Hey everyone!

I finally finished this chapter. It took much longer for me to write than I anticipated, for various reasons both with the story itself and issues at home, so apologies for the long wait.

Anyway, I really hope you enjoy it. 

As usual, please let me know if you spot any typos!

Cheers,

Tefler

Not sure if already pointed out. Missing “hear” So... where to now?* he asked Alyssa as he entered the Observatory. *The Lagoon...* she replied, and he could the eager anticipation in her voice.

Daviď Robertshaw

"Alyssa peeled off to meet the girls, but John continued onward to speak to Edraele and his two matriarchs. Auralei turned to flash him a lovely smile as John approached and he embraced her when she hurried into his open arms." i don't think John was going to speak to Edraele AND his two matriarchs

thank you

Awesome, hopefully things improve on all fronts

.10: THANK YOU TEF, ...On the free sites (Lit and SOL), they were last updated back in April, four months ago, ... Last chapter was #142, and now they are 13 to14 chapters behind, ... it might be time to catch them up a bit, just sayin' ;-) TTFN

Antoine Scrivener

Excellent but don't envy you. As a writer I know all to well the tangled web of our own making we can get caught in. Just happy to see this saga move towards its conclusion.

Arrowglass

Totally incredible! Will it be Faye's re-birth and a prayer answered?

Arrowglass

Tefler...you always manage to keep me guessing...on he edge of my seat...so well done!!!!

I legitimately bawled my eyes out at the final reveal.

Shelton

Is it Garania or Garinia?

AK Furry

Here's a couple more errors that have not been reported yet. Realising that the Maliri Queen was not going to be easily dissuaded, Auralei nodded her consent. “Alright, if you insistent.” insist ? Sitting gracefully in the seat beside her, Edraele clasped the Larathyrans hand. Larathyran's?

Michael56Smith

.29: I missed Faye terribly, but I was certain that they would be able to clone Alyssa and make a body for Athena way before bringing back Faye, ... but with the Progenitor War escalating, they truly NEED Faye, ... and a digital Faye is needed as well. I think this qualifies as a genuine 'Tef twist', ... also Daphnie and the Invictus's collective will be happy too! ;-) TTFN

Bp Hlpt

I don't remember if it was ever mentioned, but why do the border trade stations all start with "Gen" - Geniya, Genirath, Genwynn, and Genkiri - what does "Gen" mean in Maliri? I had assumed that the name of the Maliri was derived from Mael’nerak, but I don't get the "Gen" connection.

Jedi Khan

Fucking called it! From the moment Rachel mentioned her theory that the minds of cloned bodies start as blank slates, I knew Faye would be getting an organic body. I knew it would be a team up between the girls to get it done. And after her death, it would be a step backward in her development to bring her back as an AI. And here it is! The moment of vindication, bitches! HA! Bring it, Tefler! It is long overdue!

DemonHunterCole

You bastard, what a cliffhanger. Ugh, I’m not even mad anymore, it is that good!

RedB

I'm sticking. This is crumbs we are taking about. A large cup of coffee at 7 11, is going up to $3-00 to $4-00. Any half decent coffee is $7-00 plus here in Aus. I promise my Mrs & kids too stuff and break promises too. Enjoy the ride. Too many Karens & loose cannons now day. If you had 1% of the talent Tef has, well write your own story. All authors have writers block, timing issues, personal family time & needs. Get off his back & let him complete what I personally regards as a work of Art. Stop this endless whingeing. Fuk i would hate to be related to some of the fkn whiney patrons here. Go back to the free version. I will up my rate if I need to, to keep this story active. Rant definetly not over. Red.

RedB

Sorry for any bad spelling or lack of correct grammar!!!

Norvstar

I’ll come back after fleet engagements

Steen Kaasgaard

*The Lagoon...* she replied, and he could the eager anticipation in her voice. --> could hear the eager anticipation Thank you so much for the story. I look forward to each and every chapter!

Unresolved Plots

Thanks Tefler. Great chapter, especially the ending!!

"best way you can repay us, is keep everyone" should be "best way you can repay us is to keep everyone"

Lawrence

My prediction: Faye quickly becomes the Matriarch of Robots and Sentient Computers, securing for John control of the Defensive Outposts.

Str8NotNarrow

"had good reason not take" should be something like "had good reason to not take"

"just decided to trust Alyssa knew" s/b "just decided to trust that Alyssa knew"

“The new Larathyrans governors will all be young and experienced, … “. I think you meant to say INexperienced.

Luke McDaniel

What is it with you and cliff hangers?

Son Of Anubis

Alright, I'm ready for 156 and 157. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. Like it always does in a masterful Cluster Fuck

Puttanegra Ficondo

Eagerly awaiting for a chapter where something actually happens, at this point. With the exception of the prologue and the cliffhanger at the end, this was among the softest chapter of the entire series. It is obviously a quiet-before-the-storm, but not quite what should have taken a month to put together, You will do better than this (and have set the bar quite low to do so) in next couple of chapters.

ringill

Noticed a couple of speech/telepathy mismatches, *We know you’re in a rush to depart,* Auralei chimed in a moment later. *As soon as Jade docks at Genthalas, we’ll disembark and you can set off immediately.” *I’m not sure. When we start engaging the Galkiran fleets, I doubt we’ll have much of an opportunity to return to Genthalas until it’s over,* he admitted. *Please look after each other while I’m away. You’re both my matriarchs, so you’ll be in a unique position to support each other.”

Aaron Yuro-Smith

The majority of this chapter felt very soap opera to me. Extending of previous scenes with no real advancement. The only real thing was the end which admittedly was huge and I may have teared up a bit but that's not unlike a soap opera either.

Negative Energy

I think you meant inexperienced here: "The new Larathyrans governors will all be young and experienced, so they’ll be more likely to listen to Auralei if she projects confidence."

AK Furry

Also... "The new Larathyrans governors will all be young and inexperienced" Should be Larathyran

Bigfoot

I was just about to post this correction. Ya'll beat me to it :(

Chris

That ending. Been waiting for that to come about full circle, wanting to see how you were going to get there. Love it. Now get 156 and 157 out. You have some rabid fans here man.

Thanatos95

Yes! Return of the best girl. I hated tefler for what he did to Faye

Richard D

Getting old to see no interaction from the author until pay day. He was never overly involved in the community, but now he is stringing us along.

Muledrvr

Well.... not what I was expecting....

Michael56Smith

.70: I expected the beauty in Mael'neraks lab to be a clone of Alyssa, for Athena, ... now Tef has John spot, and recognize FAYE! So, not a Nymph clone body to pour Faye's memories into, but still an organic, breathing, FAYE! Already poured? Is there a digital Faye too? Chapter #156 will have lots of 'plainin' to do. ;-) TTFN

JeanMartin Freites

Okay so I finally finished the chapter and man, that ending was something else.

Bp Hlpt

I really enjoyed Chapter 155, Tefler. The slower pace, somewhat forced by waiting for the Wormhole Generator to recharge, was a good chance to show the continued character development as everyone interacted. Better than just saying [12 hours later...] The sex scenes, which I know some just skip over, acted in the same way and fit with what was going on. Chapter 155 Typos (some found by others) As usual, over 80 of the paragraphs have extra ‘spaces’ at the end of them. Please clean this up. It just wastes "space" LOL. :) Would it help if I identified exactly which paragraphs? I have not been doing that lately since it is not necessary for you to know in order to correct them, but if you'd rathre... There is an extra Paragraph End Mark, or two, at the end of the Chapter. There is an extraneous ‘space’ between paragraphs before - ‘Rachel smiled as she joined them.’ There is an extraneous ‘space’ between paragraphs before - “Let us take care of you, my Lord,” “I can’t afford to be that cold,” -- Extraneous space before ‘“I’ “I can’t afford to be that cold,” Auralei was shocked at the -- Extraneous space before ‘Auralei’ Auralei was shocked at the “Alright, lead on,” -- Extraneous space before ‘“Alright’ “Alright, lead on,” Lioness on his right, Edraele’s soothing voice -- Extraneous space before ‘Edraele’s’ Lioness on his right, Edraele’s soothing voice seeing me without my armour.

Also, please remember the typos previously posted for prior chapters. Maybe implement them as you post those chapters to the free sites? I know it's not your focus now, though you do need to post some free chapters since they are so far out of sync, but having those done will make things easier for you when you eventually get around to putting things together into eBook form.

.78: I had been waiting for Bp Hlpt's TYPOS LISTING for #155, it was quite long, and seems pretty complete, a good help to Tef I am sure. Now it feels like #155 has officially landed, ... ;-) TTFN

.79: And come on #156, ... and Faye! ;-) (-; TTFN

Anthony Kester

Am I the only one that keeps rereading the end of this chapter?

Steve

If Tef had any pride or ethics he would credit back this chapter. When he billed the preview he said it was almost finished. Then to wait a whole month for this garbage is pathetic. He spent almost 3/4 of the chapter on sex. Not sure why he felt he needed that much mindless filler. For those who were shocked about Faye all I can say is 'REALLY?'. He has been building up to that for months and you are shocked? Yeah he could have went the Athena route but there was always 2 options for the incubation chamber. If the next two chapters don't improve dramatically I won't really care if he finishes the story. It has been a great story up to a few months ago but the last few chapters have all been seriously lacking. All of the significant plot developments could have easily been put into 1 or 2 chapters at most. The Walker trial has gotten so boring I stopped reading those parts. The Larathyan background and character development drug out way longer than was necessary. Quite honestly it looks like Tef is just putting out whatever crap he can think up just to justify charging again.

Big Orca

Location of cloaked space battle stations: since they have access to the control throne, the location of the space battle stations should be very simple to determine. Just look them up. The big boss surely will have his own assets plotted on a nice 3D map, along with up-to-date systems status. They should have always had AI and robots to keep up with basic maintenance.

Wheres my perverted pixie faaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyye!

AzureReader

While I miss Faye I was really hoping the species printer was going to make a body for Athena. She needs her own body so Alysa can reach her full potential. Athena would be a powerful new crew member, somewhere in the ballpark of having another progenitor on board. I’m sure Tef/John will pump up Faye with some super skills and I’m sure the sex will be great, but the timing seems odd. But I’m not all-knowing the way Tef is. I’m sure he has good plans.

Evan

I'm going to be very happy to see Faye's return and her wishes fulfilled, and I know that the Collective will be very interested as well, especially Daphne, but I find the comments regarding Athena and her getting a body to allow Alyssa to reach her full potential to be a bit perplexing. Faye was (and hopefully will evermore be) an independent entity with her own existence. Athena is *part* of Alyssa, formed from Alyssa's own brain. She may be an independent personality, per se, but Alyssa, unlike John, chose to keep her 'Guide' as such, rather than absorbing her and reintegrating those resources with her own core personality. Creating a new body for her and separating her from Alyssa would be taking from Alyssa, not freeing her as some have suggested, since Athena is part of Alyssa. Furthermore, they appear to have come to a satisfactory arrangement, allowing Athena to protect John when Alyssa is sleeping (as is John), especially after the TSM is given to another new member of John's girls. I'm actually wondering why we've had no mention of that happening again, recently, too.

faye was my kind of perverted pixie!, special sure we can call it that michael ;)

Michael56Smith

.118: Why didn't the cloning incubation chamber contain a Nymph / Lanerran? Why did it look like Faye when John looked on? Well, that might be part of the answer. A nymph changes shape to look like her Masters' perfect mate, .... and I assume that the girls (Irillith, Dana and Alyssa too) had already uploaded her with all the personality and the memories of the original Faye, so the future Cyber-Faye became Faye for John right then, maybe, and also maybe an Alyssa clone is waiting around there somewhere for Athena, when John can gift both new bodies with the 'Spark of Life'? ;-) TTFN

Who Me

So it will just turn out to be a Nymph that takes the form of the "Perfect Woman" for John that happens to look like Faye.

Jedi Khan

With Faye's return imminent, I have to wonder about her memories that the team has. They got them from Daphne, right? I seem to recall the scene where Faye gave Daphne those memories. I believe they were described as focusing on her feelings of love and happiness with the crew. Meaning, those memories aren't *all* of Faye's memories. Faye likely didn't copy over her memories of various projects that she was working on the side, such as her AI research that resulted in Daphne, and any other projects. Remember, she was an AI with 12 avatars, each one able to run independent processes, so she could very well have had at least 12 different secret projects in the works. Who knows what amazing and/or important things could have been forgotten about with the loss of Faye's memories. Hell, she could very well have been on the verge of cracking the secrets of wormhole travel and would have been able to save Dana and Alyssa so much trouble smoothing out the resulting nausea. Then there's whatever she saw on the ship's cameras that she decided to wait to tell John about before her death. That memory definitely wouldn't be included in what Daphne has.

Big Orca

The problem with the wormhole travel has to do with the material of the generator. The team will find that with some white and some gold in the metal, the generator will charge a lot faster than 12 hours once Alyssa helps Dana sort out the right charging process.

You asked for typos. I always feel diffident about pointing them out, in case I seem overcritical. Here's one: "Auralei finally climaxed, her back arching as she was overwhelmed oral pleasure from him for the first time." "…overwhelmed *by* pleasure…", I think.
