"It is important to make a dream of life and of a dream reality."

393 AC - It's strange how obvious truths can sometimes quiet our curiosity. Oh, Aerolith, sure, that's the ore we use to defy gravity. We've known about it for centuries, and no one's ever really questioned it. No need, since we know what it does. It's startling to think that it wasn't until the Guilds were structured into Factions that research on Aerolith resumed. Yes, it makes things levitate, but how? Why? By what mechanism? We've known for ages that the material is highly exothermic, but linking that natural explosiveness to its potential electromagnetic properties… Marie finishes her annotations. The annals say that she had exposed the radioactive properties of certain substances during her lifetime, that she had made the invisible visible, so to speak.

I could have worked on the subject alone in my free time, but my research would have taken forever. So I greased a few palms to make sure certain people looked the other way while I grabbed a little something from the Kelon reserves… And with that in hand, I was able to have Marie take over for me during the day, when I was on site or following the other Exalts… in accelerated training mode. She hands me the notebook, and I consult the data that she's methodically recorded. There are notes here on resonance, vibration, friction… Back in the old days, Aerolith was considered an energy source, but the substance was deemed too unstable. But is that still true today, with our current technology?

Born in Warsaw in 1867, Marie Skłodowska-Curie was a Polish chemist and physicist who became a French citizen. A two-time Nobel laureate, she is known (along with Henri Becquerel and her husband Pierre) for her research on radioactive materials like polonium and radium. Despite her immense contributions to scientific knowledge, she died of leukemia in 1934 after excessive exposure to radium and X-rays.
