The Rapid Evening is a galactic intercessory group with access to highly advanced technology. It appears to have at least fifty thousand--if not more--years of continuity.

The machine which directs the Rapid Evening from the planet of Kesh (created in the period between COUNTER/Weight and Twilight Mirage) is referred to as Crystal Palace[note 1].

Structure

Some agents appear to act on their own as spies and/or saboteurs, reporting information to higher-ups and acting as necessary (such as Jamil or Natalya). Squad formations include Heresy Squads designed to target Divines, like the one led by Tetsuya Mori in COUNTER/Weight.

The existence of the Mirage Division suggests that agents and squads are broadly grouped into divisions that work in specific areas, though it's unclear if this was true before the Rapid Evening began to expand its remit outside the Golden Branch. Primary-Satellite pairs like Demani and Gray probably did not exist prior to the creation of Crystal Palace.

Notes

  1. A reference to the Crystal Palace, a once-standing plate-glass structure in London. Various exhibitions of technology and art were held within as a demonstration of the wealth and power of the British Empire. Crystal Palace became a symbol of progress, harmony and modernity until its destruction by fire in 1936.
