Gimble: Introduction

(NOTE: This original journal was written in Mimyn, on a personal journal device. It has been translated from its original language and format and contextualized to fit this new format.)

So, here we are: trapped on an alien world we know almost nothing about. Constructing a new projector to get home is our main goal, but who knows how long that will take, even assuming we can find the right resources. In the meantime, we're going to do what we've always done -- research.

Flink was damaged in our escape -- her personality was intact, but her long-term memory banks were wiped. Other than our own memories and handheld data storage devices, we no longer have access to our encyclopedia of Mimyn knowledge. We're going to have to start from scratch using information we gather here. Some information never changes regardless of what planet we're on, while there will no doubt be plenty of unique data we have to learn to survive here.

Writing journals is an intrinsic part of my nature, but Yonkers is suggesting we all participate in this blog. The information we present will be useful to the folks back home (once we have some sort of functioning communication system), the larvae in Katzenjammer's orphaned eggs, and even the humans themselves. No one else here has access to a oneironment simulator other than us, so we're going to use local information systems such as wikis, forums, and blogs, as well as anything new that we find.
