Alice Grove MCDLT - June 2017
Method of Madness:
Strange that Gavia is still so loyal to the Praeses, considering they abandoned her.
brasca:
Probably deep denial, but if the Praeses have been listening this whole time they cannot question her loyalty.
Morituri:
Pretty sure the Praeses don't give a rat's ass about Gavia's loyalty.
Neko_Ali:
It might not be loyalty to the Praeses but not wanting to sacrifice all the people in the habitats that they apparently are.

--- Quote from: derech on 06 Jun 2017, 10:46 --- However it's counted for these six now, it seems like it's building up to some confrontation with one or more groups and others, perhaps a revealing of plans, maybe a bigger picture. Yet and still. Such as The Nightwalker's actions could have little to no larger meaning. It might be The Praeses have not directly orchestrated most any of this.

I agree. There's way too much going on here to wrap things up anytime soon. The Nightwalker had a purpose, and it (I hope) was not related to the Praesides. The Praesides have a purpose, and I don't think they were the ones who made the AIs disappear.
And it seems to me that Church could be convinced to follow Gavia instead of Pate, considering that she's obviously tougher and more ruthless than he is. But Gavia's motivations, as ruthlessly as she follows them, are very conservative. It's not a good ending.
We need to find out the Blinker and whoever the Nightwalker signalled (maybe the same guy) and it's not the Praesides.

We've only seen a glimpse of what Pate is capable of so I doubt Gavia is more ruthless than he is, however, Church could abandon him if he perceives Pate as serving only his own interests instead of humanity's. Gavia has demonstrated a willingness to sacrifice her life to save her leaders and to an extension her people so Church might just change his allegiance if he perceives her as a strong leader who serves the greater good.

We don't know that for a fact, but will probably find out when chapter 7 begins. While it seems like they have used Ardent and Gavia as pawns in some elaborate scheme it's possible that another player, possibly the AIs have been working behind the scenes all this time.

She said she was willing to sacrifice everyone if she thought Pate was a threat to the Praeses so unless all of her people are some kind of collective she's protecting her leaders.
