"No, right now, I have ships doing some research on his shields, using..."<br/><br/>He paused, and gave her a calculating look, before continuing. "You know what? I won't bore you with science details. Basically, they are exhaustively testing the shields, but all of them have been failures. I THINK it has something to do with the ships coming through the portal to bypass the shield. But while I do not think taking the shield down is the best option, CURRENTLY, I do think we should wait before doing something... permanent and vicious. At least until the rest of the Death Guard finishes transitioning, and the Shadow Stalkers are found. Before that, I doubt we can stand against the Blades, and I KNOW we can't against Barid's elites. Let alone the lieutenants and himself."<br/><br/>He sighed, and rubbed his forehead. "There isn't a good option Ama, not right now. So I wait until there is a better one that doesn't involve getting wiped out before I can do anything."<br/><br/>He gave her a ghost of a smile. "You didn't hear the shock when I was advocating patience in dealing with Barid. My journey was useful for that, even if I would rather have skipped it entirely."
