Uhmmm... Better if the location of Darius is given to Congo/Ballroom then hand to them those captured Solly SDs which they can use as relativistic weapons against the MA home planet.

No need for humans to be on-board to send any messages. Just a programmed broadcast transmission saying "Express Delivery from the rest of the Galaxy" a minute or two before impact.

And have Torch kill several billion slaves in a massive Erandi violation?

I think not.

Oh he doesn't really want to violate Eridani. He wants to violate Mesans. Regarding Darius, I suffer from that malady too. It's called "blind rage."

Aside:
Should the denizens of Darius be called Mesans or Darisians, or something other?

Better to end things quickly. Keeping the inhabitants alive would mean keeping the leaders and members of the MA alive, each and everyone which think they have the right to be masters of the human race. With these kinds of people, it is best to kill them all with prejudice so nobody else will try the same stunt.

But the residents of Darius are not Mesans--they are mostly genetic slaves, born and bred on Darius. Darius is all they know.

My name is Honor Alexander-Harrington. You killed my family. Prepare to die.

Apologies if it has already been used.

Which is why I'd like to know what the hell to call them. Besides, well... hell.

I hope we can soon call the slaves, free!
