| - | If the trans-dimensional energy entering the lattice - the sieve - isn't removed quickly enough, the photons will soak up the energy, acting like capacitors. Once the charge is high enough, the gauge-bosons making the lattice will greedily steal it, growing denser and denser, shrinking rapidly as they attract one another. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Eventually comes a point where the lattice can become no denser, known as degenerancy - at which it overlaps, with pairs of bosons acting bizzarely like single particles. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If further compression is attempted, the lattice will snap back like a rubber band, expanding massively. As the amplitude expands, the volume of energy pulled through will grow exponentially. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Clever computer control can hold an expanding lattice, feeding its energy into an empty one like the ventricles of a beating heart - essentially playing a game of hot-potato. When the game stops, the lattice expands uncontrollably. | ||
| - | |||
| - | During this rapid expansion, trans-dimensional energy pours through the lattice with massive pressure, destroying it in a massive explosion that distorts the shape of space itself. | ||

| - | That is the 'Aeon bomb', the first true aeonic weapon, commonly used on starships (for example, the AS-7, used by XXXXX vessels). Aeon grenades do exist but are quite rare and not at all practical. | ||

| - | A practical example of an Aeon Bomb would be the Aeon-Flechette, | ||
