[4.4 Raid Spoilers] Omega's Origin Is Nuts

[Zohar_Lahar]

I just found something rather interesting in the lorebook (which may also be in the sightseeing log) - at the end of the page on Azys Lla:



Wait what.

"Facilitate communication over the massive distances between stars."

The Allagans were doing what?

And who were they communicating with?

Maybe they were trying to find Omega's homeworld.

Maybe Xande in a moment of lucidity also thought that why conquering a single planet when there are more to discover and conquer? but then went all BWUAHAHAHAHAH I'LL DESTROY EVERYTHING

[LineageRazor]

Maybe they were trying to find Omega's homeworld.

That's an excellent thought, that I had never considered. Yes, even if the Allagans never did any deep space exploration, they WERE communicating with Omega, and thus likely learned that it was from another star. It's not at all unlikely that they put some research into trying to contact Omega's homeworld. Given how long Omega had been traveling (and the thousands of years it was likely dormant before the Allagans revived it), and given that it was a civilization that was willing to create murder machines like Omega, there's no guarantee that there was anyone still there able to receive the transmissions - or, if there was, that they still had equipment capable of receiving the kind of signals that Omega would have taught the Allagans to use...
