I very much look forward to seeing a Millenarian try to cope with HQ. Very, very much. (I can't help but read Peregrin's line about the Real World as cynical to the nth degree. "Oooh, you're from the ~Real World~? Tell me more!" Especially given the theories put about in Anathem. Usually, we call it World One, since in the multiverse it's no more or less real than any other continuum.)

In short, your agents are interesting, your writing sample is intriguing, and permission is most definitely granted. Carry on!
