He was distinctly surprised Carrier class shi+ps were enorular aircraft They couldshi+p environment

Generally, they existed asinto the atmosphere

And they were predoh some wealthy nations and coest exai War Arts

The white netic lock strips indicated that this was definitely Panopticon tech, however

"Is that also a human creation?" said Valera

Aldrich nodded

"Incredible," sheshi+ps thatto the dwarves"

"Humanity has come very far in this realm," said Chiros "It does make me wonder whether they would have done the same had they not been in fierce competition with so many other peoples in ours"

When needed, the Dominion could also shi+ft into its mech form, and it idely considered a syth

'And, thankfully, not possessed,' noted Aldrich, unable to sense any de off of it 'Still, quite odd I didn't think the Panopticon would ured out how to deal with the Stranger's possession'
