Comic Discussion > ALICE GROVE
Alice Grove MCDLT - April 2017
Is it cold in here?:
Is Alice expecting the Praeses to intervene?
Otherwise, she knows that she and Sedna together are no match for Church, and that Gavia can't make a dent in an Alice-class entity (see her first appearance for what happened when she tried).
So the possibilities are that Alice has sized up Gavia's rebooted abilities and thinks they are a game changer, or she expects the Praeses Public Peacekeeping Patrol to weigh in on her side, or she's desperate.
A desperate Alice strikes me as something I would not want on my world line.

That was Gavia pre-enhancement. Like I said before, who knows how powerful Gavia is?

I don't think Gavia is that much powerful than before, but she's provided a distraction that took both Pate and Church by surprise. It's not enough and from the look of it Alice can move in space so I'll assume Church can too which is why she's attacking him. She doesn't stand a chance, but she doesn't need to engage him for long. She's succeeded in separating Church from Pate so now Sedna can capture him. Once she does he'll order Church to stand down and the battle is won.
Samik:
What brasca said.
For whatever reason, Church's prime directive is to protect Pate. If they actually have the ability to move in vacuum effectively, then there are three parties present now (Alice, Sedna, and Gavia), who could kill Pate with a single move (and Gavia has range).
If they are willing to use the threat of harming Pate as leverage, then Church is going to have to pull an absolute rabbit out of his keister to keep control of the situation.
They don't necessarily need to "defeat" him, per se. But, this is as clear a shot as they're going to get to effect a power shift.

I thought nowadays that reads "in cyberspace you can hear everybody groan".

This. Is a very possible course of events! A one-armed Sedna is still a lethal threat to Pate. Ignoring Gavia for now - possibly errorneously.
