So ... maybe I'm just forgetting or missing something, but if Tukoss is dead ...
(1) Why didn't the Drifters collect his body? They've been collecting ours.
(2) Where did those messages he seemed to have sent come from? |

Okay, now this, combined with the question of why the Drifters didn't collect it immediately, begins to sound as though someone showed us all that body on purpose. |

Hadn't gotten around to it for ... how many months?
For at least part of which, they were actively collecting biomass? |

Remember when on the time line his podding took place, something like a full year ago, the corpse collection was relatively recent and not even the initial seeker appearances were documented as collecting corpses.
The same could be true of the sleeper structures, that they raided them for implants or other technology then later discovered the need for additional biomass but had already damaged the corpses by then.
That is possible. But in combination with the probably-fake Tukoss messages, calling for delivery of Jovian remains, and the more recent fragmented ones, which may also have been fake, or else written by something very interesting ...
... can we really say it is a likely coincidence that the Drifters left a very specific frozen corpse adrift in one of their strongholds for a year? That it never drifted further away? That they didn't so much as reel it in to inspect the implants and piloting rig?
I'd be interested in people's thoughts on the following assumption set, since it seems to me like the most intriguing of our set of options:
1. Assume that the Tukoss corpse is real, and died when it appears likely it died.
2. Assume that the damaged Tukoss messages are also real. |
