Chapter 178 - Janus’s Return - Part 4
“Now that is impressive.” Janus muttered under his breath as he took in the panoramic view of the Asuran eperopolis for a moment before turning to Eventus. “The Asuran network shouldn’t have had data needed to accurately recreate our technology to this level. I wonder whether they recovered a database from somewhere or if it’s just a surfa...

After spending the night as Janus's jailer, Eventus had quickly come to realize that he had made a grave mistake in bringing the scientist back around so many hours before the Asuran's would be ready for the two of them to head down to their world.
Because it meant spending time with Janus, and the scientists was almost everything Eventus had ...

“The return of the Orb of Wisdom by Grand Nagus Zek is believed by some in the Vedek assembly to be a reminder from the Prophets that the words of the Cardassians can never be taken at face value. And as a result, new calls have begun for First Minister Li Nalas to demand the return of the remaining Orbs before en...

“And you're just going to hand me over to them?” Janus demanded as Eventus finished explaining the Asuran situation.
“With their base code intact the worst they can do to you is throw you into a moderately comfortable hole.” Eventus countered, letting the annoyance he was feeling seep into his voice. “And truth be told, that's a bett...

The room the Asgard were storing Janus's cryopod in was, for all intents and purposes, completely inaccessible by any manner other than Asgard transporter. A level of precaution Eventus could appreciate given the steps he was planning on taking to secure Janus after walking him.”

“And now if they manage to convert enough of the humans in the Avalon galaxy they'll gain the power needed to wipe out the other Ascended and nothing will be left to stop them acting directly against the rest of the universe.” Eventus finished his retelling, idly wondering if it would be too much to ask if they'd be willing to get him a gl...

The chamber Niam led them to was almost a carbon copy of Atlantis's judicial chamber. Which was more than a little telling about just how Oberoth saw this meeting.

“You understand that if they raise their city-ship’s shields it will be highly unlikely that I will be able to retrieve you?” Thor asked from this command chair.

As slow as the Samatha Carter was compared to normal Asgard vessels, that still had it making the trip back to the Pegasus Galaxy in a little under a day.

The room they had been led to was a lot nicer than the grey walled one Rayla had stayed in at Stargate Command. Especially since she was pretty sure from the way that everything in the room had been set up, that the Asgard had assembled it solely for their use.

The interior of the Samantha Carter’s landing bay was starkly bare in a way that suggested it had only been included as something of an afterthought. Which Eventus supposed might very well have been the case given the Asgard’s general lack of need for such things.

Trudging tiredly back through the door into their borrowed room, Eventus couldn’t help but feel distinctly like he’d just gotten a brief window into why Moros had ended up like he had.
