Summary
“Do you know Sliver of Straw? She's quite legendary among us.
Sliver of Straw is the only one to ever broadcast a specific signal: that the Big Problem we're all working on has been solved. The triple affirmative - affirmative that a solution has been found, affirmative that the solution is portable, and affirmative that a technical implementation is possible and generally applicable. She's also one of few that has ever been confirmed as exhaustively incapacitated, or dead. We do not die easily.” - Looks To The Moon (Pale Yellow Pearl)

The wider iterator populace is still reeling from the death of Sliver of Straw and her unexpected broadcast. Investigations of her structure prove to be, if not fruitful, confusing. Essential data has been gouged out; personality matrices, precious memories, all gone. What remains of her runs simulations in endless circles until it collapses to the ground in an inglorious heap.
Evading prying eyes, a strange creature makes its escape unnoticed. In its desperate flight, it meets with two like it. But this world is not forgiving, and they will need to use every resource at their disposal to survive.
