Myryn

I've previously mentioned the character "Myron", a rather minor character from the Cadwal Chronicles, by Jack Vance. In the Ekcolir Reality, apparently there were two different written versions of the story of Myron's life and here in the Final Reality we have our own version (Ecce and Old Earth). Nirutam provided me with some infites that contain relevant information; I was surprised to learn that "she" knew Myron, or at least a copy of Myron, who I will refer to as "Myryn".

According to Nirutam, Myryn and his wife Lydya lived a third life "on" Ret'fai during the time when Nirutam was being prepared for her mission on Earth.

Engineering a Reality Change
I must qualify the word "on" in this situation because while I previously imagined that Ret'fai was a single planet, my exploration of Nirutam's infites has revealed that Ret'fai is a kind of network for artificial lifeforms that includes many worlds that are spread through the entire Andromeda galaxy.

The most important connection between Myryn and Nirutam is that Nirutam was designed as a mind clone of Myryn. This little trick made sure that Nirutam could function as an Interventionist agent on Earth who had the ability to use G-sym technology and use it to verify that the terms of the Trysta-Grean Pact were being met. Nirutam was a kind of "Trojan horse" who could both operate on Earth and who I would believe had come from a distant galaxy.

Nirutam
From a purely personal perspective, I have to wonder if Nirutam arranged to spend the last part of her life living with Zeta and I because she needed to perform some delicate editing of my memories. It is annoying to be left wondering which of my memories might have been taken from me by Nirutam in an attempt to make sure that I don't reveal too much about the secret history of humanity and how our species was designed and crafted by aliens.

However, in "her" (a simultaneous hermaphrodite) own way, Nirutam seems to have wanted me to understand her motivations and her methods. When "she" provided me with a set of infites, she did so with the expectation that I would eventually (after she departed from Earth) understand her role as an Interventionist. I've sorted through her infites and here (below) is my reconstruction of the events on Ret'fai leading up to Nirutam's first meeting with Azynov.

Interventionists
I've long thought of planets such as Tar'tron and Klyz as being the planets in this galaxy where Interventionist agents were trained and prepared for their missions on Earth. However, there is also good evidence that these training centers have recently been shut down. It may be that the Andromeda galaxy had to be used for training Nirutam in advance of her functioning as the last pek agent on Earth.

However, information about Earth and training for how to prepare Nirutam to act like an Earthling had to be available in the Andromeda galaxy. Much of that Earthly knowledge was provided to Nirutam by people who originated in our galaxy and then were sent to Andromeda. Nirutam's infites contain information about two such people: Myryn and Lydya.

The Ret'fai network.
How did two humans from the Asimov Reality end up in the Andromeda galaxy, here in the Final Reality? Apparently, copies of Myryn and Lydya were first made in the Ekcolir Reality where they played a role in the complex Reality Change that brought the Buld Reality into existence. Nirutam did not know the details of how Myryn and Lydya functioned as Interventionist agent in the Ekcolir Reality.

However, Nirutam knew that Myryn and Lydya had been "rewarded" by the pek for their valuable work as Interventionist agents in the Ekcolir Reality by being given another life in the Final Reality. Lydya wanted to relax and have a family, however Myryn choose to be "reincarnated" as a nanoscopic artificial lifeform who could secretly go to Earth with Nirutam.

The Trysta-Grean Paradox
Everyone except for Nirutam who was "on" Ret'fai was apparently an artificial lifeform. I have no better name for Nirutam's home world, but apparently "Ret'fai" is not a single planet. It is actually a network of planets (many of them artificial) spread throughout the Andromeda galaxy, all constructed just to prepare Interventionist agents such as Nirutam for their missions on Earth.

The TG Paradox (TGP)
Rylla first made explicit the seeming contradiction that in order to verify that the terms of the Trysta-Grean Pact had been adhered to, the pek and the bumpha had to violate the Pact. The bumpha made use of a positronic robot (Dani) and the pek made use of an "alien" from the Andromeda galaxy, Nirutam.

Hierion physics
However, Nirutam is actually a human variant and Dani was been crafted so as to be indistinguishable from humans. Thus, nobody noticed the presence of either Dani or Nirutam while they were performing their missions on Earth.

I certainly did not notice the presence of Myryn while he was on Earth. According to the Nirutam infites, Myryn and Lydya had connections to the Writers Block. While preparing Nirutam for her mission on Earth, Lydya described The Triskelion star system of Alastor Cluster and the special role that it played in the development of human telepathy. Nirutam was present and living with Zeta and I during the time that I learned about Triskelion from Yōd. I suspect that Nirutam/Myryn was able to help me interpret that story of Triskelion that arrived as dream visions while I slept.

The Writers Block
In the archives of the Writers Block

Rylla and I are investigating the links between Lydya and the Writers Block. Apparently there are many stories by Lydya in the archives of the Writers Block.

I learned to think of the Writers Block as having been active during the Ekcolir Reality when science fiction stories were used to prepare the people of Earth for the arrival of the Fru'wu. It may be that Lydya was putting stories into the archives of the Writers Block during the Ekcolir Reality, and Rylla suggests that the Ret'fai network may have played an important role in crafting the Fru'wu. The Fru'wu were something of a disaster. Rylla suggests that Nirutam was on Earth and trying to prevent a similar catastrophe for our species.
