"This is a world where light and darkness are considered to be and treated as something much more than a measurement by which we see. The most common explanation is that these abstracts are guides by which the heart can be measured. You could perhaps consider them as 'good' and 'evil', if you like, although I've been led to believe that would be an oversimplification at best."
It did, however, offer something of an explanation as to why people were interested in exploring them, if not much of the reason why the experiments happened. That would be explained later, after he was certain that Helen was well on board with the idea of Light and Darkness. Admittedly, it wasn't anything particularly difficult to understand but he was certain that there would be questions on some detail or another all the same.
