"The Seventh Fonon can mimic atoms," he says. "As can the others, but except in extremely high concentrations, those constructs are unstable. Living replicas are all made out of the Seventh Fonon."
As for pure energy... He seems to relax, a little, as the subject moves away from replicas. "Any fonon, if gathered in a strong enough concentration, will eventually form a consciousness of its own. Most fonons only have one such entity as a manifestation - I'd assume that the primary consciousness eventually absorbs any others that might manifest, but I don't know. It's a very esoteric line of study since it's hard to observe those entities in any meaningful way, since most of them reside in the upper atmosphere. Lorelei, the sentience of the Seventh Fonon, wasn't even confirmed to exist until very recently, and was mostly known through mythology and scripture."
and it looks like we might get AIR PRESSURE after all
