A Taste of the Lash | |
| Ibyabek / int_117b3429 | comment |
A Taste of the Lash: Used in the criminal justice system on Ibyabek. Sarham was punished in this way for unauthorized use of the skylace. | |

Mandatory Motherhood | |
| Ibyabek / int_1b36b313 | comment |
Mandatory Motherhood: Ibyabek takes the stance that "if only some people can do an essential job they had better do it". The job is somewhat more essential given their infant mortality rate. | |

Alternative Calendar | |
| Ibyabek / int_1d47dc06 | comment |
Alternative Calendar: Every planet has to have one, but most of them also use the Earth year. Kyeo is taught that this is pathological and that Ibyabekan units are much more natural. | |

Food Interrogation | |
| Ibyabek / int_1f171944 | comment |
Food Interrogation: Subverted. An Ibyabekan prisoner of war thinks Outer Sohaibekans are trying this. They aren't — the food situation in Ibyabek is so bad that Outer Sohaibekan prison food is a step up. | |

Parental Abandonment | |
| Ibyabek / int_297ab1b9 | comment |
Parental Abandonment: Normalized on Ibyabek. Close relationships between parents and their adult children are seen as "primitive" and unnecessary in a society where everyone can (supposedly) rely on the People for all of their needs. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture: The Sohaitok star system is a sci-fi analogue for the Korean Peninsula, with Ibyabek/Inner Sohaibek standing in for North Korea and Outer Sohaibek standing in for South Korea. | |

Fake Town | |
| Ibyabek / int_6e0206c | comment |
Fake Town: Ambassadors to Ibyabek are housed in a miniature village. It's not very good at its job, though: A child drawing with sidewalk chalk continues to pretend to draw after running out of the stuff, the free grocery store often stocks spoiled food and local Ibyabekans only visit it on an obvious schedule, et cetera. | |

Dystopia Is Hard: Participation in black markets is widespread. The Academy of Merit in the capitol still includes students discussing "what teachers they bribed and what tests they cheated on and what pornography they were hacking the skylace connection to deliver". | |

Broken-System Dogmatist | |
| Ibyabek / int_8c918c9d | comment |
Broken-System Dogmatist: Kyeo believes that Ibyabek is the best place in the galaxy to live despite experiencing the inefficiencies of their economy in his daily life, such as even his elite school having limited access to hot water, electricity, and fresh food. After his worldview is challenged by Sarham showing him pictures that display the wealth and freedom of Kular, Kyeo holds even tighter to his beliefs as a defense mechanism. | |

Future Food Is Artificial: Subverted. Kyeo worries about non-Ibyabekans eating "synthetic protein cubes or something awful like that". However, the only protein cubes appearing in the work are tofu. | |

Weapon of Mass Destruction | |
| Ibyabek / int_b116ac06 | comment |
Weapon of Mass Destruction: During the war that divided Ibyabek from Outer Sohaibek, Old Sohaibek was devastated by a "melter", a weapon that did exactly what its name suggests to much of the planet's surface. Ibyabekan propaganda teaches that Outer Sohaibek deployed this weapon, while at least some Outer Sohaibekans believe that Ibyabek was responsible. The story never explicitly says what really happened. | |
