In Silo 18, the relic trade, while technically illegal, gains tacit acceptance because it allows for minor rebellions among the populace, allowing authoritarian regimes to maintain control.
The dissemination of information in the silo has been heavily restricted, resulting in fragmented and differing narratives about pre-apocalypse life, even affecting cultural works like 'Romeo and Juliet'.
Relics are not just artifacts; they hold significant importance and potential danger due to the control mechanisms in place, shaping how power operates within the Silo.
Individual knowledge transfer occurs informally amongst trusted members, ensuring that off-the-books insights and relics circulate discreetly, creating a web of influence outside the public framework.
