"Apparently not so simple if the original world is gone. So, here's how it was described to me. Think like three points of support. You got a body bein' cared for by technicians. You got a connection to the vehicle. An' you got the SCA that keeps your body maintained. From what I gathered what happens with us with the tether happens to our real body- so we age, it ages, we scar, it scars. And if we die it resets with all them changes. Problem is, we got no point of origin like that 'cause the original world is gone.

Do we even have real bodies or do we just got these meat puppets she can reset that are like our old bodies? All there is is the train and the SCA. No origin point that we can locate. Her not knowin' where we go is a hell of a deal."
He winces. "It also limits our ability to operate other voidcraft which slows me up until I can find some kinda alternatives... But anyway, we need a void tech to figure some of this shit out for us and she ain't got no allies to turn to. It's just us havin' to figure all this out."
