| "In The Algebraist, Iain M. Banks reveals a creature with 'signal skin.' Here's a quote: 'Fassin opened the pane and let the creature in. It flipped inside, made a sign that was probably meant to be the Dweller equivalent of 'Shh!' and floated towards him, curling and cupping its body so that it formed a sickle shape, just a metre away from the prow of the arrowhead craft.
