.

Elevators in High-Rise Buildings: Safety, Compliance & Rescue

In the earlier years (1980-1990) in most of the main cities like Mumbai, Delhi, etc., buildings used to be 5 to 10 stories. The Local fire brigades had ladders which were popularly known as TURN TABLE LADDERS OR SNORKELS which had just enough reach for firemen to rescue trapped persons in these buildings, IN fact those days one could see the board on the floor lobbies ‘ IN CASE OF FIRE, DO NOT USE THE ELEVATORS. As urbanization crept in and then at an accelerated pace, high-rise buildings became the norm in most cities. These towering structures rely heavily on elevators, not just for convenience but also for safety.

Modern elevator technology plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of occupants, particularly during emergencies like fires, earthquakes, and power failures. Understanding how elevators contribute to high-rise safety is essential for building designers, facility managers, and occupants and most important knowing the laws of the state as the permissions for the project depend on the implementation and compliance. In the early nineties, every building above 7 stories needed to have a FIRE LIFT with a FIREMANS SWITCH. The definition of the fire lift was spelled out in the National Building Code, Bureau of Indian Standards, and the book of the Chief Electrical Inspector of the state

Fire Lifts need to have the following:

They should be running in RCC shafts with a wall thickness that would ensure water resistance, no transfer of heat or flames, and design certified by the structural consultant stating that meets with the norms.

The elevator cars and doors should be made of Mild Steel or Stainless Steel which would have panel thickness with two hours of fire-rated doors; would be designed to ensure no fire flame passe.

The elevator should have a speed that will enable it to travel to the topmost landing nonstop in one minute.

Should have a fireman’s switch. This switch is to be used in an emergency of fire, only by the firemen; once this switch is actuated by the fireman he takes control of the elevator and uses it judiciously in rescuing the trapped persons.

Later in 2022 in the state of Maharashtra, it became mandatory to have a FIRE EVACAUATION LIFT for buildings above 70 meters in height. This today is mandatory in the state of Maharashtra, Firemen exclusively use this lift for firemen in rescue operation and it is the duty of the managing committee of the building as per law to keep this lift in working conditions. The salient features of these elevators are as follows

The lift cabin is made of non-combustible material.

All side panels are sandwiched type filled with ceramic wool with 2 2-hour fire rating.

The trap door is provided on the roof for the emergency exit.

Landing and Caer door should be fire-rated with a fire-rated vision panel.

Two operating consoles are provided; one on the lift and the other on the ground floor.

Firemen’s toggle switch, which allows him to take control of the lift during a fire operation.

The two-way communication system between the lift car and the person on the landing.

30 minutes battery backup.

Jerk less back up system.

Manual change-over switch with socket provision for external generator connectivity.

Conclusion

Elevators play a crucial role in high-rise safety, not only as a means of transportation but also as an essential component of emergency preparedness. With advancements in fire safety, earthquake resistance, power backup, and smart technology, modern building elevator systems are safer than ever before. Understanding these safety features can help building occupants, facility managers, and developers ensure that high-rise buildings remain secure and efficient.

As high-rise structures continue to evolve, the future of elevators will include even more innovative safety features, further enhancing urban living and safety.

Elevators are more than just a convenience in high-rise buildings—they are a critical aspect of safety and emergency preparedness. With evolving regulations and technological advancements, modern elevators are now equipped with fire-resistant materials, emergency backup systems, and dedicated rescue features. As cities grow and buildings reach new heights, compliance with fire safety standards, including fire lifts and evacuation lifts, is essential for protecting lives.

Day 15 (1/2)

Regional Control Centre

I woke in the middle of the night to see that Gaia had managed to unlock more of the facility. While she continued booting up, piecing herself back together with Minerva, I did a little more exploring.

As Gaia's integrated herself further with the Control Centre's systems, I can see a whole lot more with my Focus. Just scanning the server racks gives me information about each one, a summary of its internal data and its utility to us. She's been busy.

Most crucial in terms of utility: showers, sinks, and toilets. The plumbing is in ruins, but Gaia indicated that it wouldn't take much in way of repairs to get things patched up. It'd be amazing to get it all working—otherwise it's either out on the frigid mountain or down the elevator shaft.

There are sleeping quarters next to the amenities, four sections with a bed, desk, and plenty of storage space. The blankets have decomposed to scrap and the place reeks of mould, but with a bit of cleaning, it could be a nice place to stay. Better than a Nora bedhouse, for sure.

Gaia still didn't have all the rooms hooked into the power supply, but she unlocked a few for me to explore, one stocked with more servers and a smaller holographic projector. Again, Gaia had got their interfaces up and running to help me process their data on my Focus. There isn't much left; this place was meant to hold knowledge specific to operating and improving the terraforming system, but it was wiped clear along with Apollo.

There were a couple of offices accessible as well, similar to the offices in Zero Dawn facilities, but cleaner and better kept. They reminded me of Elisabet's office.

I don't need an office as such—with its physical monitors and old, creaky chairs—but I could use a place to stash my stuff, work on my gadgets and weapons. This is sure to worsen my hoarding problem. No more lugging everything around until I can pawn it off on the next merchant, and no more leaving stuff behind at secluded camps hoping it won't be stolen. I'm not going to let myself lose everything again.

The last accessible room was a little more useful—a lab, with a lot of mechanisms still operational. Most exciting was the fabrication terminal, a contraption capable of taking in scrap metal and other parts and rebuilding them to certain specifications. It was built to be interoperable with Gaia's machines, so using it to analyse and recreate structures from machine parts will help build the data I need to complete those corrupted override schemas I lifted from the Tau Cauldron core. I'm sure there's a whole lot more I can do with it too.

Watching it at work on a small test sample, tiny machines swirling behind the glass, it reminded me of the golden machine swarms wielded by the intruders at the Proving Lab. Maybe a more advanced form of similar technology?

Varl woke and joined me as I finished poking around the lab. He and Zo had similarly found somewhere passably warm to curl up. He wanted to know what was next; so did I. I tried not to come across as completely clueless about our plans going forward. I didn't tell him about the intruders at the lab, or the other clone. Not yet. Not until I know who they are and what they're really after.

As we were talking, Gaia called me over Focus to summon me back to the projection theatre. Her initialisation and merge with Minerva was complete. She was ready to talk and, I hoped, make everything clear.

She spoke to me first about the state of the biosphere. Not good, was the general prognosis. Gaia said it would only take about four months for the rabid terraforming system to degrade beyond all reasonable hope of repair. The good news was, since the RCC was built for long range communication, unlike Latopolis, Gaia could now run a far more sophisticated scan for the escaped subfunctions. However, the scan could take days or more likely weeks to complete, given she'd have to pinpoint each function's mutated signature and circumvent the many techniques they've likely employed to hide themselves. The others are unlikely to be as forthcoming as Minerva.

The only subfunction that Gaia could detect deafeningly loud and blindingly clear was Hephaestus. Figures, I've seen it around too. Gaia explained that it's scattered across the global Cauldron network, and in any attempt to capture it, it would simply slip away to some distant location, as I'd experienced at Firebreak and in Cauldron Tau. It had no reason to hide its activities.

Gaia would continue devising a plan to lock it out of the network and capture it, though attempting to do so before she had been reunited with at least three more of her subfunctions would lead to disaster. Hephaestus had mutated to a dangerous degree since the original Gaia's self-destruction. Given freedom of movement it had grown massive, volatile, and hostile; as it absorbed Cyan, it would absorb this more rudimentary, weaker version of Gaia with ease. She needed to be powerful enough to match it in battle by increasing her 'processing density'. The mission remained as it always had been: repair Gaia. Just because she was here, speaking and smiling and strategising, that didn't mean I was done. Far from it.

Hephaestus is our most important target. Without it, Gaia can't build machines of her own or take control of the Cauldron network. The machines are like her tools, her hands, able to act upon her orders and bring the terraforming system back into balance. With the other subfunctions, she would be able to enact some measure of change using existing machines and facilities to temper the most acute affects of system collapse, but without new machines to join the effort, that temperance wouldn't last long. That's to say nothing of the threat of Hephaestus itself as it continues to take direct control of Cauldrons, building more dangerous machines meant to cull humankind to make way for its own purple progeny.

So that's problem one: we need at least three subfunctions, along with a plan to bring Hephaestus to heel. We still have no clue where those other subfunctions could be, if they still exist, except that they'll be hiding in processor cores somewhere within rapid networking distance of Gaia Prime. That only leaves just about everywhere not on the other side of an ocean, if I'm lucky.

Gaia said she will devote as much of her internal resources as possible to detecting more of her subfunctions and notify me as soon as they're located. There's not much sense in me striking out into the open before then, especially with what I know is waiting for me, wanting me dead and well out of their way.

I asked Gaia then about the strangers at the Proving Lab.

She'd seen the whole encounter through my Focus, and she shared in my unease. She then laid out her theory, and it was worse than I ever speculated. Bombshell one: the signal that woke Hades, which Gaia ominously calls 'the extinction signal', didn't come from anywhere on Earth. She showed me, in projection form, Earth from a distance, moon and stars surrounding, then pulled back, the image moving so fast that the stars were coloured streaks racing past us. I was transfixed; horrified, but morbidly awestruck. What was so far away that would want to harm us here on Earth? Other worlds, other life?

This was the distance that the signal travelled to reach Gaia, a length so vast that light itself takes 8.6 years to cross it. That number was familiar, somewhere in the back of my mind, but I didn't realise where I'd heard it until Gaia's projection reached its destination, the motion of light finally ceasing.

There it was, orbiting a planet of brown landmasses, dark blue oceans, and thick swirls of clouds: the Odyssey. It was the same projection that Osvald Dalgaard used in his presentation at the Far Zenith launch facility. 8.6 light years...he used the same figure when describing the Odyssey's destination, the Sirius system.

Gaia said it was the only logical origin, though realistically the signal could have come from any direction of the same approximate distance away. As Hades said, the signal repeated for 17.22 years, and Gaia explained as I continued trying to get my head around distances that light crossed at a long crawl. That was 8.6 years once the signal arrived, for the fact of its failure to reach its sender, and another 8.6 for the sender's ceasing order to make it back to Earth.

Working theory: Far Zenith lied about their shuttle's explosion. After Travis' attack on their systems, and their deal with Zero Dawn coming to an end, they clearly didn't trust the descendants of the project to leave them alone. I know that Elisabet's view of Far Zenith was less than favourable; maybe they saw that as a potential threat. So, Far Zenith fake the destruction of their ship to keep Zero Dawn off their backs for good, and stay hidden from those that the project would raise and educate under Gaia's care.

I know they were paranoid. In the Old World, no one knew who the members of Far Zenith were, and it seems like a large portion of the public hated them for their flagrant wealth and hoarded power. They kept themselves secret on Earth, then hid their presence in space. They tried to steal Gaia before they left Earth, then tried to use their 'extinction signal' to steal her again, planning to take the whole world down in the process. Why?

I suppose they didn't know that Apollo was destroyed, maybe they thought we were still a threat, but even so, we didn't know about them. We couldn't have known, thanks to their cover up. So, what was it? They sent their signal to wake Hades and destroy all life on Earth, clean it of 'filth', as Hades put it, and then what? They subdue Hades, reinstate Gaia and...re-program her, maybe. Use her to create the world that they want. Play god, just as Elisabet feared. This is why she didn't want to hand over a copy of Gaia in the first place, but in refusing, in retaliating...did she doom us, here and now?

I posed my thoughts to Gaia, and she agreed that it was her own conclusion as well. Far Zenith had always planned to flee Earth in its dying days. Maybe they always planned to return as well. Return and claim the world they once dominated.

I thought there was only one inheritor of the human legacy, but there were two. One, Elisabet's, and the other...the space-born descendants of Peter Tshivhumbe.

Gaia confirmed something else that Hades said: the signal was meant for it alone, and the mutations imparted on the other subfunctions were only incidental, only unleashed when Hades was unable to assume control fast enough as Gaia initiated self-destruction, something Far Zenith couldn't anticipate. It was an incredibly advanced piece of malware, as Sylens observed, and Gaia said that only someone with in-depth knowledge of her code structures and her system as a whole could have engineered it. So...maybe Far Zenith was able to steal more of Zero Dawn's data than Travis thought. Maybe they've been working on reverse-engineering it ever since.

Suddenly, the strangers at the Proving Lab made a whole lot more sense. Their advanced technology, their flashy weaponry, their gilded ornamentation...Far Zenith, grown formidable with the knowledge of the Old Ones, given by Zero Dawn, on their side. They came here to do what their extinction signal failed to do: wipe out life on Earth, and use a stolen backup of Gaia to build it all over again for them to rule, destroying Elisabet's dream forever.

And all I could think about was that clone, moving on their orders, silent, weak. How could she go along with this plan? She stole Gaia for them, handing her over to Elisabet's enemy for them to use, to twist into a weapon to destroy and remake the world into some abomination, some paradise for these people who think themselves entitled to the planet.

How did they make a clone in the first place? Why, when their technology is supposedly so powerful?

Gaia explained that Far Zenith could have obtained a sample of Elisabet's DNA, with or without her consent, and stored it on board the Odyssey along with their many Earth life samples and human zygotes. She said that even with their ability to engineer powerful malware, obtaining a physical backup of Gaia in a shut-down state could only be done by walking in and taking it, and only someone with Elisabet Sobeck's genetic code could do that. Far Zenith made the clone as a key, just as Gaia made me. The only crucial difference is I was made to save the world, not kill everything on it.

Gaia had her doubts about the clone. She seems to think it's more likely that she's a subordinate, some sort of slave forced to take their orders. No way. She's Elisabet Sobeck, just as much as I am, she's no subordinate. Elisabet loved life; she gave everything for this world, just for this clone to come along and destroy it all? No. Just the thought of her makes me sick.

So it's all down to me. I knew it would be; it always is. Gaia can't do much from here but keep scanning for the other subordinate functions. As soon as she finds them, I'll be her eyes and hands. Vessel, if we want to get all Nora about it. I'll have to go and load each subfunction onto the cartridge I found Gaia on, then bring them back here to merge into her new system. Meanwhile, that other clone is running around with Far Zenith, who likely have way more advanced scanning capabilities, hunting the subfunctions right alongside me, with their own version of Gaia to mold and command. If they get to Hephaestus first, merge it into their version of Gaia...it'll be over. They'll have control over every Cauldron on the planet. They'll rule the biosphere and be able to build whatever devastating weapons they can dream up to kill us all.

But if I can beat them to it, we'll have the upper hand. Enough damage will take down the Zenith's shields, which to my onslaught seemed impenetrable. With an army of machines, we'll have the ability to destroy Far Zenith and their Specters on Earth, but even then...how many more of them are out there? How far have they already spread across the stars? How long will this fight go on?

It's...a lot. It's everything. My hands leapt to Elisabet's pendant without my knowing, tracing its comforting shapes and textures. Peeling paint, rusted hinges; the last thing Elisabet ever touched. I couldn't help but profess my doubts to Gaia. Even if it wasn't exactly her idea to create me, it was a version of her. Somewhere in her un-lived future there's a part of her that believes I am her best hope to save this world.

She gave me comfort. After all, she'd listened to her predecessor's final message too, trusting it. She'd seen that future, and repeated its words. Though her phrasing was mechanical, flat, ringing against old metal, the message was the same as I'd always heard when facing adversity, from Rost. Though the odds may seem insurmountable, there is hope. You are capable. You have prevailed many times.

Look deeper. Keep moving forward.

Before I left the theatre, I noticed a console on the circumference of the room. Gaia told me more about it; it was meant for uploading and accessing footage from observation drones. These drones were meant to be deployed in an emergency when biosphere observation could not be handled by personnel in the RCC. The centre had deployed them automatically a few years ago, when the first signs of blight start showing up. It took something extremely anomalous to trigger the system, apparently, and due to its degradation, the RCC soon lost connection to all the dispatched drones.

So, that explained the drone I found circling near that Thunderjaw in No Man's Land. I was able to upload the data I'd taken off it to the console, allowing the RCC to reconnect to the drone. And there it was, a live feed of red rocks and rusted bots. Those closest stones almost looked real. I figured that reconnecting these drones could be of some use to Gaia, who can observe the lands through them until she takes control of the Cauldron network again. Until, no if's.

I spoke to Varl and Zo briefly before heading back out into the wilds. They plan on staying behind to get up to speed on things with Gaia and make some repairs to the centre's facilities. Who knows, maybe I'll come back to a working shower.

Without any clear direction to where the subfunctions might be hiding, I may as well make myself useful in doing what I can to help the people of these lands. After Hephaestus' attack, the Utaru are sure to be struggling, and with Regalla's rebels still prowling their territory, the danger isn't over.

Sylens and his little army fits into all of this somehow. He knew who the Zeniths were, I'm sure of it. I'm willing to bet he was using me as some sort of bargaining chip; he leads Far Zenith to a backup of Gaia and a clone of Elisabet, he asks for a copy of Apollo in return. Then he uses his army to, what, conquer? That doesn't seem like his style. Maybe he thought Far Zenith would let him join up, otherwise I have no idea how he was planning to survive their plan for the world. What a self-absorbed idiot.

I thought it'd be a quick journey down the mountain with my Shield Wing. Beautiful views, pleasant weather, and no signs of total war and ruin down in Plainsong.

Not so quick once the rain started and a few Skydrifters came swooping in. I kept them down with spark cell detonations before going in for spear strikes. Ropes to keep the others from moving around too much in the meantime. A Burrower came to join in too, but I silenced it before it could call any more machines to the area. Fortunately, none of them were Hephaestus' deadly creations.

Continuing on my way down, I passed a signal tower like the one I found back in the Daunt. Scanning it, I picked up another corrupted projection. I made the quick climb back up to the ruin on the rise to repair the image from its original vantage. It showed the turbines and satellite dishes that now house Plainsong.

It was another site of the Miriam Technologies tour. This satellite array was once used to detect and monitor near-Earth objects—big rocks, I guess—rich in minerals. Miriam Technologies developed machines for the automated mining of these minerals out in space. I guess there wasn't much left of the stuff on Earth after the Claw Back, but it's pretty cool to think about. Unfortunately, there's only one near-Earth object I need to be concerned with right now, and that's the fucking Odyssey.

No need to dwell on it right now. There are people here who need my help. I continued down toward Plainsong.

**NOTIFICATION/NOTICE**

**Date: 6.6-25**

**Location: Khowai Barrack/Cantonment, India**

Subject: Structural Specifications and Considerations for RCC Buildings

This notice serves to inform relevant stakeholders regarding the construction parameters for Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) buildings within the Khowai Barrack/Cantonment area. The following specifications outline the story configurations, foundational requirements, and structural integrity considerations necessary for compliance with user-friendly design and safety standards.

1. **Building Structure Configuration**:

- The number of stories permissible for RCC buildings may vary, allowing for configurations of Ground Floor (G), First Floor (G+1), Second Floor (G+2), and Third Floor (G+3) depending on specific user requirements.

2. **Foundational Strength**:

- The strength of RCC column pillars is crucial and must be designed to support the required loads through adequate use of longitudinal (vertical) reinforcement.

3. **Reinforcement Specifications**:

- **#1**: Use of 12mm diameter reinforcement bars at each corner of the column (10 inches x 10 inches) will result in a total strength equivalent to a maturity level of 48 years (4 x 12mm = 48mm).

- **#2**: Use of 16mm diameter reinforcement bars will yield a strength equivalent to a maturity level of 64 years (4 x 16mm = 64mm).

- **#3**: Use of 20mm diameter reinforcement bars will provide strength equivalent to a maturity level of 80 years (4 x 20mm = 80mm).

- **#4**: Use of 25mm diameter reinforcement bars will achieve a strength equivalent to a maturity level of 100 years (4 x 25mm = 100mm).

4. **Personal Note**:

- Regarding personal circumstances affecting ongoing construction projects, it is with deep sadness I acknowledge the passing of my mother, Smt. Snehalata Roy, on 11th September 2023. Her presence and support during the construction of the RCC column for the overhead water tank were invaluable.

- The structural integrity of the aforementioned column, utilizing a combination of 16mm and 12mm diameter longitudinal reinforcements, provides a total strength of 112mm, symbolically comparing to a maturity of 112 years.

We express gratitude for the continued support and understanding from all involved parties during this challenging time.

Thank you.
