D’ni Holiday: The Great Crash

D’ni Holiday: The Great Crash

On 18 September 2014 the primary matrix of the KI-device, known as “the Lattice”, suffered a major cascade failure, leading to a subsequent event known as the “Great Crash” of its virtual processing nodes. Unable to utilize the Nexus or rely upon the KI-coordinate system from the Great Zero, travel to and from the cavern became hazardous at best. Thankfully, through dedicated efforts of several Restoration Engineers, the Lattice was restored to functionality after weeks of dedicated work. There were severe data corruption issues, however.Both the KI-devices and Lattice were able to be restarted only at their “baseline” state, very similar to that which the DRC encountered when investigating the cavern during the first Restoration. It is unknown at this time if Victor Laxman was consulted during these repairs.Access to Nexus and various cavern locations may now be visited with relative safety, assuming normal precautions are taken during such explorations.
