Robert Highfill asks

Robert Highfill Excellent chapter. Since I normally check my Patreon list at least once a day I must have just missed reading this chapter yesterday.

One question thought - how would the Assembly react if all the Y'All that decide to join the Union make a request to receive some gene  treatment that would allow them to reproduce?

Dear Robert.

All laws and regulations of the Union can be circumvented, amended, suspended by an Assembly Vote. Genetic manipulation is not completley ruled out. It is just very heavily regulated ever since the Gene Clone disaster. Not just Earth, but almost all sentient species have or are experimenting with genetic manipulation, with cloning etc. And in most cases it resulted in social and biological problems.

(An Assembly Decision is the highest law of the Union and can overrule any and all other laws, directives and rules.)

I am certain the Science Council would support such a request and after a successful vote, task the Science Corps with coming up with a solution.

Y'All have no gender and non reproductive organs. But a genetic material combination and external reproduction woll be possible.

The Saresii for example reproduce in Birth Centers and not the natural way.

If for example a Human wants to engage in a long term partnership contract with a Shiss and they want offspring. Since these species are incompatible, genetic options are available
