Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold.

Transcript For Strip 1862
Panel 1Cut to the landing bay in Alyss' mansion. Diana and Areum are walking up to Monty's Panther avatar. Areum looks uncertain.
Caption: And so, shortly:
Monty: You know, if you'd called in advance I could've had some of your favorite ice cream ready for you.
Diana: Well, my loss. Good seeing you anyway, ya old Snaggletooth.
Panel 2
Three-shot of Monty, Diana, Areum doing the customary greeting ritual.
Diana: All kidding aside, Areum is my bodyguard, who also insists on being my chauffeur.
Diana: Areum, this is also Monty, the house Cê-esse. One of many avatars you might find here.
Areum: Understood. You would logically have many different sorts of duties here, and the avatars are your customized tools.
Panel 3
Diana hugs the Panther as Areum looks on.
Diana: That's Areum's way of saying 'a pleasure to meet you.'
Monty: Such a charming companion. Asperger's is curable here, you know.
Diana: Speaking of cures, I need to talk to you about my headaches.
Panel 4
Diana and Monty walk away together, with Areum following close behind.
Monty: Still happening? When you use a hopper or Murphy gate?
Diana: Yeah. I'd hoped they'd go away, but they've gotten worse, I think.
Monty: That just won't do at all. Step into my parlor.
Diana: No spider jokes this time, please.
