[@alexs5814]

ah yes... the ultimate "betrayal"... how unexpected. great reading, thank you!

[@yomogami4561]

yep. empires really shouldn't rely on mercs thanks for the story and narration

[@donaldscholand4617]

Sounds like the Romans arming and training the Visigoths to fight their wars for them. That didn't end well for the Romans.

[@truekurayami]

In both stories, the empires fell because of their arrogance and ignorance.

[@matthiuskoenig3378]

It ended fairly well for the Romans as a whole just not the roman elite. The goths gave the roman plebs better living conditions

[@jayoballes3547]

Also reminds me of Jannisaries and the Ottoman Empire.

[@barelyasurvivor1257]

It did until they went back on their promises to them. Always abide by your Merc contract

[@morgankuikka4940]

​@barelyasurvivor1257 note to any aspiring empire, avoid using mercinaries, but if you need to use them, honor their contracts. Fall of rome is what happens when you dont, the swiss guard is what happens when you do.

[@henrypaleveda7760]

so human history goes on as normal, but at some point humans "from" space introduce everyone at home to the stars and the galaxy after.

[@knightmare6229]

Yep, once they are ready tho :D

[@alfredsutton7233]

For AgroSquerril: another great read from the best internet science fiction. Thank you.

[@AgroSquerril]

for the algorithm

[@mackenziedrake]

A good story well told. Thank you!

[@royalroses123]

Among us but humans are the imposters:

[@Immoralbites]

i mean... take a moment to learn of that cat you wish to bell... it will save you alot of claw markes

[@elfeater1760]

Good read Agro, Thank you for the story.

[@AgroSquerril]

a pleasure

Hilariously, the description of the solar system isn't even accurate: all four gas giants have ring systems, though Saturn's is by far the largest and most dramatic. Most people are at least peripherally aware of Jupiter's rings, but both Uranus and Neptune have ring systems, as well. As do minor planets Chariklo and Chiron, and dwarf planet Haumea! Our solar system is a very interesting place, as it turns out. Perhaps more helpful would have been the detail that the four gas giants orbit farther out in the solar system than the smaller rocky worlds! This is an inversion from most of the exosystems we've observed so far, which seem to feature gas giants practically hugging their local stars rather than hanging farther out in their orbits.

Idiot didn't think he just put a target on whoever received that transmission.

All hail algorithm who bought me here!

[@ironworksdragon6843]

I would think bob the dragon is well pleased

[@AgroSquerril]

glad to hear it

[@galaticplays1845]

I have found the lord of HFY Bob the dragon

[@James-bw4np]

Thank you for the story reading!

yay, free weapons of mass de- - - - fence, yes, defend the homeworld!

[@seldonwright4345]

The best defense is a good offense. Aanndd vice versa

[@asdfadfafsdfa]

Agro at his best!

[@sherylcascadden4988]

A comment to appease the algorithm and help the channel

[@nicholasmunroe8989]

I wonder how “primitive” we where in this? Where we at the modern age? Or was it the dark age and Roman times?

[@julonkrutor4649]

Nice one

[@AgroSquerril]

:)

[@secretobvious6033]

hey bro we will be hitting 20k soon🥳🥳

[@AgroSquerril]

That we will :)

For the Algorithm, For the Author(s), For the Disembodied Voice!

[@sun31277]

the text and what you said are very different at the end there.

[@chrissoto7187]
