The previous post completed a line of thought that had started with David Falkayn, apprentice, and ended with speculation about Avalon in the further future. This was because the Falkayn narrative had converged with narratives about Ythrians, starting with "Wings of Victory," and about Avalon, starting with "The Problem of Pain."

The Technic History grew but reads as if it had been planned long term.
