Each voyage is one fake identity that must anchor in kernel, a host-attested registry admitting one voyage per physical host; every anchor burns ivory equal to the live host count already in kernel. Adding a thousand therefore needs a thousand distinct hosts and ivory summing past 500,000, since each serial commit raises the count the next anchor reads. The bill is one attested host plus that ivory per voyage, attached to each kernel commit. It fails if hosts can be virtualized or kernel commits in parallel.
