Pure guess, but I’m guessing this refers to the locations of the two known human-world wormholes. One is “north” of Catia’s equator, and hence in their northern sky, the other is in their southern sky. Which makes me wonder what the relationship is between the central star of a system, like Sol, and its wormholes. They obviously move with it as it orbits the galactic center, but they can’t be in the same kind of orbit a planet or asteroid would be, or they would not always stay ‘north’ or ‘south’ of the ecliptic, or any given planet’s equator. They would either be ON the ecliptic or they’d move north and south of it as they orbited. So, they must be in some sort of fixed-position relationship with the star. Since this is speculative physics anyway, I don’t have a real problem with that, but it makes me wonder. Just like I wonder if there’s not more than one wormhole in the Sol system. The Empire only knows of one, and the other humans didn’t even know there WAS a Sol system until they went there.
Actually, they know of two. The one leading to Catian space,
and the one leading to Dragon space.
They haven’t located the Dragon wormhole yet, but they’re looking.
Wormholes show up on mass detectors, which are offshoots of
Grav technology.
Then, the Empire has an edge on finding them over other humans, and probably the other races as well. There might even be some undetected and hence unexplored ones in Catian space. Not likely, but possible. It could be amusing if the Empire finds a second wormhole in the Sol system, and tries it before the dragons can stop them, and it’s NOT the one to dragon space at all, possibly even unknown to the dragons, which is part of why they didn’t warn them away. That could be very UN-amusing too.

Alan threw at least one of his hooks away, and doesn’t appear to be carrying anything else. Miral has a dagger, stronger muscle and bone, and whatever is in those pouches.
alan dropped both rat hooks.. the other is off by his knee.. and the belt knife might be an oops, (first panel , right hip) or it’s just the holster ,, cuz she would have to drop the belt, with every thing else.. ( an just did not want to edit out the handle..)
‘Northern Worlds’
‘Southern Worlds’
I almost shook my head.
But then I remembered that my own Logos have a Southern Flight and Northern Flight. One sides with Humans, the other, with the Lir….

The pouches were energy drinks and other stuff, no extra weapons.
Did you get my email to your work address?
