It's... mainly concentrated in Cerneveaul, where the Research Institute and the Royal Castle are. We have access to a little more of it in Chedis, but much of it is restricted. It's only through his connections that my butler was able to acquire a camera...
Hm... well, it's probably because most of our efforts go into research on the curse, or on Relivers. We couldn't really afford to spend resources on everyone having things like cameras... transmitters are already sort of uncommon.
The ocean around the island is too rough for us to leave safely, or others to sail there... most of what we know of the outside world recently is from books and other materials that wash up on the shore. Th-that's why my family are translators.
We don't know. Our records about the Drifter don't make any mention of his death... so we have no idea whether he succumbed to the curse, too, after landing on the island, or if he lived out the rest of his life there.
It was. He had a few books with him, when he arrived, that he shared with the people he met-- one stayed with my family, who learned to study other languages, a-and one was on genetics.
Our scientists used that to begin the research that led to Scien creating Relivers.

Really? It seems pretty old fashioned to me.

[hm. well.]
...well, Scien might still have managed, honestly.

Probably, but I'm glad for anything that helped it happen faster.
