Each of them without hope, they turn to this opportunity as a possible escape.

GM Notes

Summary of character attitudes:

Name Plans on Ascension
Nerve-7 Unsure, leaning towards ascending. (Mild "For")
Jourdain Beadle Unsure completely. (Neutral)
Tobor Absolutely will not. (Strong "Against")
Uv'ols Gabour Absolutely will. (Strong "For")
Allai Unsure, leaning towards not. (Mild "Against")

Safety Concerns

The process of "Ascension to the Abstract" could be taken as a kind of suicide, though existing Abstractly is its own form of life.
