The presence of more leaks is of course, notable.

However, it's the words I've heard that strike me as far more intriguing, and potentially far more hazardous then the mana leaks.

"[i]Null[/i]?"

The word leaves my lips almost unconsciously. Faster then even my thought acceleration. There's no doubt in my mind that's what I heard, and yet I want to verify it.

It's not as if 'null' is an uncommon term when it comes to digital systems. However, this is not simply a case of a 'null condition'.

It sounds as if it is a far more specific term.

Could it truly be a reference to the dark god of the Era of Discordia? But what could it mean?

Naturally, this is the sort of conundrum that a genius exists to pursue, but that does not mean I shall not be cautious of potential dangers.

"Visiting Security would be ideal," I say, after a moment's pause, "But I want to peruse the databanks as well. I cannot allow that reference to 'Null' to escape further investigation."

I can't say that I have enough information as of yet to form a more detailed hypothesis, but at the moment the reference to the dark god stands out like a scorching hot inferno in the middle of the void. I have to perform a deeper investigation.
