Eleven days prior
The ten stealth pods were on their final approach after drifting for two days from the small moon orbiting their target planet. They were ejected from a nullship that flashed out of null space below the moon’s southern pole, taking advantage of the strong magnetic fields in that region to mask the exit flash and avoid detection by the insectoid ships in orbit around the planet. The planet and the moon were currently transiting through a large meteor stream that intersected their orbit around the sun three times a year. The command-pod AI ran billions of calculations per second as it started creating an atmospheric entry plan for the ten pods that would coincide with the trajectories of the numerous particles of dust and debris that would be entering the atmosphere for the next three days.
Selecting an area with a projected high concentration of small-diameter meteors in the next hour, the AI created a maneuvering program for the pods that activated a series of compressed-gas positional thrusters to guide the pods over to the entry point. The AI confirmed the calculations and initiated the final entry program as the ten pods fired their rear gas thrusters one last time and accelerated towards the planet. They were joined by over a thousand pieces of cosmic debris as they entered the atmosphere and streaked across the sky, flaring brightly as they dropped towards the surface with the other meteors.

Humans are Space Orcs
Reddit HFY Stories, Reddit Stories, Reddit Humans are Space Orcs, Reddit Sci-Fi Stories
HFY is a story/series that takes a “human element” in either humanity or an “other” (race/species or object) that exists in a “setting” (future or other world/universe) with varying levels of culture, technology, society and history that help show in some shape or form the potential good or bad for humanity’s race/culture. In These stories Humans are often referred to as Human, Humanity, Deathworlder, Hellwolder in reference to the human planet of origin , Earth. This planet is seen by most of the universe as a place where only death and chaos can survive.
Taken from the FAQ of the r/HFY subreddit.
Humans Are Space Orcs (HASO) or Humans Are (Fantasy Race) Are used as a guide when writing.
In these Stories we normally View humans like the other races view orcs in a Fantasy Novel. We (Humans) share the same characteristics and personalities as orcs. Humans are normally treated as the outsiders and barbarians. Humans tend to be underestimated as well in these stories. Unlike Humanity EFF Yea , these don't always put a positive spin on humans\humanity sometimes looking at the darker side of human and humanity from the perspective of aliens.

"Not bad at all Owen" LMAO
Ooh, change of pace...A nice swerve that keeps things fresh. Loving this story
All of these guys writings are amazing!!! He has a part 13 on his Reddit can’t wait to hear it on here
Nice! This was a good chapter! It was cool to change pace to a more "behind the lines" kind of mission for a bit to mix it up, and I like the though and details of stuff like even bringing scentless food to be as careful as possible.
Using a metor shower to hide their entry into atmo was awesome! 🤩
man i love this story. cant wait for some more space action! ✌️
I mean, assuming you wouldn't know what they're doing since you're training is in other areas is only right, especially since they're on this mission without the training YOU have to just survive out here. If you understand what they're doing, then why the heck are they even HERE doing a job they never signed up and are ill suited for?
Of course, the reason is that the job isn't that difficult to grasp, but the specific applications of it are, and right now those specific applications are what is needed for some information gathering to make this work.
Also, a neat shift in perspective from the past few, as this is a VERY distinct type of story from the others, introducing what is basically the cast of a whole other tale in this singular chapter, that sadly, I don't think we'll ever meet again, but it does help to give a bit more life to the universe as a whole, populating it with those who have their own stories.
The author is still building, but the climax of this arc is hurtling down on us with this action, as a rebellion is brewing on one side inside the swarm, the forces of the Commonwealth are all but broken, causing them to fracture, and many to look to the Union for aide in these trying times, while the Union itself musters for a push to exterminate a power that has now proven they will not share the universe with anyone else.
And that's the shame of it. The Queen is the root cause of it all. Much as she blames the animals, it's obvious that the older swarms refuses to make contact. But she WAS in contact with them. It as simple contact, but it was understandable, and even worked both ways given the Union was able to taunt her back during the first big battle.
Now, her refusal to do more, to understand more, is going to cost her swarm everything, and if that rebelling daughter doesn't replace her in time, it will lead to extinction, as from the other species perspective, they have left no other options, as nothing has indicated this swarm is any more evolved than the one the others put down millennia ago.
Another good one.
🚀🏴☠️🎸
oh nice, another chapter.
great chapter thanks!
Owen you dog
Nice story.
Keep
It up
loosing interest due to long wait between episodes. sometimes I cant remember the last episode when watching new one.
Been listening since the first chapter. This is the first time it appears this is totally AI generated. Definitely the weakest chapter so far.
Sorry you feel that way, but there is nothing AI generated about this, and I put a lot of effort into writing a longer chapter so that it became a longer audio because people were complaining about the videos being too short.
Spoken by someone who has never encountered AI writing.
@@Repulsive-Ardor
Thank you for your storytelling.
This upload is the best so far in respect of speed and clarity.
Don't understand why people complain without constructive feedback
Feels more real the Ai voice is learning cadence, which helps in understanding emotions
@@StraightCracker-sb8fu Thank you, I appreciate it! All I am looking for is feedback so that I can understand why some people are not liking the change in storytelling or other issues, and so far no one has responded so I just have to press on without that knowledge.
@@Repulsive-Ardorthank you!!! I can’t wait for the next chapter. Ignore this fool
More childish bravado.
