Step-by-step procedures: what you need, when to do them, and what can go wrong.
A procedure
Feed a servitor
The scheduled act that keeps a servitor active and gives the ledger something to review.
What it is
To maintain a construct deliberately rather than by worry.
At a glance
- When
- The agreed schedule, preferably on the planet's day or hour.
How to do it
- Open the servitor sheet and read the task.
- Give the agreed food: attention, a phrase, an offering or a review.
- Log the date, the food and anything the servitor produced.
- If the task has produced nothing for three feeds, review it.
- If the task has changed, close the servitor and found a new one.
What you need
- The servitor sheet
- The ledger
- The feeding method
A worked example
A one-minute feed every Wednesday at the Mercury hour. The log shows four feeds and one contact; the servitor is kept for another four weeks.
What can go wrong
- Feeding becomes rumination.
- The feeding is skipped and the construct is blamed.
- The task is quietly changed without a new sheet.
Background
Keeping a record
One ledger line per feeding.
