Mutually Assured Destruction, fear weapons. When has that sort of thinking ever worked for more than a few years?

2019-06-09 05:21:41 +0000 UTCWhat makes Bombs so effective is the sheer fear of their fury being unleashed . . . because once you let one off the chain, it doesn't leave anything behind worth having for several hundred years. This old one and it's rocket can offer numerous fields of research . . . but in a time when some kind of controlling fact needs to be brought to the table . . . better to place bets on the more dangerous prospect first then the more productive ones after threats are put in check. Though how the "Fires of Old" will play in this situation is anybody's guess . . . especially sense the "Church" has kept the existence of the "Earlier Earth" so hush-hush.

Except... no one in their right mind will believe he has something that powerful until it's demonstrated. Does he have a target in mind?
