Message: <blockquote data-quote="Krafus" data-source="post: 3540177" data-attributes="member: 27256">Just made it to the end of chapter 379 at the bottom of page 12...I have to say I'm enjoying the story more now than I was before. Maybe it's the fact that you've linked your story to the Vong invasion, and thus that the story is now as much about the Vong invasion than Jyren and Mirax.I enjoyed the alternating between Jyren and Mirax chapters, especially when you left on a cliffhanger.Some more thoughts about the Alraxian Empire - the more I read about it, the more it looks like a house of cards that will collapse at the faintest breeze. It's a wonder Alraxia became the head of an empire considering how pacifistic its inhabitants are. Also, the Tam'Day'U, the planet's most able defenders, being treated like dirt up until Mirax's reforms... Stupid. And while I can understand why living ships wouldn't like weapons incorporated into their bodies, they're going to be in real trouble should the Vong or any other species with heavy firepower decide to invade.Speaking of the Vong, you managed to reproduce the aura of unknown but powerful threat they had at the beginning of the NJO. I've never liked that the Vong's coralskippers were more agile than even A-Wings... But hey, the Japanese had better planes than the Americans when they started fighting in WWII.Also, I've just thought of something... If Jyren's lightsaber is human-sized - as it must be since it was his mother's - then wouldn't it be a rather short weapon for a three meter-tall Alraxian?</blockquote>
