Recently a war has broken out among many powers in the galaxy, mostly Goa'uld infighting, but it is starting to bleed out into many fronts, with even the Asgard picking minor Goa'uld factions off.
Many Asgrad have been transferred into their new bodies and after a few months has started to get used to the height and other differences. Mostly the new hormones and other bodily functions, that have long been dormant in their old bodies.
Thor arrived last month, to conduct a massive technological exchange, mostly combat related, but also some medical knowledge. They where interested in the small scale gauss weaponry and the ship based atomic disruption shields, for the war with the replicators.
They also showed interest in some of my more experimental ships technology, as we both are deriving a lot from Ancient tech a lot is cross compatible, that was put on hold for now until I have done more testing.
I also shared the atmospheric enhancement tech with the bio-nanites, though not 100% applicable at the moment, they should easily be able to find a substitute for the Goo, they agreed to share it if they do.
I received the full blueprint for their neutrino ion generators, A worthwhile trade for me, as that is one of the main things holding me back at the moment, scaling nahquadah generators has its limits. These generators are highly efficient, and can run for decades on normal output, using only a few kilograms of stablilized nequadria or other exotic minerals.
Xelax having become more accustomed to dealing with xenos, has been observing the entire time, making sure I don't get worse part of the deal. She has grown a lot since her early days, where she was more aggressive towards them.
I has my reservations, but seeing as I and them both share human DNA now, we have come to an agreement to view me and my allies as human-like instead of straight aliens. I am still somewhat confused at how she tolerates me more that most, even though I am not fully human.
But seeing as even she has undergone the latest enhancements, she to now possess a more mixed genome. Taking the best from many species and create the best lifeform, with pleasing looks has been my entire goal.
Sure I could create a monster and call it a perfect lifeform, but what the point, its not sexy, its not pleasing to look at, it can't procreate the normal way, and runs the risk of getting out of control, like what happened with the Tyranids and the Zerg.
So my goal has become, creating perfect, self thinking, and aesthetically pleasing genomes, though nothing has yet been grown only pieces applied to my and everyone else's genome. Like to Xelax, and it has allowed her perfect control over the null nature, even being able to remove influence with some focus, causing no more discomfort, or sending it into overdrive and straight up soul killing lesser organisms and instantly knocking out bigger lifeforms.
Isha has been in seclusion, working through everything, she is still a bit out of it, feeling more that she is used to even faintly feeling aftershocks from the Warhammer universe, she can even somewhat feel Eldar near the area where we landed, sort of like a anchor point.
She did inform me that one of her last loyal craftworlds, from the eastern rim Iyanden, has arrive from a old Webway gate, following the the echoes of her decimation of Nurgles cage and later her escape to what is now known to many, as the Great Scar.
A region of space near Baal Secundus where I landed, that has turn into a meeting area for just about any named character in Warhammer. The area of space covering many planets and several solar systems, the warp became peaceful and quite, the state is was before the war in heaven.
I don't know how much time passed since I made the warp into a combo meal, but I know when I do return many changes from what little knowledge I have will be the norm, Isha has been teaching me a lot about the state of things before I came a lot and gave the warp a nipple twist.
She also informed me of massive dimensional cracks in the warp separating the Warhammer and the greater Deep Warp, or Void, or Abyss what ever one likes to call it. Just know the beings that roam beyond the boundary will eat a Chaos god for breakfast.
The Old ones and the C'tan build massive walls not just in realspace but in the warp too, isolating the Milky way from most outside influence, the only times this was broken was when the Men of Iron left the galaxy and when the Tyranids ripped open a massive hole from outside drawn by the massive beacon that is the Golden Throne.
Isha has asked me for a favor and I agreed even without knowing what it is, but knowing her it will most likely involve the newcomers from Craftworld Iyanden, though they are but a shadow of their former numbers, they never raided or slaved intelligent races like most of their fellow Eldar, being haters of all things chaos, but mostly Nurgle.
I know Isha has a plan for them, but what it is, I don't know. I will trust her to tell me when she is ready.
Sylvia has grown a lot and now looks like a 17 year old, she has somewhat been glued to Isha, ever since she learned she is a goddess in her end now out universe, though being a goddess is just a higher lifeform she is still very old and very powerful.
My daughter knowing this has even asked isha for genetic sample and displays in power, she has been researching it without end, I am very glad she finally found her calling. She even somehow block most irrelevant genetic Goa'uld knowledge and is fully developing the parts she uses by adding to her own knowledge.
Nirrti has taken all Goa'uld ships and a large part of the military force, 19 Ha'taks and nearly 400000 Jaffa, to join the war and to reap as many rewards as possible.
I have mostly been working on my new larger ship designs and helping the Asgard where I can, Heimdall has not returned and has fully joined my small party of researchers, in our R&D department.
I have been thinking deeply and have noticed a few major problems that will rear their heads in the future, one being my lack of a dedicated forge world, another being my massive lack of people, it will still take decades for the current populating to achieve the level of technological knowhow I needed.
The last problem is my own biology still not being where I would have wanted, sure I have farmed massive amount of research and knowledge from the many outposts I have looted, but there are not many left that I know, one of the few being the Archive device.
Based on my research not even the buffed Asgard brain can safely download it and that have about 3 times the capacity mine has, this is a major problem, but not for the time being as I still have a few Worlds I could visit, to see if I could advance my current tech, one being Warhammer.
I have decided not to go back their until I can finish my new battleship, but for that i need better guns and better upscaled shield systems, as well as a massive organic and inorganic crew. I also want a shipwide biodome, to be able to sustain 60000 soldiers and 120000 permanent service personnel, I also need to design a massive standalone AI core for the ship, as well as the inorganic troops, which need to number at least 300000 to have a chance in any Warhammer engagements.
The ship needs to be able to grow food and feed animals indefinitely, or nearly with only pulling asteroids and harvesting ice and other minerals from them, this is a major hurdle i need to overcome, as well as finding the 120000 volunteers who will life and die on the ship, as they will all but become one with it.
I will need to find a gellar field generator or something similar, for added protection, I could most likely protect the entire ship from incursions by relying on my ability to consume negative emotions and warp currents, I don't want to deal with it until I has more control, or just stronger overall.
