We all know what happened at Altar... Or do we? A bizarre nuero-mutation created a psychopathic power-hungry billionaire set on enslaving humanity with robots, leading to the robot-uprising and the System Reset, and the outlawing of robot free-will... Riiiight, or corporate greed (I'm not going to name any names, buuut...) caused the assassination of a multi-billion dollar tech company along with the ostracization of all of it's employees and associates. Which one seems more likely? Honestly, it's Sol, so both of those seem probable. Regardless, supporting Altar will literally get you shadow-banned from life, which means, most Alts changed their names. Even then, one background search is enough to keep you in the same labor class as the andoro and gansaku.

  But quite a bit of us didn't change our names. What happened to us? Well, I'm in Ro right now (Yes, I passed Kon), and before the downfall of Altar, I most likely would have gone to Tokei Ro-ui or Tokei Jiniarin-ui, but now I can really go anywhere... Obviously, I'm going to go to Tokei Gengo-ui, and I will probably use this blog in junction with my Jukuren to get in (fingers crossed). There's no way I'm getting hired at Iden, so I might as well settle for becoming some crackpot linguists professor at Taiyo and change my name to Nimeo Taiberry or something similarly stupid. Okay - enough tangents, I'm on a mission here.

  When Altar went down, the street militia (privately owned, by the way) started hunting down Alts. They left behind enough Alts to make it seem like nothing suspicious was going on, but quite a few families went missing. These were people that were very prominent employees of Altar. I guess it's a good thing my family wasn't deemed important enough, or we might have gone missing too. Now what's left of us is just an ugly reminder of what happens when you misbehave in Sol. A lot of people argued that Iden was behind the corpo-takedown because they wanted a monopoly on the labor force with their gansaku. Yet, who owns robotic development now? ParaTech & Gu, with a very big interest from Aidoru. It's kind of weird, though... No company has publicly added "Robotics" to their title yet, and everyone's been afraid to release a new line of andoro. HOWEVER, the Altar andoro are still being maintained by Gu ???

  I did hear somewhere that ParaTech was working on a new line of andoro with heavy funding by Iden, so... PROBABLY ALL OF THE RIJI WERE BEHIND THE FALL OF ALTAR. I doubt it was hard to convince any of them... But who is the one puppeteering it all? And why?

These are just the questions that run through my head on a daily basis, and it's no wonder everyone thinks I'm going to end up a zip jumper.

  Well, what are your thoughts? Does anyone have any intel on what happened to Altar? Let me know in the comments if you do.
