Reflection Station

A signal relay outpost using polished crystal panels to bounce coded light messages across the Expanse. Reflection Station is essential for communication in a region where sound carries strangely and conventional messengers get disoriented by the mirrored terrain. It maintains contact with West Mirror Post and Glass Reach. Out in the Glass Expanse, this site is part of the network of prism-fields, shard-towns, and silica plateaus that surround Prism City. Light bends here in ways the Pattern cannot quite hold — the air sometimes refracts a scene from a different hour, and the Starving Silence forms where light has shattered the same way too many times in the same place. The Knowledge Fragmentation Principle was first formalised by Expanse philosophers a generation before the Luminous Fold accepted it.
