Yesteryear has returned. In addition to the language restructuring, there has been a rather important change. If you want to find out for yourself, don’t read further before you read the installment.
Spoiler follows.
There has been a significant change in the Val’Traxan body count. 150,000 free and 100,000 enslaved? 250,000 survivors always struck me as a little high. There’s enough genetic viability there to ensure the continuation of the species without too much worry. So, I’ve removed a zero. And a five. (Mouseover to view, presuming you’re not in a feed-reader)
Also, as a very minor point, I’ve documented the fact that Jay regenerates faster when he is awake than when he’s unconscious. It’s been like that in my head but I doubt I ever noted it before now.
Awww, thought they would have survived anyways, later stories implied that they did rebuild.
They’re a tenacious bunch. I wouldn’t count them out just yet. As T’bia would say,
“When the chips are down, the buffalo is empty.”
Down to 2k total:/ Very few, for the 9 billion.
