Thank you very much, awesome Story!!

Funny that hope was used positively with pandoras box, considering it was the most evil of all of the monsters.

[@steelsquire2153]

Hope is a two edged blade it can be your best friend, and that one guy who’s face you want to cave in so bad with your car, or a nice pipe wrench. Or a better analogy hope is like a pack of sour patch kids sometimes there is that one that isn’t sour, or the one that’s 90% sour, and 10% anything but sweet.

Where is part 2?

[@Suranfox]

If the expedition party was decimated, then 9/10th of them are still there.

[@Suranfox]

Writers should keep up in their history classes.

[@purplefood1]

​@@Suranfox basically any linguist worth a shit will tell you language is descriptive not prescriptive. This means if people start using a word like decimated, which in the Roman era meant a punishment in which one man in ten would be executed, changes meaning.

[@ChickSage]

Yeah, the dictionary gives the historical meaning as it's second definition, but it's first definition is "kill, destroy, or remove a large percentage or part of".

Confusing on who belongs to which species and kinda anticlimactic end.

[@MrAdharus]

well,toked me a wile to get it...basicly,humans where divided in 2 ...it was an empire and a republic..those where in a some sort of cold war between them...the aliens asked the empire for help...and the end is not anticlimatic..basicly,the human factions decide it that was best to join forces to eradicate the fungus..

[@playertwoeightfourninezero4236]

The twist is that the number 1 threat to the human empire was the human federation. Everyone else is children to them.
