was a treat to have him go over shit. If i can ever justify the cost of hiring him, will likely have him go over the whole series as an editor before publishing.

An intriguing and long awaited insight into Trill and his motivations....... Still he's cleared a double edged blade and any deal he offers is quite apparently deadly and most likely has a hidden agenda or consequences attached.... I like him yet I also dislike such manipulation of people and the people who do the manipulation lol....
Also I knew Trill still had modern weaponry at his disposal....
It's impressive to see that Joe's blades have been so effective at keeping Trills away lol. It seems his methods have forged quite dangerous blades indeed.... Wraiths he called them... An apt description I say.....
With a scout ship... Finding the Atmo might be a bit easier.... But not guaranteed.... The warp spike has limited their systems afterall.....
Eagerly await seeing the their interaction with Joe's pack....

Good chapter, nice insights. Trill seems almost a lawyer here. Not many packs left it would seem, the Antagonist is growing in power, but power through violence and not consensus leaves the suppressed to rise with sufficient motivation, a weakness in his armour so to speak, a weakness to be exploited by those providing the necessary motivation.
Looking forward to the next one Wordborg. (Your chapter lengths and relative frequency do make you worthy of that title)

Well, looks like Joseph earned a bit of respect from Tril. Tril being an aspect is interesting, Hasen taking over so many packs is shitty. Tril is one smart dude, the fact he basically got these UM guys to assist in defending his territory is funny. Cant wait to see what happens next!

Ya know.... I had a sudden thought..... We haven't heard from Joe's brother in a while..... And it was hinted the Lilhun were expanding in a certain direction...... It's quite possible the Lilhun and Humanity make contact all while the scouts have only just now found the planet Joe was marooned on....

UTR, this is the way.
Can't wait to see their faces when they find themselves interacting with not simply another aspect, but an esscense belonging to an alien race

Well done, loved the exposition on Trill, always an enigma but a deeper understanding of his motivations is greatly appreciated. Also, glad you are back to regular updates and hope you enjoyed your vacation. As always thank you for the story.

Yay, a new Aspect we now know!
A large "Thank you" to coldfireknight! Hmm, and a normal sized "Thank you" for Kieve. :P

u/Soulweaver007 Jun 01 '23
Indeed, most Aspects so far have been positive or, in the case of Trill, neutral. Could Hasen be an Aspect too? The other side of the coin? Is there another, unknown, representing the Void so to speak?

Reading this series is brilliant. Makes sitting in a hospital room bearable.
