The activities of humankind do not concern the colossal, ineffable, super-beings of the dimensions above ours any more than the splitting of a single bacterium concerns a typical human. For the most part, the larger and the smaller creature in each situation are so different in scale as to be irrelevant to one another. But there are such things as biological scientists. And microscopes. And dangerous infections. Alef is doing things it shouldn't. Something wakes up and starts watching. It is a very bad idea to attract the gods' attention.
