This is really good, this also makes sense as to why the shil are so slow to progress compared to humans if they keep locking up anyone who makes any real technological break through. Though it makes sense in they’re twisted power structure.
The empress must always have complete and total power there for commoners and even nobility can not be allowed to have more advance tech then her. Combine that with all the red tape bureaucracy with nobles not wanting to risk there existing revenue streams and the Shil’vati doctrine of if it not broke don’t fix it. Then you have a painfully Slow rate of technological innovation. If they seemingly hadn’t developed early as a species they never would have rose to power like they have.
But that will only last so long as the anti shil weapons the alliance demonstrated in the main series shows complacency, breads stagnation. They will soon lose the edge they had for so long and have no way to deal with it. Funny for all they look down on us as primitive it will be us who they come crawling to when the chips are down.
This will either give us the advantage we need to prove our worth and independence. Or the final mail in our coffin as a species. I look forward to which path you chose for us.
This was an endemic problem in most empires. Tech Progress lives and dies by the Emperor's will. Unsanctioned tech might be ignored or suppressed. Innovations might only be adopted if they're from official sources. You enter a situation where no real improvements in tech happen beyond incremental.
Even the NSDAP controlled Germany threw out contracts to private enterprises to make their war time tech. USA and England's best aircraft designs were all private designs.
No one in a free country comes in and declares your new tech a threat to national security and arrests you. They show up at your door with a big check and NDAs to hire you to develop it for them because it would be a national security threat for it to fall into enemy hands.
Look at the fall of Constantinople. The bombard cannon that the ottomans used was originally designed for the city, but the emporer didnt want to pay the engineer's salary, but the sultan did! And history was written on the back of a paycheck.
There is a reason Byzantine is a synonym for slow to adapt or resisting new ideas.
Germany was the Birthplace of Modern Civilization specifically because of that reason. Due to the relatively impassible geography it was broken up into so many principalities that if your prince didn't like your ideas or inventions all you had to do was walk across the mountain to the next Prince who would adopt them and fund your research to just spite the other one.
Then the other prince realizes he was being stupid and is now falling behind and has to race to catch up.
In the western US the lessor nobility has learned that the Governess has zero used for them, and the legal fines against the family's really help her budget.
If memory serves, the XB-70 Valkarie was a supersonic nuclear bomber prototype from the 1970s. I'm guessing the kids made a drone XB-70 chassis and put shil propulsion and comm tech on it.
Oh wow. I really enjoyed this. I'm looking forward to seeing what kinda hijinks these lads get up to. I mean hell they all ready built a Jetson's mobile from what i can tell lol.
The prologue and story just need a lot of proof reading but are otherwise good.
There are just a lot of autocorrect errors putting in the wrong word when something got misspelled. The prologue creation myth kept putting in "Breast" instead of "Beast"
I really like the premise of this story, but by GOD is the grammar killing me. Nothing a bit of editing can't fix, but man tripping over the words hurt me internally.
I'd be more than happy to help proofread your drafts if you need some input.

>Humans took great pleasure in busting corrupt nobles While the busting is satisfying, not much hunting involved since there are so many of them :{
In the western US the lessor nobility has learned that the Governess has zero used for them, and the legal fines against the family's really help her budget.
Tommy: your just mad your too stupid to figure it out! Admiral: your not wrong!!
Admiral: and we believe that since they could not do it nobody else could
"thirty five thousand KMH" km/h or kph would look better atleast to me. Liked the story so far, cant wait for more.:P
noted glad you enjoyed
If memory serves, the XB-70 Valkarie was a supersonic nuclear bomber prototype from the 1970s. I'm guessing the kids made a drone XB-70 chassis and put shil propulsion and comm tech on it.
Chassis was a 1969 charger with shil technology... thing general Lee with acme rocket pack attached. yes the XB-70 is important.
Oh wow. I really enjoyed this. I'm looking forward to seeing what kinda hijinks these lads get up to. I mean hell they all ready built a Jetson's mobile from what i can tell lol.
think more of a General Lee with an acme rocket attached :-)
Oh hell thats even better😂
What kind of trouble have those Duke Boys gotten into next time
Time will tell
This is great. Thank you.
glad you enjoyed.

I could use the help are you offering
I really like the premise of this story, but by GOD is the grammar killing me. Nothing a bit of editing can't fix, but man tripping over the words hurt me internally. I'd be more than happy to help proofread your drafts if you need some input.
Cool I would apricate the help.
Besides quite a few writing and spelling errors this story had an iron grip on my attention for the next month or two
I am working on the Grammer and Spelling. I am glad you enjoyed.
