Secession, Chapter 7 [Spoilers]

Great speech!

The Parri continue to offer a hint at what the Generations might be truly capable of achieving. With Jason's random thought a couple of chapters ago about manipulating space and the way the shaman reached into the tree to collect the plaque, there is something there just beyond what we've seen that Jason could be capable of. Not forgetting the way the Parri know things. I wonder how aware the oye trees are.

I'm wondering what would happen if one of the Karinne ships let loose its shockwave generator near the exit of the incoming wormhole. Plus if this Consortium wormhole works then that would imply that Wormhole Drives [or catapults] are possible, even if there is a 50/50 chance of failure. If wormholes are more stable over a greater distance, as we see with the stargates, then this would be a possible method for reaching Andromeda in less than five years, assuming the energy required is not prohibitive.

Do we know if the moon will actually be destroyed? They will have to reinforce the moon to make sure all their ships get through. Once the enemy is gone, it could get refitted with imperial wormhole tech, so make it capable of allowing extra galactic travel.
I wonder if the cancer is the kimdori adaptions to make him more powerful? So he can wield shaman powers, will he be able to fight the energy being while in communion.

Cybi has a form of telekinesis, can people with mind jack be able to use that form of talent? is their tech safe from being messed with by the consortium?

SAy the kimdori get to another galaxcy, could they locate a radiation filled system to hide a star gate? or make a secret moon wormhole generator.
so the nebula will be made into a karrine stronghold.

I do wonder if they can aim the wormhole generator....could they use it as a weapon? What would happen if the wormhole appeared inside Kosigi....Or if it's so unstable...Karis?

Interesting question / Idea but i don't think it'll happen plus it's not the Event horizon that will be at this end
so I don't think it could do any real damage.

It's Using it like a Cannon the Cannon it's self is pretty harmless but the cannon balls comming out of it....humm

You have to remember they seem to want Cybi some what intact destroying or blowing up Karis or even Kosigi.
Might just damnage Cybi and make all those plans mute.

THey could partially stabilise the wormhole, giving them a point to target the weapons. If they fix it, could they make the wormhole journey much rougher on the ships. If they appear trapped in hyper locked space, then the karrines could jump back and forth really messing with them.

Hmmm a thought are they sure they are going open it to Karrines Space why not open it to in Andromeda Galaxy link it to a another Wormhole generator to make it more stable.

No. It looks like there'll be two more.

If things work the way I think they will.

Hmm, Fel, I may have forgotten... what will be the title for the next book after Secession... :D Will start to have lots of thoughts just by the Title. :)

Still have the fight against the Syndicates. Will it be different? Still guerilla warfare.

Conceptualization - The concept to defeat the Syndicatium

Contraction - Thinking big but finally a small simple solution. Some old tech like just putting rocks in space and hyperspace in the interdicted field and then the whole jing gang in the galaxy contracts.

Conquerism - The Karinnes finally conquer the Consortium and the Syndicatium in the name of Generations and share the gains and benefit with the Imperium and the Confederations. OMG what is it with all the titles. :)

Clearly the next book about fighting the Syndicate has to be titled Syndication. Jason can be joined by the cast of Charles in Charge, CHIPS, and other old TV shows. Most of the actors are now just heads in jars, however. This will be followed by Cancellation, where all the actors, except Kenny, are killed in a huge black hole that destroys all the Syndicate worlds leaving the Parri as the only vendors of oye juice. It has all been about the spice, I mean juice. He who controls the juice, controls the universe. Lastly, there will be Revisionism, where it turns out all the be a bead dream by Bobby Ewing, except he is now blue and a woman. With just combat boots on.

No - Fel already stated that will not happen, The marriage goes forward, the guards stay. Fel stated that even if the marriage didn't go forward the guards would stay.
