The Statistical Archive existed in a dimension of pure information, where numbers and data took on physical form like crystalline structures that could be touched, examined, and experienced rather than merely observed. Reed materialized here at the request of the Consciousness Council, his role as Wounded Sage granting him access to records that few beings were permitted to witness.
Before him stretched an endless gallery of quantified tragedy—the complete casualty assessment of their war against the Dark. Each statistic was rendered as a living monument, pulsing with the residual consciousness of those it represented.
"Forty-seven percent," announced the Archive Keeper, a being whose form had become so intertwined with data that it existed as living mathematics. "That is the percentage of known consciousness that has been subsumed into the Reality Firewall. Not destroyed, but... transformed beyond individual recognition."
