Only way this ends with the Council surviving is if they somehow convince the Humans that they didn't know about what happened and immediately throw the Srnen in front of the Juggernaut

[@onerxowns2202]

No, it end with end of Galactic Council at best, extermination of all space-faring races at worst

[@AugustoEL]

CThey better go to humanity with the heads of the Srnen and any information to help humans exterminate them. With that they may prove to not be allies of the Srnen.

[@Chokah]

@@AugustoEL the recording of the Meeting might help as well since it'd help show that none of the other races knew that Earth even existed much less what was happening. They might have to pay the toll, but it might keep them from extermination.

[@AugustoEL]

@@Chokah I at least would not think that attacking them (the other races) is right, but would probably be suspicious of any space faring race with waht happened.

[@rhorybader4054]

Honestly I'm kinda tired of humanity being so all or nothing, one or the other. We're not a fucking Star Trek planet-of-hats species. Lots of humans are gonna go HMMM THESE ALIENS DON'T LOOK OR ACT OR BEHAVE THE SAME, MAYBE THAT'S A CLUE and not just BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD CAUSE HUMANS ARE ALL WARHAMMER 40K RAAAAAHHH! The fact that we almost never see this is tiresome.

[@shinraset]

@@rhorybader4054 I like your mindset! But I think a paraphrased quote from The saga of Tanya the evil rings true. "Rationality is not the only thing that drives humanity."

[@smaragdwolf1]

@@rhorybader4054 shinraset is right. Humans are emotional Pack animals - fight or flight. Witnessing the Death of probably Billions by an Enemy who doesnt follows any rules and even eats defenseless children.... that would absolutely cause heavy emotional damage and a boiling Rage. Totally understandable. Basically said, the human species is an omnivorous, Pack-Predator Species. Cornered, with no option to escape, survival instinct will kick in, which will probably disable rationality.

[@rhorybader4054]

@@shinraset It is not, and I fully agree. But even at our worst there are those who will dissent. There will always be the Oskar Schindlers (to use an extreme example) who buck our basest, cruelest instincts and work against them.

*Ares* And both were treated wrong! Coca leaves have incredible properties on their own. Cocaine is small doses can help the dying survive long enough to reach medical help. Yet, because of some idiots who use it for recreation, it is tarnished as medicine! Human blood unfiltered , is a lethal cocktail all on its own. There are enough toxins in it to kill a bull. Its why we have kidneys. They filter the toxins out, before they can harm us. Mind we have a partial immunity to them. A xeno species drinking unfiltered human blood straight form the source? I'm surprised they did not die on the spot. Maybe their blood flow is slower than in humans , that could account for the lag. The high is easy to explain. Oxygen! If it gets us high, a species who need less would hit orbit!

only thing i didn't like in the story, which is nickpicking from someone who knows about star radioactiveness, is that our sun is very calm for a yellow dwarf, and orange dwarf are waaay more radioactive and active than a satandard yellow dwarf and red dwarf are often called flare star because of how active they are and how often they emit solar flare, they are the most radioactive dwarf star we have, other than that it was a very good story, like i said it just itch my side because i know of the technicality of stars but i'm not expert

[@Devin_Stromgren]

Perhaps they wanted to convert the sun into a red giant, not dwarf. Assuming I'm remembering correctly about red giants being stable.

[@FrenchLightningJohn]

@@Devin_Stromgren if red giant are indeed more stable then it would make a lot of sense for sure

[@alexisgrunden1556]

Perhaps the Srnen's biology makes them particularly susceptible to the radiation of yellow suns? Maybe other star types produce different varieties of radiation, or in different proportions?

[@falseprophet1024]

@@FrenchLightningJohn If i recall correctly, red dwarfs are more active, but yellow stars are more 'powerful'. The reason red dwarfs are seen as maybe not great for life is because of their heat. Their habitable worlds would have to be far closer to red sun to have water. A planet at the same distance to its red dwarf, as earth is to sol, would experience far less radiation. The unbelievable parts are.. A. That they could live on a planet 1 au from a red dwarf. B. That they had the technology to remove entire solar systems worth of mass from a star, and that they would do that in order to access the resources of a few planets more easily. C. That we fought off a species capable of reshaping the star.. It was a fun story anyways, though..

Best they could do is forward the council meeting to them. If asked "how do we know it wasn't faked", it would be easy to divulge that this was a galactic wide live stream for even citizens of every race, hence why the younglings protection act was enacted. Because we don't condone, want to ever see, or experience that, let alone let our younglings see those horrors. That type of wording, honesty, and alibi, we'd probably be able to acknowledge and work from there with relations. I'd like to think that even when enraged, we'd know to harm those that deserve it. Especially with intelligence agencies. Never underestimate the human intelligence agencies ability to gather information.

[@jeremybumgarner1908]

I am trying to write a novel, and that line is beautiful and dark and thunderous. Death itself would take up his scythe at the blood spilled not in the name of a human war, but of an alien being craving it. One ship among them would be the USS Reaper, with a great scythe armed with missile launchers and a mighty rail gun running through the beast of a ship. A planet cracker, one to reap the souls of those who share the blood of those who wronged Death's own world.

[@Amoth_oth_ras_shash]

@@jeremybumgarner1908 well thank you , i do like to leave some shard of my thoughts where good music or good stories inspired so to speak if it helps inspire someone else i am flattered ;) though i'd say not the uss , it be the .....u.n reapers.. and it not be a single ship but be a very limited numbers but highly respected class of ships from the first days of truely countering the invasion as the way it be staffed at first and the origins of its materials would ever more be a deep part of how they be deployed both in ther birth years and later when each planet grown industrial enough to support assets on ther own..maby not gaia as the defilement of the wild garden might have sparked some deep veneration for how its wilderness gave the humans as chance to hide and fight back... but well , if it entertain i can share what hues this concept of ''reaper destroyers'' that reflects of my thoughts in contrast to this story hmm... it be ships that stay in the U.n fleet being updated for generations after all since in ther birth some stations being manned by the last surviving fragments of whole cultures as tragic as ther lose would be , humans seeing it like the only way for them to defy a renewed invasion.... it be something that later new crew honour as no matter what bickering ther governments might have... marsians , plutonians , jupiternans , gaians... when joining any of the original reaper ships... they be very conscious of ther history , just as the later shiny far larger pure human engineered dreadnought cousins carrying the same name for ther shared development of carrying 'tactical weaponry' also give honour them when ever passing by in orbital dry dock in the name of how some died to ensure they got forged swiftly in the wake of those first months of once more 'owning' ther mother worlds skies... , how others watched ther entire culture being engulfed by the creeping mists of history as them lingering on earth/gaia to breath it into a new generation... be pointless if the ships ment to scare of a new invasion of those eating sentient ones not where staffed... and with all human industries at best in a ''patched up with pieces of other hardware or alien one'' or flat out re-purpused patched up only partly functioning hulks captured from the invasion fleet.... the first reapers would have ther bones forged by human materials ,but so much of them be purged salvaged alien tech... where the greater expertise of the aliens be part of why they be built as planet crackers... reapers... at least it be a quick death.. and these first 'icon carriers' being forged to awaken over looking the still scared smouldering body of ther smiths mother.. not to mention surrounded in the drifting fields of corpses sharing those first ones orbit from where the humans only option to remove the constant threat of orbital bombardment hade been to capture or make ad-hoc one way trip transports that die in droves to the invaders hard points on approach.. and leverage numbers and ferocity in boarding to render ther ship weaponry null or just maby if lucky capturing a few... at first the iconografy these ships be recognised by at a glance would just be crews and engineers unable to sleep unless in pure exhaustion ..to sleep deep enough that they not recall ther dreams of... the screams of loved ones.... treasured children... being eaten alive... what started as just left over scraps used as art forged to the soothing purrs of the beast promising to leet all aboard drink to ther bleeding hearts content to drown out the screams of ther lost ones spirits ..of its very own essence for aslong they need to... no matter how much those that come after them regret the beast been unleashed once more.... its purrs would carry the promise it not deny them a single drop of the rage and blood thirst it embodied.. and only fight new chains to hone them agenst unknown dangers... bairly sticking to the pure utilitarian functional and ever so beautifully brutal hull , ensured not to hinder its weapons or weaken any spot of its hide even if falling of... ensured not to block any field of view for its mag rail hard point turret defenses... or brawling capable large caliber battle ships worthy ones... nor to block any ecm scrambling transmitters... or get in the way of the launch tubes for those salvaged and crude but functionally adapted missiles.. where old cold war icbm shells of the bickering despotic super nations for once stood side by side... merged with alien drives... warheads infused with exotic materials bairly understood yet... and above all...not to hinder the dreadful embodiment of the beast of war and its endless rage.. the megalithic sized rail gun going down the spine of the destroyers and run slightly over half the length of the ships.. even as they be kilometers the hathces.. or as the crew nickname them.. the jaws of its maw and being perhaps the only exposed point of it buried under all the ships armour and weaponry.... to miss fire it mean the death of the ship as energies only colliding celestial bodies could match is put into a every round... yet... such dread it invoke ,even from its kindred fleet when those jaws open... the baleful light of a concept taken far far far beyond what any 'civilized' civilization find a use of... each of them unique and ther art far more ..refined.. by the time aliens are 'allowed' to face the humans in enough numbers to have recordings survive the meat grinder of a fleet battle the skies above the blood addicts core worlds becomes... yet each also sharing the same specter for the beast to embody them... the grim reaper forzen in a balefull stride on each of its sides..and belly.. and spine.. for all to see its pictogram form in the hull , regardless of guns , missile tubes , ecm transmitters dotting it through its shape... standing as if its mantle been blown down of its scared and cracked skull as if by a roaring wind of something ..awakening... something now turned towards what the reaper looks at... in the direction the 'maw' of each ship be pointing... and the 'maws' of them.... as ever none would allow the art to cripple or weaken its purpose time and resources turned makeshift deception in the effort to delay minds from shattering in grief... into something ,some aliens say.... is alive.. fenrir.. the god slayer wronged by the hands of some yet respected by others as aramgedon dawned his chains broke at last.. hungering his maw ever ready to end all gods found lacking.... his son and daughter only halting ther chase of the moon and sun to call forth ther broods in ther fathers name... to run by his side and feast upon gods ended by his maw.... that they grow strong more worthy of that rich blood... sekhmet & bastet the ever entwined sisters of ferocity , slaughter... protection and healing.. ever seeking to shield those respecting math yet if enraged unleashing a fury and blood thirst no other gods could stand agenst... offering equal guidance to walk safe through the night in graceful guile... as to descend in savage brutality upon all that defiled the sanctity of home and hearth of another's den.. to mention two of the 5 first ...beasts of war... suffering the pains of being forged with parts of ther foes own flesh just to stand ready for ther return no matter what and ensure that if the garden world not could be shielded... then the worlds of its murderers would share its fate... but it became a return that not came until much later... and woe on any that suggest the ships be striped of ther icons... as..perhaps the ships themselfs carries ther reaper and beasts of war symbology with pride in the name of those that will die aboard them knowing that while they ensured ther values and species will survive.... ther culture will become but history... and such delicious karma it be as any galatic council member approaching quickly learns those in a ship of the blood addicts make have a first person experience that while the humans might be noble savages.... in many ways they are savages even as they fight to ensure ther children not ends up in the clutches of despotism hiding behind the veil of survival just as ferociously as they fight to survive.. the beast in ther hearts is awake... and the blood addicts did far worse then slaughter those holding its chain.. chains that it taken centuries to learn how to hold so that the beast be at peace... ....chains that still drips in the oceans of blood and tormented cries of those wronged its deep heart beasts resonating through them for all stained by the waves of that ocean to feel and drink freely from to drown out the echo's of ther loved ones suffering ...even a predator after all kills its food before eating it.. and the beast will not easily go back to slumber once awoken to such a vast sea of rage.. 'rage of countless restless spirits crying in the beast of wars ears to lend its rage for ther kin to end the monsters' the only thing worthy for unleashing a planet cracker weapon... one might say if being poetic for a 'moment' ;) galatic council , as not one armada but ever more ones slips anchor.... the tide of the ocean of blood leet forth so long ago now turns to bath the shores of its origins... and while the pure human dreadnaoughts is a terror to behold having the endurance to withstand several battle ships or multiple tactical strikes and still shatter moons or flay all around them... the visage of a scared but victorious fleet parting way.... for the reaper's... for the beasts of war.... to know ther civilian satelites only was spared so all ther other worlds could behold the beasts of war that been unleashed open ther maws and end whole worlds....

@@jeremybumgarner1908 well... if they not considered to flat out publicly on open channels scream into the void how they are putting every one of those blood addicts in chains and would done it earlier if they only hade known... that kind of visage might just push them to grasp at straws themselfs ,that is the straws of nobility that so painfully slowly chained the beast of war in humans hears once before...

@@kieferkarpfen6897 you don't launch to intercept where that is a potential. If your base is about to be overrun you pull any possible assets back and consolidate IF the enemy is that close, has gotten through radar screening, advance warning, and surface-to-air defense, you don't have time to arm planes, you just bug out.

Hi! :)

[@dragonmaster37206]

Is there more?

[@kotsue123]

There are two more, but the author hasn't updated in about half a year.

[@artbrann]

which given some of the HFY authors, means either the xenos got them or they have a novel to push sometime next year
