Prediction: Atlantis wasn't a catastrophe that the Mirror was too late to avert. Rather, the Mirror was completed, and the Atlanteans removed themselves to a realm of existence within the Mirror. Confidence: 5%.

Thing is, on that line, this would sorta become a simulation fic, and Yudkowsky said it wasn't that.

Didn't he also say there wouldn't be AI in it?

I think he said 'Harry won't create an AI' but I don't have the source.

I don't think it's really a simulation fic if simulations exist but the main story level isn't in one.
