You have decided on the features and traits you are going to extensively gene-mod into the Migrators. They will have longer tails and faster swimming ability, body markings and increased visual diversity, and the ability to adapt and absorb certain toxins. All in all, the Migrators will be much different now. Beyond them being a bit sleeker and more adapted to warmer waters and more active lifestyles; a secondary effect of this mutation seems to be an enhanced development of the jaw and especially large fangs; probably used to crush shellfish or break through ice-flows. Strangely, this mutation doesn't seem to come from any of your meddling, and inherent to the Migrators when climes warm.
Naturally, given their glacially slow rate of reproduction, it will take some time for these effects to fully manifest in the Migrator gene pool. Hopefully, a future Supreme can benefit from them as more full and active citizens, instead of curiosities.
In the meanwhile, you contact Usis Nanonae, your colleague and fellow candidate for Supremacy, and ask him about his progress on his special project. He tells you the Urgi bio-bots are ready. Excellent.
”Hegemonic control always prefers in-person meetings for sensitive things like this. I do hope there's no hard feelings... you know, for my father picking me over you.”
“Not at all, your Majesty. Better you then that fish, for certain.”
”I uhh... expected your workshop to be more... spy related. If I can be honest. I thought you'd be a little more focused on the craft.”
The smaller Jaxtian doesn't seem to want to say the first thing that came to his mind, probably because it wasn't a proper response for the Supreme Ruler.
“No, your Majesty, that is already taken care of. I had the biobots ready during your Father's reign, but lacked the operational go ahead for actually infiltrating their society or influencing things. We were both a bit young for that kind of thing anyway, at the time.”
”So you've been spending the time since then... playing with fruit?”
