Civilopedia entry
The Paean is an incredible feat of technology with an admirable purpose. This satellite, designed to maintain the wellbeing of those in its vicinity, controls a swarm of small robots. These nano-bots filter the surrounding air of harmful pollutants and dangerous prokaryotic or viral organisms. This allows humans to safely work in the area without fear of infection. The swarm is also able to monitor the wellbeing of those in the area, and often detect illness long before it would otherwise be discovered by doctors.
