Wait, the Antaeus Fleet is real? I thought it was just a scary story we told each other to freak sis out.

CYBERNETIC ORGANISM COLLECTIVE
It's not real.
Ships that are destroyed and come back as twisted copies of themselves? Ships that break apart to reveal another warship trapped inside like a bug in amber?
It's a ghost story. Nothing more. We just tell each other about it to scare each other. It's a ghost story. Like the IRS.

It's just a scary story to explain what happened during the Mantid War.

CYBERNETIC ORGANISM COLLECTIVE
Yeah, you know, one of those "I know a guy who knows a guy who totally knew this Marine who ended up as part of the shipboard compliment of the Warspite."
It's just ghost stories we use to scare each other.
