Last Notes npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion âYale study now confirms that COVID vaccines lower white blood cell count that specifically protects you from cancerâ Iâm just saying that The T cells which specifically protect you from cancer, were actually higher in the individuals suffering from PVS The T cells which can specialize into a number of different things for different purposes, one of them being to also fight cancer, among other purposes include autoimmune regulation, bacterial infections, virus infections, parasites infections, etc., were higher in the group without PVS. The fact that the immune system is complex and redundant is not a surprise to me. I donât think I have seen evidence in the article you posted to say the people who were suffering from PVS had a reduced ability to fight cancer. At best itâs a mixed bag of effects. With inconclusive outcomes to what their impact would be. And this was only measured in the population suffering from PVS it wasnât measured on the general population that took the vaccine so saying the Covid vaccines cause the lowering of of white blood cells is too strong for the evidence in this article IMO. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion The PVS group had lower CD4+ T cells which differentiate into several different kinds of cells which do a number of things according to chat GPT. My hunch is that PVS is a form of autoimmune disease caused by the immune system reacting to the spike protein in these cases caused by the vaccine. The symptoms being so close to âlong COVIDâ my hunch is that âlong COVIDâ is an autoimmune disease caused by the bodies immune response to the spike protein, in this case caused by the virus. But these are just my guesses. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion This posted article says those people who expierenced PVS (post vaccine syndrome) had higher levels of TNF-alpha+ CD8 T cells, which are the ones that fight cancer compared to the control. The controls had higher âFrom participantsâ blood samples, the researchers looked for immune features that were different between the two groups. They found several differences in immune cell populations; those with PVS had lower levels of effector CD4+ T cells and higher levels of TNF-alpha+ CD8 T cells â both are types of white blood cells â among other differences.â npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion 1) The TSA is about 20 years old, eliminating them only means going back about 20 years. They didnât need your chat history or biometrics 25 years ago they donât need it now. 2) No data besides biometrics are required to authenticate the person is who they say they are from your list. If thatâs your approach. From there itâs a bag screening. Chat history and other data you are supposing they would try to collect for ârisk of bringing a bomb on a flightâ without screening every bag is, not going to work, it wouldnât work now if they tried it with the TSA. 3) most of the The things people dislike from the TSA are things that airport security in the rest of the world doesnât do. Leave your belt on, shoes on, etc, not be microwave scanned, etc itâs just an unnecessary level in the rest of the world, so probably an unnecessary degree for us too. Reverting to private security back to 1999 or modern UK/ France is achievable now without algorithms or pervasive data gathering. If you are going to screen every bag, and you will, then you donât actually need to know anything about the passenger before the screening, you just need to go through their stuff (Xray, bomb dogs etc) npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Itâs like voting for the direction of the tides.https://media.tenor.com/AUd0kw-R2ZQAAAAC/avi-lpue.gif npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion https://media.tenor.com/gEdsq9EM5RwAAAAC/its-still-pretty-damn-good-william-newberry.gif npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion And how it turned out. #foodstr #grownostr https://image.nostr.build/265ea48bd972bc72d9d64dce0c5f769655592acac3518b228d7d1858f5264b72.jpg #nevent1qâŚkg0v npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion There is only one kind. đ𤣠#fishing #grownostr https://image.nostr.build/898da75495472d0b5512e55cdff608e27f94d5b9150da31636258816c0d2783b.jpg npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion My guess would be that labs would measure volume of the original sample, then use something like a centrifuge to isolate and concentrate the swimmers. Then sample the concentration and dilute it with a specific volume of fluid, to decrease the density to something that is finitely countable. Then count, and multiply by the appropriate volumes to get to a count that is average per ml of the sample. https://media.tenor.com/k6Bjyaob7pQAAAAC/expert-im-no-expert.gif npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion I have not seen any reputable data that ivermectin reduces fertility, that being said, the fact that you have some swimmers under a scope doesnât mean anything.

If it was the spike protein, how do you differentiate the problems caused by a synthetically generated spike protein and the one on the actual virus in terms of toxicity. One is a measured dose probably larger than an initial infection of Covid, maybe? but , the other is on a virus which replicates exponentially in the body and the initial dose is variable. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Merry Christmas! npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion He should have used Preparation H https://media.tenor.com/m1rVxyHY2-gAAAAC/bryan-cranston-preparation-h.gif npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Mission accomplished #merrychristmas #grownostr https://image.nostr.build/7b5ef8a6b1c8c8efdf15db387fddd2402c0bceeea5f7fb921642d10c1d2e8ee7.jpg npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion A few different things npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Hmm đ¤ this feels ripe for someone to really disrupt from the other disciplines.

I was hoping you would as I thought it would help you see my point. Germany has a 10% Tariff on US cars. We have a 2.5% Tariff on German cars and 25% Tariff on German trucks. Germany has a 5% Tariff on US Steel, We have a 20% Tariff on German Steel. Iâm sure there are other product categories with differential tarrifs. Reflect on this and our discussion. You may yet be able to escape the cognitive dissonance. Good day sir. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Iâm not your personal assistant. You can dig that up yourself if you want to discuss it. But when a country imposes a tariff on a product of ours like cars, we donât impose an identical magnitude tariff on an identical product from them. We retaliate with a tariff on a product that will do similar damage or protection. Since the countries specialize in different things an identical tariff wonât have the intended effect you want to have if you are trying to retaliate. Instead we have to retaliate with a tariff on that countries steel or agriculture or chip manufacturing. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Threats of violence are used for bargaining and leverage. You are assuming like a good libtard that the other party involved, (Russia) wonât fold to US demands. I think the above argument is dumb. I think it remains dumb when you replace violence with tarrifs and replace Russia with Russia or China or Mexico or Canada. Itâs dumb because if you are unwilling to do the thing you are threatening then you donât have a credible threat. So if they donât capitulate then you are locked into proceeding with your threat or else loose credibility. And itâs easy to find yourself threatening what you never intended to carry out and get yourself trapped into harming yourself with tarrifs that you never wanted. I would be fine with tarrifs in so far as they would be aligned to a consumption tax regime. But as you said tarrifs are being used as leverage here and if we miscalculate and the other party doesnât budge, or reciprocates, it starts a trade war of increasing tarrifs in a tit for tat manner just like military action does. And ultimately they move in the same direction, you donât go to war with a trade partner, you end trade first and when there is no more trade to eliminate then you go to war. I would rather leave mutually beneficial trade on the table rather than walk in the direction of war (For China, Russia, or any other Nation) without a real threat to ourselves. âLook at all the countries that have tarrifs on the US, why is it ok when they do it but not ok when the US does it back?â There are already reciprocal tariffs inplace between us and those countries. This is a threat to increase. And just like in war an escalation can lead to either capitulation from the other side or reciprocal escalation. Reciprocal escalation leaves the populations of both countries poorer for each round of tariffs as the prices rise. The caution against tariffs isnât because I donât think there isnât a chance they will work, itâs that there is a chance they wonât and then we are locked into the absurd threat by politicians in either country unwilling to backdown and look weak. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion That context makes sense with their use to fit specific challenges of fertility. I was looking at them from within Europe and Ireland as thatâs a better analog for me. But the fact they were used so broadly would suggest they may be broadly successful. Or if you have experience that would suggest this to not be the case I would be very interested to avoid pitfalls. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion I was looking at their designs and uses, who used them, what regions, looking to see if they would be practical for me. I may try them at some point. I have no practical experience. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion @npub1n0sâŚk6h0 Changing the font size in the settings of the phone appears to not affect the font of posts that have already been loaded?

At 500W (499) I get about 81 watts per TH/s and at 300W (306) I get about 92 watts per TH/s. You mean you want to be able to go from 750W to 500W to 300W without the boards dropping their Hash rates to zero before ramping up again? Or something else? âStart from scratchâ I just assumed this was a procedure to not burn up the ASICs by 1) stopping hashing, 2) run fans at full speed, 3) set fans according to configuration, 4) then ramp ASICs to Energy consumption configurations, 5) monitor temperature as the ASIC ramps. If you mean they should be able to overclock and underclock without needing to âtuneâ to learn the stable set points I guess I donât know enough to have an opinion. Once the set points are âlearnedâ you can bounce between them without âtuningâ with only the procedure above between the set points. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Do you have the same opinion on threats of violence as you do on threats of tariffs? They would both be leverage in action. Itâs not the case for example that they are only idle threats, tariffs were levied by Trump, and they were kept in place by Biden. Tariffs reduce trade. Iâm concerned about the tit for tat growing beyond what individual actors wanted. Iâm concerned about the costs of untangling economies. Iâm concerned about the costs of permanently not taking advantage of the trade surpluses both countries get when they trade voluntarily, taking advantage of the differences in skills, labor, and capital to allow specialization. Iâm concerned that tariffs will make everything more expensive fundamentally because itâs going to be made in places with higher costs to produce the same thing without an increase in quality. This isnât inflation in the sense of the money supply, itâs restructuring the fundamental way things are produced and where they are produced. Iâm concerned if you donât trade with your enemies you take one stop out of the road to war with your enemies. Iâm concerned if you donât trade with your allies, they will seek trade agreements with your enemies. Iâm not a member of the left. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Crap in what sense, yes the hash rates are lower. But the energy consumption per TH/s may not be optimal at the highest hash rate either. In practice the big challenge that I have seen with s9 is that you want to make sure you arenât just mining dust that will be lost to expensive utxos or never make it out of the pool due to payout thresholds. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion I went deep into dovecoats a few weeks back. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion You only need to âbreak the planeâ. Since 1889. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion I agree with many of the points. It might be interesting to consider the perverse things done to money directly, creating more of it without the good to society that is supposed to be required for money to be compensated, (inflation) and compare it to other perversions of that social utility like theft and fraud and other examples where there is a conceptual break between when a person gets a lot of money but didnât âproperlyâ earn it. how that too undermines the value in the system. Or what are the limits to this? npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Isnât this always constantly happening? npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion OPEC is a cartel that sets the agreed quantities pumped from each country that is a member of OPEC. The US is not a member of OPEC. We can choose to pump any amount we wish, we pump based on price. And Saudi + others oil is cheaper to pump and process than US oil. OPEC tries to restrict the amount pumped from OPEC members but members can âcheatâ and break their commitments. Overall OPEC chooses a quantity of oil production that they believe will maximize their profits while not being so high as to not incentivize production in other countries for example the US. The âbackyardâ oil pumps and others kick in when the price gets high enough to justify the cost. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Is it better or worse than when they show crazy graphical visuals playing on their screens https://media.tenor.com/9Z4aF3ksVH0AAAAC/joey-gibson.gif npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion https://image.nostr.build/2a97828483223e4898d784e9efc963e55cb078730cf5001ceb6229c51e3f1063.jpg npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion GM npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Looks like lungs, cool npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Gm npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion 6.

My understanding of things like âchipotle pointsâ is that what they are giving away is more of the thing they make. So from the consumers perspective I get an 8 dollar burrito but from chipotleâs perspective I gave away 3 dollars of ingredients and 1 dollars of employee time. So there is an asymmetrical benefit which incentivizes the company to redeem. Here is my pitch I think it works but itâs not going to make the accountant happy: Give people the option of receiving a portion of their payroll in sats As an option No KYC Bitcoin. If No KYC Bitcoin has a higher utility than KYC Bitcoin, then employees would be willing to accept an exchange rate for their portion of salaries in fiat that aligned with slightly better than what the No KYC markets provide in terms of trading fiat to btc. Next accept bitcoin as method of payment. Sourcing your own sats from customers, Use lightning which has lower fees than credit cards so you can sell your goods or services at the same price or cheaper to compensate for fees? but have a lower cost of acceptance. So on the seller side you are keeping more of the value from sales, and on the employer side they are getting lower costs because people are taking a small haircut on a portion of their pay inorder for it to be No KYC, and you are supplying your own NoKYC btc via the clients paying in BTC so you donât have to face the No KYC market rates. I think this makes sense, but I admit Iâm dosing off as I try to finish the post. Good luck. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Thanks for pointing out the book, I havenât read it but recently came to the evidence of this as a fact, no doubt a derivative of his book.

They had carved out a pitiful existence in the void, drifting from star to star in a decaying fleet. Over generations, the story of their homeworld faded into obscurity, becoming nothing more than a whispered legend. The Brelkani of the present were a shadow of their ancestors, their translucent skin now thin as paper, their eyes dull and sunken. They lived on scraps, salvaging what they could from their dying ships. Life in the fleet was one of misery and desperation. But rumors of the lost world persisted. âThe Sea of Light,â they called it, a mythical paradise where their kind once thrived. To some, it was a place of salvation; to others, it was nothing more than a fable. One ship, the Pioneerâs Ghost, had become obsessed with finding it. Its captain, Alren, was a brash young leader with a fire in his heart. âIf thereâs even a chance Vynar exists,â he told his crew, âwe owe it to ourselves to try. Out here, weâre already dead.â His crew, though skeptical, shared his hunger for hope. They scoured ancient records, piecing together fragments of data, coordinates buried in corrupted archives. When they finally pinpointed a location, the excitement was electric. The Pioneerâs Ghost set course for the rumored coordinates. As they approached, the crew gathered at the observation deck, eager for a glimpse of what might await them. When Vynar appeared, there was a collective gasp. The planet was breathtaking. Its coral forests towered higher than any structure they had ever seen. The oceans glowed brighter than the old tales had described, and the skies were alive with vibrant auroras. âItâs real,â Alren whispered, tears streaming down his face. âWeâve found it.â But something was wrong. The scanners picked up strange fluctuations in the atmosphereâdense clouds of spores swirling like storm systems. The air seemed alive, pulsing in rhythmic waves. âThe readings are unstable,â warned Aril, the shipâs biologist. âThe ecosystem⌠itâs unlike anything Iâve seen. Itâs as if the planet itself is reacting to us.â Alren waved her off. âWeâve come too far to turn back. Prepare for descent.â The Pioneerâs Ghost entered the atmosphere. Almost immediately, the ship began to shudder violently. Alren gripped the controls as alarms blared. âItâs the spores!â Aril shouted. âTheyâre interacting with the shipâs systemsâbreaking them down!â Tendrils of glowing mist seeped into the hull, corroding metal and electronics. The ship spiraled out of control, crashing into one of the towering coral forests. The survivors, battered and broken, emerged into the strange, vibrant world. The air was thick with bioluminescent spores, which clung to their skin and burned like acid. The coral structures swayed as if alive, their tendrils reaching out toward the intruders. âThis⌠this isnât our home,â Aril gasped, her voice filled with horror. âNot anymore.â Alren, clutching a broken arm, stared at the glowing sea. âNo. Itâs ours. We belong here.â He stumbled forward, his steps growing slower as the spores consumed him. The coral trembled, and the tendrils closed in. One by one, the crew succumbedâdissolved, consumed by the very world they had sought to reclaim. As the last of the Brelkani fell, the planet seemed to exhale, its vibrant colors intensifying. The ecosystem continued its dance, unbothered by the fleeting presence of its former inhabitants. The Pioneerâs Ghost was swallowed by the coral forest, leaving no trace of its arrival. Above, the auroras shimmered in quiet defiance, as if to say: You were never meant to return. And Vynar, alive and whole, carried on, untouched by the brief, desperate lives of the species that had once called it home. npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Act II: The Fractured Journey The colony ships glided through the endless dark, their engines powered by a miracle fuel extracted from the glowing seas of Vynar. Onboard, the Brelkani adapted as best they could to life among the stars. Artificial coral groves provided shade and filtered recycled air, while nutrient paste kept their fragile bodies alive. Mirka, now a symbol of their exodus, spent her days overseeing ship operations. The destination was Lorith-5, a distant exoplanet identified as habitable centuries ago. But the journey was long, and the strain on the Brelkani began to show. Their pale skin grew thinner, their movements slower. The artificial environment could not replicate the intricate balance of their home. Karyon, now the lead biologist aboard the flagship Radiance, became increasingly concerned. âThe nutrient paste is failing,â he reported to Mirka during a tense meeting. âThe synthetic compounds lack key trace elements that Vynarâs ecosystem provided. Without them, our bodies are degrading.â Mirka frowned, her once radiant face now gaunt. âThen weâll adapt,â she said. âWeâve always been adaptable.â Karyonâs voice grew sharper. âAdapting takes generations, Mirka. We donât have that kind of time.â The strain of survival fractured the fleet. Some ships, desperate to replenish supplies, began to scavenge from one another. This cannibalism of resources sowed mistrust among the crews. Onboard the Radiance, Mirka struggled to maintain unity. One day, an urgent alert sounded across the fleet. A derelict alien ship, enormous and ancient, was detected drifting nearby. Hope surged through the Brelkani: perhaps it contained resources or technology they could use. Mirka authorized an expedition. A small team, including Karyon, boarded the alien vessel. The air inside was stale, but breathable. The shipâs architecture was eerily familiarâsweeping curves and organic designs reminiscent of Vynarâs coral forests. âThis⌠isnât just any alien ship,â Karyon whispered as he examined the walls. âIt looks like it was made by beings like us.â Mirka, watching the expedition feed from the safety of the Radiance, dismissed the idea. âCoincidence,â she said. âFocus on finding supplies.â The team ventured deeper into the ship, finding chambers filled with desiccated remains. The skeletal figures bore striking similarities to the Brelkani, their translucent skin stretched tight over fragile bones. Karyonâs unease deepened. He discovered ancient records, holographic archives documenting the shipâs history. The beings who had built it were, in fact, an ancient offshoot of the Brelkani species. They had fled Vynar millennia earlier, seeking to escape the planetâs dangers. But they, too, had overconsumed their resources and been forced to the stars. The holograms revealed their fate: the beings had exhausted their supplies, unable to adapt to life away from Vynar. They had perished, their ship adrift in the void. Karyon returned to the Radiance, shaken. âThis is a warning,â he told Mirka. âWeâve done this before. And it didnât work.â Mirka refused to believe it. âWe are different,â she said. âWe have the fleet. We have Lorith-5. We will survive.â But Karyon wasnât convinced. As he delved deeper into the records, he found another revelation: the fuel powering their ships wasnât just a resource. It was alive. The glowing seas of Vynar had been sentient, a symbiotic entity sustaining the planetâs ecosystem and the Brelkani themselves. By draining the oceans, they had not just destroyed their world but severed a lifeline they hadnât understood. âWeâve not just left Vynar,â Karyon said to Mirka in their private quarters. âWeâve killed the very thing that made our existence possible.â Mirka, her determination faltering, whispered, âThen what are we now?â Karyonâs response was grim. âDead. We just havenât realized it yet.â End of Act II npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion Act I: The Skyward Ambition The planet Vynar was a paradise of fragility. Its skies shimmered with auroras from constant solar bombardment, and its oceans teemed with bioluminescent life. But the Brelkani, its dominant species, lived on a knifeâs edge. Their pale, translucent skin burned under even the faintest sunlight, forcing them to shelter beneath towering coral-like structures that filtered the light. Their lifespans were short, averaging only 20 years. Despite their vulnerability, the Brelkani were dreamers. Their minds were sharp, and their ingenuity unmatched. For centuries, their philosophers and engineers spoke of one ambition: to leave Vynar and colonize other planets. They believed their survival depended on escaping their fragile world, as its ecosystem teetered under the weight of overpopulation and resource depletion. Councilor Mirka, the youngest member of the planetary council at 14 years old, was the voice of the new generation. âOur home is dying,â she declared during a meeting of the council, her voice clear and unyielding. âThe time has come for us to move beyond Vynar, or our species will perish.â Her words resonated, and the council approved the âSkyward Projectââa daring initiative to construct massive colony ships capable of reaching distant worlds. The Brelkani had no time for caution or ethical dilemmas. They scoured Vynar for every scrap of rare mineral, every ounce of energy. Coral forests were razed, the luminous oceans were drained of their glow as their ecosystems collapsed. The planet bled, but the ships rose. Among the architects of this endeavor was Karyon, a biologist who had long warned against such reckless consumption. âWe are destroying the very world that sustains us,â he pleaded to Mirka one evening as they stood in the shadow of the first completed colony ship. âThe world that was sustaining us,â Mirka corrected, her eyes alight with resolve. âSoon, weâll have no need for it. We can rebuild elsewhere.â Karyon shook his head. âElsewhere might not exist. And if it does, it might not want us there.â But the momentum of the Skyward Project was unstoppable. Within months, the first wave of ships was ready. As the launch day arrived, the planet was unrecognizable. Vast swathes of its coral canopy had been reduced to skeletal remains, and the oceans were drained of their radiance. The skies, once alive with auroras, now swirled with ash from industrial furnaces. The Brelkani watched the departure in silence, their frail bodies huddled under the last remnants of coral shade. Karyon, with a heavy heart, boarded the lead ship alongside Mirka. The engines roared to life, and the planetâs surface was bathed in firelight as the ships ascended into the cosmos. As Vynar shrank into the void, Mirka stood at the observation deck, a triumphant smile on her face. âWeâve done it,â she whispered. But Karyonâs gaze lingered on their homeworld. âWeâve left it behind,â he murmured. âAnd something tells me it isnât finished with us yet.â End of Act I npub1pncg62q25h704u6qcf56hnmxx46jdlwfpw2t860ld5685s0sjzms9rqlgr DefiantDandelion It has been intermittent and I was able to zap 5 notes in a row just now so I canât presently reproduce.
