Alice Grove MCDLT - April 2016
Zebediah:
You know what this means, don't you?
(click to show/hide)This means war!
The Night Walker just declared war on someone in a most dramatic fashion. I fear Alice may have no choice but to become a weapon again. Ditto Sedna. It remains to be seen if they will fight for the same side.
Method of Madness:
Why couldn't the week break happen when I was away for a week? :P
Kugai:
It definitely looks like Gavia has been stripped of her Nanotech. That's gonna change things for her if that's the case and life is gonna get a wee bit harder for her now.
That hit on the Moon was specifically targeted. It's gonna be interesting to see what TNW hit before it dissapated and what effect that is going ot have on our heroes (and heroines) lives from this moment on
And it begs the question, was this the exact reason the Preaeses dumped both Ardent and Gavia on Earth?
jheartney:
We're guessing Gavia's nanotech is gone, but what about Ardent's? Supposedly it's a payload of nanmachines that upgrade appropriate tech on contact, right? Why didn't the Walker go for Ardent too?
For the hit zone on the Moon to be visible to the naked eye, it must be quite large. Tens, if not hundreds of miles across. Even assuming total conversion of mass to energy, Gavia's nanotech wouldn't create enough energy to hit that hard. So where did all the energy come from?
Did the Walker dissipate permanently, or did its constituents just de-combine till needed again? If the Walker's purpose is a one-time use against invading nantech, how did its makers know the Vicissitudes woould be visiting thousands of years later? Why convert to a bird before doing its thing?
Zebediah:
As I said, my guess is that the Praeses intended for the Night Walker to eat Gavia's nanos and start a war. And I'm betting that Ardent's nanos are designed to help the other side.
Why help both sides? So that the Praeses can sit back and keep their hands (limbs? leaves? twigs?) clean while others do the dirty work. "Oh look! Our two worst enemies are destroying each other! How terrible!"
