EVE Fiction

I am currently reading Templar One and I just finished the scene where Grious shows Falek one of the memories of the sleepers. During this scene Grious says "One perspective among trillions in a civilization fighting for its life.... You have unleashed an Armageddon in their world and your own."

This scene makes me wonder if what we are doing to them in the WH's is justified, or did we encroach upon their territory and just start taking what we pleased.

Please note I never portrayed the sleepers being "good".

What I do against (insert any faction here) is tanamount to Genocide. I have literally eaten breakfast while burning Guristas, Serpentis and Sanshas. Capsuleers are walking Genocide machines, and we are appropriately worshiped and feared.

All Sansha are trying to do is reproduce and stay alive, in their own special way of course.

But yes, one wonders how the Sleepers intend to strike back.

If Templar One tells us one thing, is that most of the Sleepers are still living up to their name and are sleeping. They are hooked up in stasis pods living in their VR world. We've pulled out a number of them by removing their implants while they were still inside there, causing the problem with the first gen dust soldiers. The implants still contain part of the person they belonged to, it's like getting a second set personality and set of memories implanted into you.

Furthermore, every structure, every enclave we destroy destroys part of their VR world, and even though most people in game don't bother because it doesn't drop loot, the book suggests that many raids involves the destruction of their infrastructure. So chances are, sooner or later they will wake up and if they do and they hold a grudge against us for destroying their Utopian world, gods help us.

We may have seen one already with the Awakened infomorph, and the bad news is, they have FTL tech that makes our warp drives, jump drives, and stargates obsolete antiques ( though I don't think they were the ones who initially invented it ) , meaning they could show up anywhere with no warning and send in massive amounts of forces and wipe out anything in sight and get out before anyone could react.

Even better, the spatial rifts (and technically wormholes as well) could open up near a planets surface and tear it to pieces (Terminus Stream anyone?) , or inside a star to destabilize it and make it go nova.

In fact, they've done this... by accident perhaps, but remember the trailer for the wormhole expansion, an ORE held system got hit by a blast wave from the star.

Yes.

When the sleepers come, it shall be joyous! They will come in glory and power. They shall enlighten us and transform us, and we shall live in their bliss eternal!

You can. Wormhole space is lawless. You can engage anyone who goes to a site. The reward is you've just destroyed someone raiding the site and saved the Sleepers...

Perhaps a RP corp will begin honouring contracts and bounties with fiscal rewards to keep these Sleeper sites safe and provide employment for those interested.

RP only sucks if you don't apply some creativity.

from my memory. the explosions that caused the wormholes. were caused by rogue drones that were harvesting i believe isogen 5 or somthing like that that was only found in systems with a blue sun. and when the minmatar captain convinced the rogue drone to destroy the super Armageddon that had a ancient super weapon. that killed an entire fleet with 1 shot. this ship was parked at a stockpile and the drones blew it and somthing happened and all the stock pile thru out the galaxy blew and cause worm holes to show.

When the Sleepers arise we shall all be awakened.
