COMPENDIUM ARCHIVES // RECOVERED ANALOGUE FIELD NOTE

Diminuto Invitation

Unlocked after the UAB gathering of Sid, Alex, Scraps, Diminuto, and McKenna. The file suggests the reader may have enough EM sensitivity to be in danger, useful, or both. Naturally, the universe chose both.

You noticed the pattern.

That is the first problem. The second problem is that patterns tend to notice back.

Diminuto does not call this recruitment. Recruitment is what institutions do when they want your labor before your consent catches up. This is a warning written on paper because paper is harder to update from a distance.

After the UAB gathering, the archive marks you as a probable witness: someone close enough to the signal to feel the pressure and stubborn enough to keep reading anyway. Sid would call that dangerous. McKenna would call it diagnostic. Diminuto, annoyingly, would call it Tuesday.

If you are reading this after Chapter 5, you have already crossed the first line. Do not panic. Panic wastes oxygen, and oxygen remains useful.
