[RFC] Jump Gates
 
#26
Some random thought about the whole gate system...

"The discovery of the alien Stargates is the greatest chance and threat to Fenspace and Earth ever happened. We see the remainders of a civilisation that spanned the stars of the galaxy with technology beyond anything we know. And we see the evidence they did not left peacefully, we see planets hit by kinetic weapons, we even have found a destroyed gate. It did not happen millions of years ago, it happened during a time while the pyramids on Earth were already finished! Just a few thousand years later and the Interwave signals we are creating would have drawn Fenspace into their conflict. But they seem to be gone and we have to ask what made them do so... and if the forces that won this war are still there, somewhere behind the existing gates. We have to solve the puzzle, but we also have to be prepared."

Since there's no Ancient gate in the Zeta Tucanae system, the Artemis Foundation doesn't have any first-hand data on the gates. Any fragment sent to StellviaCorp will quickly find its way to Sullivan Dwyer's office.

"They said the same thing about the Whole Fenspace Catalog, and the Miranda's discovery of alien sentient life, and handwavium. Yes, we should be prepared for the worst, but it's highly unlikely that the worst is what we'll get."

the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

Yggdrasil (the planet) looks a little bit like it got the short end of a kinetic bombardment... and the fact that the Epsilon Eridani gate was wrecked could also be an evidence of a war, fought a few thousand years ago.
