So I've been thinking the Warmind would be the end all be all, and I'll try to be short and to the point.
It has to predict all threats to humanity. It has to be accurate, it's simulations have to be exact, to the point there is no difference between reality and the simulations. I tried to go into detail, but it started to interfere with other things I wanted to do.
So, what I'm saying is what if the Warmind had worked out all possible threats and had a solution to them all. To me he would be the greatest threat, being able to simulate reality...like the Ishtar Team encountered...what if he just decided to turn it off, or started enacting the problems into reality. Did it have a solution to beat itself? I mean there was a child version of itself, it did help the Ishtar Team get "out" of the simulation (I think it was more accepting the simulation).
Edit: didn't really end the way I wanted, it would have been cool to understand what caused us to be paracausal, I know hive stuff, but the reason it allowed that to exist. Either that or facing off with the "evil" version of the Warmind. I want to explore the how.
We are on nine, heading to ten in lightfall, and hopefully see the design that flummoxed in the final shape. Insight, a phylactery or was it phage, and what happened when they succeeded.

It was the only thing powerful enough to have a chance protecting the team. It helped them disperse their digital copies into the network. Early D1 lore did suggest an AI theory for the Darkness and there was clues to a possible “generic” reason for paracausal power instead of gods fiddling with cosmic rules. Ghost Fragment: The Traveler “It feels like lead and [u]neutronium[/u] and electroweak matter fashioned into a moon-sized ball that you must carry as you move. “ That’s a science fiction material, found inside stars, that can bend reality. Certainly sets up the possibility. Stirred up some debate at the time, that material has been only mentioned once since then, in passing as something Calus ate. The takeaway from that; tastes like fudge.
