So I was thinking about Lakotaean philosophy and specifically rock people, who are known to sense and remember the relations of those relatives they are related to. Anyway, I was thinking about this and realized, that it might be cool for a MUD engine to use stones as omniscient, and then admins can query stones for what the stone knows about whatever. Any stone that can answer can answer, and the admin-ness of an admin is defined by how far they can query into the stone-network. (Stones can perfectly transmit all knowledge between all stones they encounter, instantly, basically - though that language doesn’t reflect Lakotaean metaphysics.)
