With This Ring (Young Justice SI) (Thread Fourteen)

[Sordid Snake]

"I burned my records in protest at their cretinous lack of vision."

Good god! A Mimbari Howard Roark!

 

[Vaermina]

And how exactly would they know about that particular soul?

Click to shrink...

You don't think the Vorlon's left Minbari undefended, do you?

Well the fact that he just saved her life can go a long way towards establish trust.

Click to shrink...

Which is why she isn't immediately calling Delenn and reporting the claim so Delenn can drag Matthew in front of various technological means they have to infer things.

Unless Delenn and Mayan pull some strings.

Or heck, he could just manufacture some documents for the building that say that the architect wanted it to be finished and have them be found by the Minbari.

Click to shrink...

He would have to tell Delenn what he wanted to do for that, and then convince her that he was being truthful.

As to the documents, this isn't 21st century Earth, anything he fabricates would have to pass Minbari authentication.

 

[BR549]

But if he succeeds in his endeavors...he should be around when arguably the most infamous Dilgar ever is going to visit the station. Should be interesting...

Click to shrink...

More than interesting. "Ring, scan and manufacture a ton of the immortality serum" is absolutely something he would do. "Oh, what's that, the serum requires something to be extracted from living sophonts? I have a magic ring.". The only question is whether he'll force dose everyone on the station, and if the serum requires continuous injections (I don't think so, but I'll need to rewatch the episode).

As I said before: if there is anybody in this universe who deserves to be made into a Construct Lantern, it's Deathwalker.


...semi-relatedly, Mr. Zoat, is The Dilgar War canon background for this?

The Dilgar War definitely happened? Are you referring to something else?

Did they leave them a way to detect what species a soul taken by a Soul Hunter belongs to?

The only thing they seem to have left them to detect Shadow servants is that triangle thing that showed up on Delenn's forehead when she met Morden.

And that basically showed up a single time. The time she met a Drakh is didn't show up.

Click to shrink...

And manipulating documents is somehow beyond a power rings abilities?

Come on.

Yes, they're called Telepaths.

Minbar isn't 2014 Earth...

What exactly is he going to manipulate? The planetary computer systems that are thousands of years more advanced then anything Power Rings have been shown capable of accessing?

 

[SerbobIV]

Because minbari humour is based on the failure to gain spiritual enlightenment, and me saying that after being elevated by a First One I wanted to go back to doing what I did before hit her funny bone.

Click to shrink...

They must absolutely love the ones about the monk who attained enlightenment.

Like: A budhist monk goes to Harveys and asks them to make him one with everything.

 

[BR549]

Click to shrink...

There's a VERY lengthy and very well-done fic on Spacebattles by Lightning_Count that tells the story of the war. About...15 years ago now? It's generally regarded as canon-grade.

 

[teikan]

Why didn't all the Lanterns share their ring databases after defeating the Smurf from the beginning of the universe? I'd do the same with my copies if I were them.

P.s. I just read to the part where they mention information sharing. But it still sounds more like a verbal transfer of information than just a quick file transfer to everyone from everyone.

 

[Darko]

Yes, they're called Telepaths.

Click to shrink...

And would they be able to read the mind of a soul?

Or even know that they'd need to read it because it's a Shadow servant?

Click to shrink...

Yeah, because power rings are totally incapable of accessing advanced computer systems.

Except they can.

Unless the Minbari have magic, and I mean actual magic, not techno-mage LARPing, then there's not much that can't be accessed.

Heck, he doesn't need to manipulate computer systems.

He can just have the architect write her plans and then use the ring to age to documents so that they appear to come from when she was alive.
