Voxophone 7/?? - Voice
Citizens of Luceti.
[It is, perhaps, the first time Robert Lutece has ever used the journal as an actual means of reaching the community at large rather than simply a voxophone others happened to hear and respond to.
For all intents and purposes, he sounds as if he's discussing the weather or another phase in the Lutece Field he and Rosalind have been attempting to re-discover here and the machine they intend to re-build.
It's a very calm, very scientific tone.]
I would like to know if anyone here has information regarding conception, gestation, and delivery of children as it pertains to Luceti.
Physics is my specialty, but I am well-versed in anatomy and biology. [He does not need the "birds and bees" talk. That isn't the purpose of this.] However, there are anomalies in this world in regards to anatomy and biology -- the wings, for instance.
It is of interest to me whether these changes or the progression of the alterations of reality commonly referred to as "shifts" affect the aforementioned topics.
[...And yes, that is all he's going to say on the topic. Not why it matters or why he's decided to start researching this. It's simply stated as a matter of fact.]
Any information or Luceti-specific literature on the subject would be most helpful.
Thank you.

There are genetic predispositions to madness. There are also cultural and societal discrepancies between what is considered madness. Much of it can, also, be political.
He's seen all of them before.
That is a point to consider, though it brings up questions he highly doubts -- as there is apparently no literature on the development of those born into this world -- he can get answers to with any sort of scientific probability.
But it does introduce one question he feels he can ask:]
What steps have been taken to see that this doesn't happen with the child still in this enclosure? Are there arrangements made in the case that they start showing said madness?

I would be curious to know what measures have been taken and what further would be if such an eventuality occurred, especially if the threat of that sort of madness is likely enough to warn others off having children here.

Well then, I'm not one to butt into people's personal lives, but I will join the chorus with this warning: This is Luceti. There's only a handful of people left from even when I showed up, let alone people who have been here more like five, six years. In all likelihood, anyone in this enclosure will be gone before a kid here's a toddler.
