Re: Conviction chapter 13

I thought it had been fairly clear for a while that the Parri might well not have been the only sentient species on their planet.... I think here it is a matter of the degree of intelligence that the oye trees might have. They are certainly demonstrably sentient from their shown interactions with J...

Re: Conviction chapter 13

Yes. I think that this has been speculated on a little before, at least that the oye trees help in some way. Over the last day or so I've kept coming back to the idea of the parallels between the Parri and the oye trees and the Old Karinnes and the CBIMs. As if they very much have built/established ...

Re: Conviction chapter 13

One thing I've suspected about the oye trees from the beginning is that they are doing something very similar to the Kimdori and the CBIMs by preserving useful knowledge and insights from those under their protection.

Re: Conviction chapter 13

The Parri had those oye trees planted at Jason's house and in front of the CBIM facilities for a REASON. You mean other than to provide a nice snack in a shady place? :roll: What kind of hint is that? The red herring here is the singular "reason". I think it's clear they have a number of ...

Re: Conviction chapter 13

I am surprised that the systems around the oracle child weren't fail-deadly. Cutting power and control should be enough to tell the kill devices to activate. Well it's easy to overlook such a thing when from the Benga point of view. In order to capture the Oracle, first you have to reach, land and ...

Re: Conviction Chapter 9 [Spoilers]

Wasn't there a comment in one of the earlier stories that some of the MW galaxy races already have very rare precognitive individuals? But that the ability drives the person insane? I believe that in one of the previous discussions Fel confirmed that Faey have precogs but that it was rare. I don't ...

Re: Conviction, Chapter 8 (spoilers)

would something like a hyperspace submarine be technologically feasible? We discussed a similar idea to this concept when the Karinnes were trying to combine the hyperlight drive and hyperspace engines. The main problem seems to be that they have no way to change velocity in hyperspace. There is a ...

Re: Conviction, Chapter 8 (spoilers)

so the Syndicate must know this as well. Must they? This is up for debate right now: I'm pretty sure that the syndicate communications to Oasis is being jammed. I'm more concerned about the how some of the weaker members of the CCM feel. They can barely stand against the Syndicate battleships and n...

Re: Conviction, Chapter 8 (spoilers)

This was a great chapter. I loved the description of the battle and the crazy exploding super-ships. I was a little surprised at how well everything was going until Jason read the reports from the other groups. At least now we know how well their assets stack up against each other. The numbers that ...
