The Ring of Charon the-1
Page 45
When the Caller Ring detects a burst of controlled gravitic energy, it performs its basic function—opening a gravitic contact, a Virtual Black Hole transit pair, linking it to its home Dyson Sphere. The Caller Ring then sends a pulsed-gravity-wave signal to the Worldeater chrysalides sleeping in the star system.
Linked to the home Dyson Sphere, the Caller Ring attempts to get the life-bearing world out of harm’s way by shifting it to the artificial star system surrounding the home Sphere. If the Sphere initiated the call, or if it has at least some surplus of energy available, it permits the transit to take place. Earth’s sudden arrival is not the first unplanned grab of a world—the Dyson Sphere knows how to handle such things.
As soon as possible, the Sphere shifts an Anchor black hole through the temporary Virtual Black Hole, providing a more powerful and stable link to the home Sphere.
The Multisystem of habitable worlds orbiting the home Dyson Sphere can be thought of as a field lying fallow. The Charonians accumulate life-supporting planets that can be sent to where they are needed.
If a seedship has visited several unsuitable solar systems and is near the end of its operational life when it arrives at yet another lifeless system, it can call the home Dyson Sphere and give up the last of its energy to have one of the stockpiled worlds shifted to an otherwise suitable solar system. Replaced by a new seedship shifted in with the new world, the life cycle can then proceed.
The Dyson Sphere begins to beam energy through the Caller Ring. The awakening chrysalides emerge from their long sleep as adult Worldeaters. Their robotic components link with the Caller Ring and begin to absorb power. The Worldeaters head toward the major worlds of the solar system and start ripping them to shreds, forming them into the materials needed to form a new Dyson Sphere. Their work can take hundreds or thousands of years, but at its end, a new Sphere is ready, able to breed and build its own seedships and begin construction of its own empire of captive worlds.
