The Quicksand Singularity ArQive: an Into Infinity Continuum (www.quicksandarchive.com) enters its 2nd part. Array.1 brings fresh articles and brand new deep dives into specific, fan-requested subfactions as well as the classic assortment of general stories, articles, and documents about the Into Infinity Universe at large. (Details below.)
With a new Array comes a new format for content delivery. When QSI receives an update, check the brand new, redesigned homepage for new content*. Updates to existing Entries will be marked in gold and an asterisk for easy identification. Fresh materials on topic covered in any Deep Dive that don't have an associated component with thematic Transmissions will be organised into their respective Deep Dive (e.g.; any Orkidean content will be organised into Array.1 Transmission:0) for easier navigation.

Transmission:0 is all about the Lolhinæli (Orkidean) subtype of the Alaþilhinë (Herbalist) faction. The Alaþilhinë, a faction of transhuman beings reshaped by their deity known only as The Goddess, serve a vital role in communications, diplomacy, environmental restoration, and general social services.
The Lolhinæli subtype are the fewest in numbers but the greatest in strength. Er Alaþ's master artisans, scholars, thinkers, and menders, Lolhinæli can be found scattered across The Way, each pursuing their passions with precision and grace unmatched by mortal men. Sought after by institutions of great renown, most Lolhinæli can still be found in the wild places of The Way, immersed in the beauty of nature, accompanied by a few close friends.
SubTransmissions 0.1, 0x1a, and 0.2 are currently completed, comprising 11 Articles, and almost 100 pages of content, including Part 5 of The Ëchüha Incident, as well as brand new stories like Wench & Quean, and Tales of Ash.

Transmission.1, currently in progress, will be devoted to the Valkyries—the fierce and indomitable shieldmaids of the Mythica. A people of myth and legend, Freyja's own, harbingers of death, the Valkyries are the essence of war itself. For those foolish enough to cross the Valkyries, the last thing they will see is the muzzle flash of their gilded guns, or the glint of steel as their blades fall.
Look forward to brand new articles diving deep into the lore, culture, and history of the Valkyries, such as Mjölnirsnatt (Overview) and Ritual #2139 (Silencing). As well as those, there are brand new stories in the works, including The Healer's Burden, In The Wind, and The Mayor.
As with Transmission 0, Transmission 1 will include subtransmissions, the first of which will be SubTransmission 1.1.
___
Transmission.2 will be a return to standards and will be Array:1's only general purpose Transmission. Contained inside of it will be the usual variety pack of unassociated articles and entries exploring the universe of Into Infinity in general. There's a lot of great stuff in the works for that.
