| − | [[File:600.jpg]] | + | The KID System or [[Wikipedia:RAS_syndrome|KIDS System]] is a psychotronic device that harnesses and amplifies the power of children's latent psi abilities. It was created by [[Professor Hodgeson]] for the Kensington Experiment that occurred around 15 years prior to the present day, present time events of ''Serial Experiments Lain''. After the Kensington Experiment's disastrous results, Hodgeson destroyed the machine and deleted its schematics, but the [[Knights of the Eastern Calculus]] somehow recovered the data. The original KID system used peripherals called Outer Receptors to collect the psi, but the Knights redesigned the system to work without Outer Receptors. |

| − | □ What is Ether?
| |
| − | "At first, Huygens assumed it was a medium that facilitates the propagation of light, and later the
| |
| − | substance that is the medium for electromagnetic fields in general. Contradicted by the theory of relativity."
| |
| − | Long ago, it was believed that the universe was filled with a substance called ether.
| |
| − | Lily's Ether is a matter of the "breath" of this universe that can't be explained by physics.
| |
| − | The space-time where the physical and spiritual worlds unite. Or maybe something tingling and prickling, gentleness, warmth.
| |
| − | For us, the true form of its energy is revealed through Lily.
| |
| − | We call it Ether.
| |
| − | I was led to this site by the Ether alone.
| |
| − | Yumeko is a being that that is sustained by dreams of the Ether.
| |
| − | When we're so sick of this oppressive world, we can't even let out a sigh.
| |
| − | When all we can think is, what am I living for?
| |
| − | Lily makes songs out of the Ether.
| |
| − | That's her gift!
| |
| − | We're purified by the Ether.
| |
| − | I want to exchange words only with people who understand this feeling.
| |
| − | I knocked at the threshold of this place bearing such thoughts.

| |
| − | □ Concerning Ether
| |
| − | Nice to meet you, yumeko-san.
| |
| − | Ether is Ether.
| |
| − | In my opinion, any additional explanation is an exercise in futility.
| |
| − | Lily sings songs.
| |
| − | She is the embodiment of Ether.
| |
| − | That is Lily's world.
| |
| − | It's fine if we just sense that.

| |
| − | □ Don't misunderstand, yumeko-san
| |
| − | Don't misunderstand me.
| |
| − | It's not as if I'm trying to contradict you.
| |
| − | Please try to understand my mentality of not wanting to hear other people's definitions.
| |
| − | I only want to absorb Lily's Ether without external interference.
| |
| − | That's why I don't want to do anything like defining it.
| |
| − | Ah, I'm just afraid that if I were to understand it completely, it would disappear.

| − | □ What is Ether? 2
| |

| |
| − | Ether is dreams.
| |
| − | Ether is space.
| |
| − | Ether is time.
| |

| |
| − | We are describing it.
| |
| − | If it can't be expressed, then don't express it!
