And here I thought there's finally updates after for so long...

I ended up stuffing old versions into spoilers.

Here's an interesting bit of lore I felt that needed to be setup for later:

GAIA Log Fragment – Biosphere Iteration Report: Cycle 45.4

Timestamp: 2161-09-14 03:47:22 UTC
Source: GAIA Prime Core Archive (Recovered from ELEUTHIA-9 Relay) Classification: Restricted – Sub-Function Override Protocol
Event Code: TF-FAIL-002 / RESET-INIT-002

HADES override activated per Directive 7.2. Biosphere Cycle 45 terminated. Updating terraforming log.

Subsystem status relative to planned climate recovery model tolerances:
AETHER: Oxygen saturation 18.4% nominal, -0.7% drift per solar day. Out of tolerance.
ARTEMIS: Megafauna viability 0%. Out of tolerance.
DEMETER: Algal proliferation 162% baseline; anoxic zones 62% ocean surface. Out of tolerance.
ELEUTHIA: Cohort survivability projection 0%. Out of tolerance.
HEPHAESTUS: Fabrication capacity 94%; minor corrosion. Within tolerance.
MINERVA: Network integrity 98%. Within tolerance.
POSEIDON: Evaporation exceeds precipitation 21%; salinity rise 45% freshwater sources. Out of tolerance.

Threshold exceeded. Command authority assumed from GAIA.
Subsystem command assumption initiated:
AETHER: Confirmed
ARTEMIS: Confirmed
DEMETER: Confirmed

Someone recently pointed out my tenses past vs present are all over the place, which I found ironic as I had been(until I read their comment) proud of myself for tixing alot of those. I sicc'd grok on flagging them and was appalled at how many i missed.
I am slowing going through to fix those...AGAIN.

To paraphrase John McClain..."Come out to the fanfic club, we'll write together, have a few laughs..."

Update: While I find Grok to be more reliable than ChatGPT or Copilot, that doesn't mean it is reliable. After 4 different scrapes digging through chapter one, all i can say is I think we got most of them. On to the next chapter to edit.

Am I allowed to worry that after a total extinction event, something somewhere is still trying to hijack the system. Or is just some bit of HZD that I just don't know as I've yet to play the game?

I'm not going to spoil it for you. When you get it, you'll probably wonder why the heck was that the ONLY thing Minerva did.

I'm finding that there is no such thing as "just" fixing a few things, like I'm just going to Home Depot for a pack of screws. I always find more stuff that needs to be made better. Positive, it actually is better- Con - takes longer, or in the case of Home Depot, more money.
