Roadmakers
What the Ferren call Earth-humans.
In full
In Ferren speech the seam network is simply the road, and the people who build and open roads are roadmakers. It is descriptive before it is an accusation — and it stops being only descriptive the moment anyone works out what the road costs. Courteous, never deferential.
Key facts
- Ferren term for Earth-humans; the network itself is the road.
- Descriptive in origin; accusatory by implication.
- Used to Earth's face, without deference.
