Good story but metal in space doesn't rust.

[@walterf1205]

Space rust?

[@ancientbuilds3764]

Hmmm. You know things can't rust in space right?

[@KaasSchaaf666]

and also: you haven't told anyone about the device yet, how can your opponents get wind of it?

[@tonyv8925]

Uh, hold on a minute. If she is alone, how did all these opponents know what she had? Did you skip a chapter?

[@privateperson5054]

It was a plot ton, from an ancient ship.

[@markschneider8815]

It's a temporal device, who knows where and when it has made an appearance?

[@davidchapman8054]

So, how did the universe hear of the artifact?

[@EllenCrawford-h1f]

Been thinking the same thing for awhile now

[@privateperson5054]

Concept is ok. Story is bad
