It’s possible “deviant automata” could refer to the Sleepers or even the Drifters. Given how isolated the Triglavians seem to be from the rest of the galaxy, they may not be able to easily tell the difference.
Look, on a brief aside, can I just say that all of this stuff scares me a little? I’m fairly well-versed in quantum and spatio-temporal phenomena, and yet I couldn’t even begin to tell you - at least in any meaningful terms - where Abyssal Deadspace is in relation to New Eden. Some of the things I’ve seen so far strongly suggest to me that “where” might not even be the right word.
