Object
Traditional Irish Instruments (Atmospheric)
A compact cluster of unamplified folk instruments carried into the cargo hold to color Danilo’s storytelling. Weathered, portable and modest in size, their wood, skin and metal timbres sit low under speech, producing soft rhythmic pulses and plaintive melodic punctuations that still the noisy space and draw listeners’ attention toward the recited myth.

Purpose
To provide soft musical accompaniment and atmospheric coloration for Danilo’s oral performance, accentuating cadence and mood without dominating the scene.
Significance
The instruments bind story and setting: their soundtrack lends cultural authenticity to the Bringloidi origin myth, concentrates the room’s attention, and helps create the reflective conditions in which Picard pieces together the Mariposan dual‑colony insight.
