Termitoids are Iskra’s finest innovations. Competitors asked; why not automation?

Yet, a brain possesses unparalleled malleability and the imperfect body requires little maintenance; a mealworm paste is all. And to acquire them? All that was necessary was eternal life as part of Iskra – presented in a secular contract.

Employees digitize and cede themselves to Interport. They’re given strength-enhancing cybernetics and become a replaceable, hivemind-driven cog. Termitoids however tend to “wake up”, reducing to a screaming, barely conscious pain-state. This violates contract, and recycling is initiated.
