Sideridis
Sideneutronsavaldeveritris, known in short as Sideridis, was a Lesser Time Elemental Neutronide farmer who worked on House Neutronides' estates outside the Cathedral of Time on the Morning Star. He tended to κοως on his farm, for whom he was a strong advocate of their personhood, and wrote in a diary in the lead-up to the Cosmic Revolution, detailing the mistaken abduction of his κοως by the Hyperspace Tyrants.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
Sideridis was listed as an academic graduate in the Carcosa Litany 3678 local years before the Cosmic Revolution. At the time of their graduation, he was in a romantic triad with Hasturmenipolyphagavoltar, who he referred to as Haz, and Fabulastonvetermickerrmilipod.
One day, Sideridis wrote in their diary of 76, one of many κοως who he considered a friend, contrary to the ideas of many other Elementals. He wrote that 76, as well as their other κοως including 289, had been abducted by a "great rigid disk" likely piloted by the Hyperspace Tyrants, and detailed 76's abduction, though stated that the "Old Man", the Patrician of House Neutronides, did not believe them.

Legacy[[edit] | [edit source]]
In 2144, Zacharia Chróma listed Sideridis in School Reunion: The Carcosa Litany Considered as an Institutional Record of the L.T.E.s, which included a list of identified academic graduates from the Carcosa Litany.
In 2323, Olivia Kagg Waldermein wrote about an extract of the diary in Love & War: A Meta-Historical Investigation of the Dawn of the Cosmic Revolution. She stated that Sideridis was a relatively common Elemental name but was able to pinpoint them as Sideneutronsavaldeveritris due to the geographical clues in the diary lining up with records of the House Neutronides estates in the Cadaster of Urizen. It put forward that the Patrician of House Neutronides may have been the closest thing Sideridis had to a father, and argued that Sideridis may have used the diary as evidence for a lawsuit presented to the First Sphere or Presidential Council. She uncovered that the Hyperspace Tyrant culprits may have mistaken the κοως for people, and commented that while it was unclear whether the κοως were returned to the estate, "Sideridis himself would have found some comfort in the fact that his dear grazers' abduction came as a consequence of an earnest assumption that they were, indeed, people, just as he has been arguing for so long."
