On the quick page post, it actually follows the pattern, takes a (often long)while to get the new 3d scene made and then a bunch of pages featuring that scene in rather rapid succession....and then back to waiting for the next 3d scene to be finished, so we will probably enjoy a new page every two weeks or so for the next couple of months.

Also Ashrain is the only ship commander beside Stillstorm that are mentioned there. Why is that and why does she alone wear an amplifier on her head? My guess she are not done with this story yet.
Ashrain is related to the Emperor and is likely to be important to the story later.

It's also possible that Beryl's expression is due to what she was about to say. Saying something like that in earshot of Tempo would likely be a faux pas, regardless of whether or not Tempo is in Stillstorm's good graces.

hi hi

It might also be that Tempo wants to be the one to expose Alex as an Umiak infiltrator, preferably in front of as large an audience as possible, to maximize the effect of discrediting the idea that Loroi are somehow not truly the inheritors of the Soia legacy. :P

Thinking of it as a faux pas may be projecting human decorum onto her. Sanzai is characterized by brutal honesty, not holding back what one thinks. I think Beryl is just directly expressing the truth of her feelings without deception or reservation. Though she may have just been admonished by Tempo for it as she entered. 'Leave the talking to those better suited for it.'

Kinda rough having to deal with a race that can think at each other. Can't be sure what you aren't seeing.

hehe I love this . . . tempo is also getting out of firestorm way too. Plus this little trip will provide more opportunities for tempo to learn about humanity and what they may offer to the Loroi.

Well... hopefully Beryl won't be thrown off-kiltered by having Tempo as an additional part of Alec's entourage of escorts ..

Maybe they can double-team him and get him to chat up a storm about the humanti and if they have any legends or histories that might reveal how they became 'stuck' in that neck of the galaxy

It would be pretty disappointing to have Tempo show up and probably take away all of your conversation time with a friendly alien. It's a long trip... who are you going to talk to - Fireblade? Tragic!

Oh i bet fireball is awesome with Sanzai. in words not so much. Oh sure she I probably a strict military discipline, but those kind can also be the funest when not on duty.

hi hi

One wonders just what exactly Fireblade would sanzai about. ((Is sanzai a verb? Can you sanzai about something?))

I could imagine a conversation going like this:

Beryl: "Fireblade, it is good to see you."

Fireblade: "Whether we see each other or not makes no difference in the cosmic scheme of things. We are all but motes of dust caught in an uncaring sea of time and space."

Beryl: "Ookay. I'm just going to do some science over here."

:P

Sounds legit to me. It does sound better than sanzais. :geek: :P

Sigh... I guess beryl just lost her long awaited chance to have a non-monitored and open-minded discussion about humaniti with alex.

She will have that discussion, she will just have to make sure that Tempo isn't around. Who knows, perhaps she will sneak into Alex's room after hours for some heart to heart :P
