I was also surprised that the amplifiers turned to dust in their recent experiment. If I read it correctly, it sounds like that is not a common occurrence for the loroi. On a separate note, I cannot help but suspect that the Umiak perhaps don't have a lotai as the humans do. But rather have developed something that cause a form of disruption for the Farseeing amplifiers.
Imagine the loroi forced to face their own flaws and the possibility of their ancestors misdeeds. I truly wonder if the loroi, both in this fanfic and in the Outsider comic, can accept shame as a proud warrior culture. I remember a similar reference to 'dragons' in the fanfic, "Beacons". A mere coincidence perhaps?
Who knows? There will be those for it and against it for sure... revealing the truth.
I was raised up in a religion that taught that they had a monopoly on truth. Yet paradoxically admits they have made mistaken predictions.
Despite this, many inside it are unaware of just how many and exactly what they predicted wrong because the organization is intentionally both brief and vague when it speaks of it's past mistakes to active members.
What I am suggesting is that being aware of previous failures does not mean the powers that be will make it readily well known to all.
In fact often the only ones that will even try to make the truth readily and clearly known are those that oppose or are critical of the powers that be.
