Once again you've locked onto an important aspect of the story. The 'getting along' leads to happenings that will dumbfound the Mparntwe Council.Nope! Not Turaku at all. A few more chapters yet before that particular revelation.

He's not the first AI. There are quite a number of them in existence at the time of Mirri and Jarra, but he IS the first to have complete independence from government or other control - which makes him unique.

Mparntwe Chapter 8. *** "I am very pleased to meet you, Jarra, and I wish to thank you for starting my project. Durrebar informs me that you are the reason I am here. My name is Yirgella. Welcome to Alkere" Yesterday had been the official time for full initiation of all the processors, databases, and electronics for the AI project and Jarra had missed it because of a maths evaluation he couldn't skip. His disappointment had changed to excitement when he received a message saying everything wa

It never rains but it pours!

lol - that was fun - even though it took 15 chapters to get there. Once again your chapter was notable for its imagery, sometimes vivid, sometimes subtle and gentle.
-
Whoo! Now I'm even more impressed.

OMG! -
Is that flower real? It looks real but then it doesn't because of the 4X symmetry and the total perfection.
-
Yes, power and greed are strong forces, and Jarra's achievements will increasingly make him more noticed.Thank goodness he has such wonderful support.
-
Mirri provides a number of special moments throughout the story - this one is quite significant.
-
Yes, we're moving through the years fairly rapidly. I think some coming events will slow that down a bit.
-
There will be more info about the population growth at some stage.Lol - don't be sad for Mirri - he's a very happy chappy.

Mparntwe Chapter 7. *** Darri laughed as he talked with Baradin. "Don't you dare take him anywhere for at least another six months. I've been run off my feet trying to keep up with all his new interests." "Six months? You picked that well. I have a trip to Cape York in roughly that time-frame and since they loved Carnarvon so much I'm planning to take them again. Karmai can guide them to see how the Great Barrier Reef is regenerating." "And that will probably bring on a study about the life

Absolutely stunning!!!

That would be a nerve wracking time waiting in the ER. And that's great news about the healing - medical advances are mind boggling. Good for you. You are certainly taking some major steps for your health. Catheters into your bladder are no fun as a new experience. I almost fainted. - lol - then had to self administer twice a day for over a year. Weight control is a nightmare of effort but vastly important with diabetes. Hey! That walking is good in a zillion other ways too. All the best for 2015.

Very interesting. I don't think Malls even existed in Australia when I was a teenager - maybe the big cities had some. Doing things together is a foundation for any relationship and a way to help understand differences in each others viewpoints and the Mall adventure worked well for both the boys. 'Catch you cats on the flip side', -that made me smile. Evidently vinyl is making a bit of a comeback.

Lol - I loved the muddy socks imagery. Your mind pictures are a real plus.
-
Hmm! - you just might win that bet - but don't hold your breath. There will be four or five more chapters at least before any linkage becomes apparent.
-
There will be a few more links to Attunga, mostly fairly tenuous because of the 100 year time difference. They have to be there though because the stories include major events of the Diaspora. (The Valley Of The Eagles is the start of a significant link to Attunga.)

Losing a true friend is the human version of the black hole the scientists talk about. My thoughts are with you.

Mparntwe Chapter 6. *** Mirri tickled Jarra's ear lobe with his eagle feather to draw attention away from the Information System. "It's explore time and we're going to our new place." Jarra dodged the feather a few more times while he closed down then made Mirri laugh by taking it and returning the tickles. Normally Mirri would want to prolong this but his anticipation for the new exploring place was too strong and he passed across the little travel pack which Jarra always carried. "Will we
