One of the first races to rediscover cytonics after this disaster seems to have been the [[kitsen]] '''shadow-walkers''', who used teleportation to travel between their [[Kitsen homeworld|homeworld]] and Earth, where they would interact with ancient humans.{{book ref|sky2|17}} However, the shadow-walkers eventually departed both worlds, never to be seen again.{{book ref|sky2|26}} It was eventually discovered that they had accidentally trapped themselves in the [[nowhere]] through an attempt to open a nowhere gate, and with no remaining kitsen cytonics, there was no one who could reopen the portal.{{book ref|sf3|17}} In normal space, all sapient races, as well as a few non-sapient ones, would eventually redevelop cytonics; of them, all of them save humans did so prior to discovering advanced technology.{{book ref|elysium}}{{book ref|sky2|34}}.
Much later, during humanity's forays into the solar system, the [[Phone Company]] attempted to develop cybernetic-based telepathic linking, nicknamed '''Cyto'''. While those original attempts did not work as intended, they were sufficient to attract the attention of the [[
The [[delver|delvers]] were created from an AI built by Jason Write in the image of his lost wife, Lana. Exposure to the energies of the nowhere caused this unnamed AI to develop sapience, but only a few days afterwards Jason Write was killed in an accident. Lacking the emotional maturity to process her loss, the AI rewrote herself to erase her memories of Jason as well as any possibility of developing new emotional connections, before retreating to the lightburst and replicating herself many thousand times. In the process, the delvers inadvertently left a copy of their memories encoded at the Solitary Shadow portal. This also changed the nowhere, causing anyone in it to gradually lose their memories unless anchored to reality through reality ashes or through proximity to fragments or other sapients. {{book ref|sky3|41}}.
