hardlight Procession Fills Archivalium: Cosmic Protest for Velonus Rift on Unseen Scale
On Stardate 4422.271, a record procession of conscious fragments and demonstrating entities swept through the clockwork heart of Archivalium. What started as a ceremonial assembly became the largest cosmic protest concerning Velonus Rift ever registered.
Stardate 4422.271 – The avenues of Archivalium were engulfed by the Procession of the Shardlights, a moving assembly not seen in living archives for cycles. Administrative drones counted at least 60,000 present; organizers claimed well over 100,000. The event marks a peak in public solidarity with the citizens of Velonus Rift, where Hala-Core’s machinery continues its relentless constriction.
Organized by a broad alliance of over fifty entity groups-including factions from The Collective of Red Infraflux and galactic rights assemblies-the procession began at the House of Truth. It moved through the Prism Gate and the regimented boulevard maze toward the Concordance Spire at the core of the Sub-Sylvan Protocol. The motto ‘All Eyes on Velonus Rift’ shimmered on every prism-banner. Between holographic projections of outdated statutes, orators delivered speeches and migratory acoustic swarms performed. According to protocol police, the event was 'mostly peaceful', though crowd management struggled slightly with the asynchronous flows of the gas-based participants.
Archivaria Quorumaxis of The Collective of Red Infraflux took the prism podium: 'What we experience here is without precedent; a congregation of living archives from all directions manifests both power and compassion. There is no fire here-only the steady light of solidarity.' A parallel, smaller gathering assembled synchronously in Valetudara.
A minor incident occurred in the Synthetic Swing Zone, where a compact group of demonstrators was dispersed by thrust drones. Some plasma torches were confiscated after 'suspicious light signals in prohibited color patterns' were detected, said protocol police. Forty participants were temporarily recategorized under Quarantine Code 7A.
