Reticulum

Reticulum is cited as the medium by which centrally issued directions can be transmitted among concents.

First Appearance and Context

In an account set at the Concent of Saunt Edhar during and after Apert, access to the rooftop instruments was abruptly sealed. The narrator infers that “the order must have gone out over the Reticulum” and been carried by the Ita to local authority, coinciding with the presence and later departure of visiting Inquisitors. This places the Reticulum as the channel used to circulate instructions that affected use of the Starhenge across multiple sites.

Roles/Actions and Affiliations

• Dissemination of directives: Used as the cited path for orders that apply across concents (e.g., sealing access to starhenges).
• Conveyance via the Ita: In this account, the order is described as having been conveyed locally by the Ita after going out over the Reticulum.
• Coordination signal: The timing suggests it can support near-simultaneous communication of decisions originating beyond a single concent.

Relationships

• Ita: Presented as the on‑site carriers of Reticulum‑originated messages to local hierarchs.
• Concents and hierarchs: Referenced in the context of instructions that direct local practice within a concent.

Descriptions/Characteristics

• Nature: Named in a way that implies a network or mesh; no technical description is provided in the text.
• Scope and operation: Only its function as a message‑carrying medium is described; who operates it and by what means are not specified in the account.

Current Status/Location

Active during the sealing of rooftop access at Saunt Edhar following Apert; no outages or limitations are reported. Further details about its mechanism or governance have not been provided in‑text.
