Ed: To clarify, the Gap is the glitched pockets of space. The Other is its hyper-dangerous indigenous fauna.

I just have a question. Is the existence of the Gap common knowledge? It seems like many insignificant characters have knowledge of it... >.> <.<

Gods can figure it out fairly easily, since they can see the underlying fabric of creation, so if they come across a glitchy space they'll be able to make an educated guess about what it is and probably realise that there's something toothy living in there.

The hain would have given names to the visions they see when they approach their second hatching, but I don't think they would know that nature of the gap. Except maybe sculptors, but that's Jvan's whisperings. I'm not sure how detailed they are.

It's mentioned that drug-induced hallucinations sometimes reveal that there are holes and cavities in normal space, so tribes with a religious tradition around mescaline or such might figure it out experimentally. Sculptors can detect pockets, which helps facilitate their reproduction.

Guys, just to clarify, the Gap isn't as big or as bad as I initially thought. It's not the size of the universe, more like small pockets (or gaps, weirdly enough xP) here and there. There are some terrible creatures in there, gods and mortals alike would be badly affected by exposure to it, (as you guys saw with Jvan) but with potential for some kind of resistance to develop with exposure (as happened with Jvan)

Also helps that her domain is Weird (Meat), which the Other is made of, and Weird (Maths), which is where it lives. :hehe
