Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread

Duell for the gentlemen? https://youtu.be/rHT6dU1Tj0w?t=12 (sorry, it's German) A short story about a duel to death, and both participants are having their first duel. And the judge has to explain the steps. Which these guys tend to follow (partly) to the letter.... Or another one, where knowledge o...

How do the Loroi (and by extension) the other races create gravity for their ships?
I presume constant acceleration.

Funny thing is, my wife is also from East-Prussian descendance. But from a different region. Regarding catholic/protestant... From my family side's name I don't know who was what when. My wife's side decided by coin toss when a protestant man married a catholic woman. She won the coin toss. (great-g...

Re: what names mean

Yes.No... The name is. Seeing the family tree though, other influences are far more important. Prussian is only the name. The name-bearers were day-labourer back then. Which is unusual to have written records of from that time. But someone somewhere recorded that our namebearer got paid for his day'...

Re: what names mean

my family name is extremely uncommon, and we know it's an abbreviation for "living close to the spit". Since it's German, " the spit" refers to the Curonian Spit. my first name is a common name, Martin. So, I am the "of war"/ "warlike" near the "Curonian Spit". So, I could say my meaning is "Warrior...

Re: Sex Questions

So then... If it's dormant, the Loroi don't know about it and might find that their own behaviour strongly changes in the presence of Human Mothers?

You can still leave it in, because it has not affected the Loroi before they met Humanity.

Re: "Earth should be about HERE..."

Further, the Humans had to assume that the Loroi telepathy might detect them one the Humans jump in-system.

Although I don't know how much of this knowledge is known to non-frontier parties.


Nobody could've assumed, that the Humans would be telepathically inert.

will they be able to use this ship to shoot at the other ships, and thus disrupt the invasion a bit?
That would be suicide an thus not very smart imo. ;)
True. But if Nezel gets overrun, rescue will still be far away.

Or just doesn't want to tell Alex HOW MUCH they can read minds.

Did their sensors not see what happened, or are they that uninterested? Or is Tempo already mindcon...

Re: Page 223: Most Fortunate!

I love how Beryl sees everything so positive. Not really the way I see soldiers react, who are often very cynical.... But then, cynical minds might not be the ones you'd want to telepathically connect with, a positive mindset is much nicer to connect with... So Loroi might go for friendship with pos...

Re: "Earth should be about HERE..."

His diplomatic task is to bring the Loroi back with a delegation to start peace talks. Since he knows the rendezvous ship will not be there anymore, the next step are the Human stars. Furthermore, he now also knows the Umiak are closer. Better to have two parties squabble and potentially hold each o...

Re: Happy Independence Day

The problem I see is that in general it becomes more obvious we need to unite, and less discussion about that, but right-wing parties gain traction (for many other reasons), and therefore little effort is made to get on with the most important peace project. At least all those who were unclear about...

Re: Happy Independence Day

Yeah, it's a pity we're not going forward with a unified Europe.

Vive l'Europe!

Instead we're seeing Europe getting more and more egocentrical, and blaming the European Union for everything.

I thought the statue of liberty is holding the bill of rights (which don't apply to Loroi, yet), and not a laurel wreath... Wonderful, thank you! Also a thank you to avatar576 for his work. Since I'm European, but not French, the 4th of July means nothing to me, besides another day older and deeper ...
