[Maybe Freya is bored and testing strange things at her new job with Prometheus... and who says a mechanical engineer can't have hobbies outside of her field and use work resources to test said hobbies.]

Interesting Fact:

Dry air is primarily made up of nitrogen (78.09%) and oxygen (20.95%). The remaining 1% is made up of argon (0.93%), carbon dioxide (0.039% ) and other trace gases (0.003%). Water vapor (water in its gaseous state) is also present in the atmosphere in varying amounts, by up to 2%.

This is my Earth as of 2010.

So here is my question; What is the air in quarantine made of?

[About ten minutes later another text goes out.]

Maybe someone, not me, should try and figure this out. On the plus side, I found out that exploding things at my new job is not grounds for being fired! I also started a new project that I have named Prometheus.

He will be a robot that helps clean up the streets with a cute friendly tune. You'll see prototypes on the streets in about a month. If you see him, please fill out one of the surveys that are on his back and insert them into his mouth. If you hurt him, I will find you.

He's going to be like Wall-e so if you hurt him I consider you a monster of epic douche-baggery.

Ah, a fellow seeker of knowledge, are you? Splendid! The library has no limit on broken, half-cocked histories of the Quarantine and the planet below. It's as if a cataclysm occurred and this is what remains. ;)

I would very much appreciate a recommendation. I've found, in what I have had the opportunity to read, my understanding of the world is no less complete than yours. It's simply as you say: terminology. I also find it fascinating there is a language in your world, this "Earth", now basically dead save when used by scholars, that is very similar to one in my own, very much the same in terms of usage and knowledge.

I believe you refer to it as "Latin". In my own world, it is ancient Tevene. While not identical, they are something like dialects of one another. Fascinating.

[luckyescape]

Yes.

:)

There are actually a lot of dead languages on Earth but Latin is the one we know the most about and have enough references to learn it to a usable degree. It's interesting because language had developed at the same time all over the world in areas that were secluded from each other but still held a lot of similar rules and structures to them.

I think it's interesting.

I believe it merely proves that minds capable of conscious thought tend to operate the same way, which makes a degree of sense. A wheel turns, whether it's a wheel sculpted in Tevinter or in the Free Marches. It still rolls, and with rather a predictable route, most often downhill, unless someone's there to stop the natural momentum.

[luckyescape]

I couldn't have said that better myself.

[Freya is finding that she really likes Dorian.]

Now I'm itching to read. Text me over some titles and authors when you have the time. I could use use someone with a good eye to help recommend texts.

[tevinteraltus]

I do love when someone recognizes me obvious brilliance. How could I deny such a request?

I'll compile a list and send it to your phone.

[luckyescape]

You're my hero.

[tevinteraltus]

You're welcome to continue showering me with praise. I won't object.

[luckyescape]

I'll make sure to send more when I get that book list.

[tevinteraltus]

Be sure you do.
