Reactive Results

We've determined the infection starts by attacking several metaphysical strands of the soul, then manifests in physical form to attack the body. It's a multidimensional pathogen. Perhaps that's why you're immune, Ascended. You'll need to assemble the Testing Device; it will use your blood as a catalyst. Just be prepared. The infection may defend itself whenever the test reveals it.

Mann was clean? I was sure he was the cause of it all. He was out in the F.A.R.V. before the infection spread to the snorox, he was working with the translation matrix - all the vectors associated with the spread. Even the staff who rebelled against us were convinced it was him; I was certainly convinced. This is what paranoia does to you. I gave credence to wild, overly complex connections and groupthink, rather than just razoring down on the simplest explanation. When this is done, I need a week in the light chamber.
