0x2A757-PRL | Carthium Mines
Datapedia ID: 0x2A757-PRL While there is no actual mining of raw minerals in virtual platforms such as the //PRL, certain automated background processes have a tendency to manifest visually and become observable by the platform’s citizens. It turned out it wasn’t feasible to patch these manifestations outright, and so the //PRL developers implemented a secondary…

Datapedia ID: 0x2A756-PRL After deserting his creators for their weakness of character, the “Phantom” of the //PRL carved a shrine of refuge out of a monolith in the Dustlands.

0x2A754-ii-PRL | Cricket Garden (Page 2)
The //PRL influences creations in the physical world, as much as the other way around. For example, the Cricket Garden caught the eye of one of The Weave’s most established concert pianists, Lyna Wish.

0x2A754-PRL | Cricket Garden
Datapedia ID: 0x2A754-PRL The creatures that roam the //PRL are actually source-transparent AI, and so anyone can theoretically copy, refine and extend them.

0x2A753-PRL | Substrate Tachyon Station
Datapedia ID: 0x2A753-PRL Being a digital platform, many people think that engineering the //PRL is all about writing lines of code.

Datapedia ID: 0x2A751-PRL In the extended Divha Industrial Zone, a village was built to support the local manufacturing workforce.

Datapedia ID: 0x2A74F-PRL An abandoned factory sits on the outskirts of //PRL’s Industrial Town of Divha.

Datapedia ID: 0x2A73F-PRL The Parallel (stylized as //PRL) is the digital world that most people in The Weave happily log into each day.
