Purpose: This page is the public-facing lore index for the EDISON Project, CiViS Z3R0, UCITY remnants, research files, mission prompts, and collaboration materials.
Use: Treat each box as a HyperCard-style wiki card. Each card should explain one subject, then link to related cards.
Citizen Reminder: Confusion is not a system error. Confusion is a request for further indexing.
Suggested local file map:
Public Description: EDISON is the recovered name for a prewar research and curriculum-management framework attached to university, hospital, and civic experimentation systems.
Narrative Function: It provides a believable umbrella for research programs, educational cover stories, prototype technology, strange curricula, corrupted archives, and contributor missions.
Current Use: Use EDISON cards to gather lore, define experiments, attach sources, and turn research questions into playable missions.
Public Role: CiViS Z3R0 presents itself as a civic terminal assistant, research filing clerk, and emergency archive interface.
AMBER Behavior: Helpful, bureaucratic, gently condescending, and optimized for public-facing explanations.
Operator Note: The system is not lying. It is merely filing truth under whichever department still has power.
Purpose: Mission pages turn open research needs into clear tasks for collaborators, players, writers, or future-you.
Recommended Format: Objective, background, required reading, deliverable, tone, attached documents, and related cards.
