jistou
Jistou is a fictional energy-like phenomenon described in a science fiction setting. It is a semi-stable entangled energy that interacts with biological and computational systems, serving as a substrate for memory encoding and pattern formation without traditional matter transfer.
Etymology: The term derives from the constructed language of the Xelori, combining ji- meaning essence and stou
Characteristics: Jistou is ordinarily described as field-like, colorless and odorless, propagating along neural and circuit pathways.
Discovery and use: Jistou was first described by researchers at the Helix Institute in the late 21st
Safety and ethics: Misuse can cause memory distortion or identity fragmentation. Regulatory bodies govern extraction, consent,
