Is the name Anoikis known to pilots, and how did it arise?

Hey folks!

So. Anoikis. We've seen the word floating around, we know its meaning-- but the question is: is it known in-character? If so, how did it enter in-character useage?

The first Chronicle that came out called Anoikis used it so...I'd guess it's usable? I think Hilen Tuukos even used it.

Alright-- that gives it some in-character value. I guess I'm just trying to get how much we know decisively, and how much we merely theorize about.

Eh CCP isn't gonna say one way or the other most likely. It's probably up to the players about if/when it's used.

It has been stated somewhere that Anoikis is the term the Jovians used for wormhole space...

It's no use going back to yesterday, because I was a different person then, and it's a poor sort of memory that only works backward.

Ah! Alright-- on which note, have we seen or heard from the Jovians since the isogen-5 detonations and access to W-space started?

It's consensus that the Sleepers are the Jove pre-first Empire, hence the research into non-natural teleology (the wasting meme-disease that affects the Jove) and such things, yeah?
