Y'know, with as much...well, not flippancy, but lack of description of the sheer scope as the Dyson Sphere gets in FI, this certainly restores the sheer sense of awe. I don't know how, but somehow through the entirety of it, I forgot that there are two ENTIRE PLANETS inside it. And they're rattling around like olives in Mylene's salad bowl analogy. If the thing's emergence was a shock, this story just hits on how FREAKING BIG it is. And Xeralia's comments makes me wonder where they found this thing.

And yet, I can't keep the grin off my face from that last bit with Komilla. Because an astronomically immense technological marvel can't compare.
