51- Mine Modeling
	But Proteena can't detect the signal as Zymachi do, so Yeoman Zymachi starts to build one of those "mnemonic shapes", as they call them, that displays the mutual distance between Central Unit and Zymachi. It comes out a three dimensional scaled representation of the Mine, slowly merging into a dummy of Kerenskij himself. "So this is the Mine, a living being vast as a continent... and Central Unit transmits from the center of the head..."
	Zymachi use some sort of harpoons so to select tunnels and guide their Jellywhale as close as possible to the target. Then they leave the flow, trespassing a sort of fishnet that prevents Jellyfish to go further.
	Suddenly they reach Cycledweller outposts. The surroundings of the Mine have been excavated and exploited, we see entire tunnels torn down, redirected towards the Fortress and stitched toghether.
52- Welcome Ceremony.
	Zymachi transform into combat Jelly Rovers several Machines attracted in the area .
	Proteena closes up holding high on her head the baby Spiky. One of the Jelly Rovers picks up and kisses the baby, then passes it to a companion: it looks like the ancient Welcome Ceremony performed by Outer fathers. Proteena stays in the middle, Healer Zymachi approaches her and re-opens the slit she has on one side, taking out the Mnemonic String.
	The string goes from one Jelly Rover to the other, enriches with other pieces of string, then re-enters Proteena that slowly transforms, becoming a sort of Outer Father. She joins the ceremony, then puts the baby Spiky in a special cradle that Yeoman Zymachi prepared for him. The mighty warriors head towards the target.
53- Free Fortress Defenders.
