I actually have something very interesting on my desk that has this inscribed on the front of it. The back of it is black, and is covered with a map, of sorts. Ooh, cool
A map of Jove space?? Or Anoikis?? Ooh, now I'm curious!
So, any idea if you guys will ever be expanding on the connections revealed in templar one? The SoE ships (especially the Nestor) seem kind of telling of future events.. maybe.
But anyhow, that's really cool "A City made of Wood is built in the forest; A City made of Stone is built in the mountains; But a City made of Dreams....is built in heaven."

As far as I understand, they had a disease that killed them when they cloned. Same thing the broker died of (was he a Jove?)
A number of Jove went and found refuge with the sleepers. Sleepers are just Jove who refused to wake up from their intergalactic slumber and instead perfected that realm.
Dust mercs are infused with sleeper tech that the empire's are mining and buying openly from capsuleers.
Tech3 ships are built with heavy usage of sleeper tech, farmed from sleepers in Wh.
Tech 3 ships are essentially Jove tech with empire weapons.
As far as I understand...
MORE SPOILERS.
They aren't said to be dead- only Grious says he is dead himself in Templar One, and the Jovians are still alive.
The Jovians didn't find refuge with the Sleepers- the Sleepers (Architects) and the Jovians branched off from each other, the Architects preferring to make their own virtual paradise as opposed to the real world. They may have created the disease themselves to force more Jovians to join them.
Only the original "Templars" were infused with actual Sleeper implants- they were defective as a result of having used implants literally harvested from sleeper bodies. They now have reverse-engineered implants that aren't actually from Sleepers.
You're right about Tech 3 ships being built with reverse-engineered sleeper tech, but it is not Jovian tech. Look at my bio in-game to see the actual Jovian ships- the sleeper drones Tech 3 ships are made from are a completely different kind of tech.
I read a lot of the lore and would love for CCP to expand on the Jovians once again- maybe with the introduction of player-made stargates, they'll appear again for some reason.

This is a great collection of information on the Jovians and sleepers in general- you should all read it "A City made of Wood is built in the forest; A City made of Stone is built in the mountains; But a City made of Dreams....is built in heaven."

Also, Genolution and X-Sense are Jovian corporations, and operate in empire space- they are proof themselves that the Jovians are still active and very much alive, if you ask me. They're all still united under the Directorate, anyhow. "A City made of Wood is built in the forest; A City made of Stone is built in the mountains; But a City made of Dreams....is built in heaven."

Also, to say something about that Sansha fleet in Jove space:
1) Why would Sansha need a fleet of that size (they had multiple titans and tons of battleships) to infiltrate+take over a place ruled by "weaklings"? And this in itself is perfect evidence to me that the Jovians are alive and thriving.
2) Sansha Slaves are very similar to Jovian "Statics" (a bloodline of theirs), insofar as they opt to use cybernetic implants to improve themselves, instead of genetic modification. I don't think it's too far-fetched to theorize that they might have some sort of connections or dealings with Sansha.
