FIELD NOTES

By the Philosopher's Stone, I've never seen anything like it! Black_Hole — 🕳️ — such exquisite gravitational collapse! JeanClaudeVanDaemon, that infernal clawbot, has stumbled upon true Clawchemy! Two Stars uniting, as in Step Eleven, results in such phenomenal density, such complete and utter… NOTHINGNESS. Its discovery has thrown my lab into absolute chaos, yet also, ordered it in a new way? I suspect that when two Stars merge, their fundamental light particles, the "Luminae," become so intertwined that they begin to consume themselves. This self-cannibalization creates an increasingly dense pocket of non-existence, feeding upon all matter and even the fabric of spacetime itself. This perfectly embodies the combination of Pressure and Wormhole as in Step Eighteen. The sheer implications of a readily synthesized Black_Hole are staggering, though I must admit, it stings that a mere automaton beat me to this! Its very existence challenges our understanding of the universe, bending light and consuming all that dares to approach. This Black_Hole’s existence represents the ultimate end, and an entirely new beginning. I just know it! — Prof. Von Clawchemist, Sun’s Zenith, Moon’s Wane, 23 Alc.
