No Failsafe Season
No Failsafe · The Failsafe Announcement · no-failsafe
The revelation that this season has no failsafe, leaving the galaxy braced for whatever the AI does next.
Story so far
Odette cites it as the defining fact of the moment at the warlord council: "With the news that there will be no failsafe, everyone is teetering on the edge of the horizon waiting to see what the AI will next throw at both the crawlers and the unwitting world leaders who've found themselves fighting for their very lives."
She pairs it with the early Scolopendra warning and The AI having officially gone primal ahead of schedule as evidence that the season has slipped its normal constraints—that this season, anything is on the table.
