Transcript
Marc clears a small table and improvises a demonstration with household objects. Marc: Imagine the motorcycle was here... and also not here. Marc: Two possible states. Same system. Lyria: That's not helping. Marc: Then the system collapsed somewhere it had no business being. Marc: Apparently, neither did I.
Image description
Marc uses ordinary objects on a low table to demonstrate quantum superposition and explain how his motorcycle and he collapsed into the wrong reality.
About this chapter
Immediately after the awkward encounter in Lyria's flat, Marc learns that organic humans are virtually absent from the robot-controlled sector. Lyria reveals she has been tracking unexplained quantum disturbances and recognizes Marc's arrival signature. Surveillance data shows the Superposition Motorcycle survived and was seized by the authorities. Marc realizes it may be his only route home, while Lyria warns that dismantling its stabilizer could trigger another reality jump. They prepare to recover it—just as a Sentinel finds them.
