Symbols on Evergreen's Cover
Special Berries:
A food
source found in Ontawa
("the forbidden caves") along the thicket of vines that surround
the Golem. The berries have an odd, but temporary, effect on
those who eat them. It makes people dream with their eyes
open. Natives introduce dream-state ceremonies in their
rituals. "And another thing," Niles adds without hesitation.
"Those berries you gave me sent me back almost fifty years!"
A smile surfaces. Niles affectionately notes, "Thanks, pal. I
enjoyed the memories."
AiTOM ("Adam"):
The prototype AI SkyRail designed by
Quigley Cumberpatch and bio-engineered by Dr. Terre Bristol-
Lane of the Scripps Science Center, a Division of Forge
Enterprises. AiTOM stands for "Artificial Intelligence
Technology on the Motherboard." AiTOM was born out of
Project AiCORN; Terre's ill-fated program at Scripps that
produced technology with a mind of its own -- rewriting
commands and ignoring those assigned to it. CEO Thorstein
Darkminster Forge plans to introduce dangerous AiCORN
technology into passenger rails in spite of Terre's warnings.
