It took Jyslin only a few minutes/hours to subdue the entire population that they'd left behind in the reserve, and when the Faey first invaded Earth, the mundane humans couldn't even attempt a rebellion.
If the new Karinne was primarily human, there wouldn't be much of a chance of a rival house running all over them, even continuing the slaving. The telepathic humans could definitely repopulate the house, but as of right now, the only ones we know about (and forgive me if I've forgotten any) are Jason, Tim, Temika, and the boy that they grabbed from NYC. They never had a chance to meet with the one from Scotland, remember. And at the last update, we still don't know if the boy from NYC had expressed yet. So we have Tim, Temika, and Jason. Jason is the Grand Duke, and Tim and Temika could be a Duchess and a Duke, or some other lower rank noble, but even then, you only have three human royals. Even if you figure in the spouses of those, you're not adding a whole lot. Tim has Symone, and Jason has Jyslin, so you add two. Myleena makes a sixth, but even then its incredibly risky. Assassins could easily eliminate six people, and then the house is no more. If you bring a non-telepath into the mix, well, you eliminate the six, then control the non-telepath. Then the slaving and everything continues.
When you look at it, all the other noble houses have a hundred or so people in line for the house throne. Even the Empress herself. That continuity is vital to the survival of the house. No nobles, no house. So once Jason comes out to the Empress as Grand Duke Karinne, he will have to be EXTREMELY careful. It may be illegal for houses to do that kind of thing, but Symone told us earlier that it happens anyway. And someone has already tried to assassinate Kumi, so we know it's possible to have someone assassinated.
That's why he needs to build up his numbers--for self preservation and the protection of his house. Unless he can afford to hire soldiers. Mercs are usually loyal to the highest bidder, but here Jason has an advantage. If he can "hire" Kimdori to be his soldiers, he would have protection. And since when he "hired" Kate as a spy, they didn't charge him. So they may not charge him this time either, since he's a cousin.
there are also 233 known House Karrine desendants that the Kimdori talked about. does this number include humans on Earth or are these All on the Faey side of the house?
and Rember the Kimdori are still protecting the secret of the planet by making any ships that attempt to enter or get near.... dissapear.
I can also see there are al least 9 imperial marines that are going to become apart of House Karrine. and thgere could be several others as well remember Jason is seen as a Romantic hero to a lot of the Faey commoners right now. and he's seen as being Loyal to his people as well
Once it comes out hes No just a Human but Faey as well he could gain a lot of Followers just from that.
Remember what the gal from INN said
After the interview she commented to the anchor that she had been very impressed meeting Jason in person. “He’s just as charismatic in person,” she said with a smile. “A very kind and thoughtful young man, with a sense of purpose about him that I noticed immediately. He’s a man that believes in what he’s doing with all his heart. Some may call him a rebel or even a murderer, but he truly believes that he’s fighting for the betterment of his people.” “He won’t be doing much fighting from a hospital bed in the medical annex,” the anchor tittered with a grin.
Now i know some would say that other house might try to slip spy or assassin's in ....but remember who he has that will be doing his Loyality testing ....Kimdori!
Oh and the Nine Marines ....they almost have to become Members of House Karrine or have their memorys of this Wiped. they have seen things Jason and the Kimdori wouldn't want known.
and then there is Yana too
He gave her a startled look. “That’s, er, a personal question, Yana.”
“No, what was it like to, you know, do it,” she asked, touching his temple with her finger meaningfully. “Boys won’t let me do it, they’re afraid of me,” she told him in a quiet voice. “They’re afraid I’m too strong for them, that I might hurt them. But you and Jyslin are both so strong, almost as strong as me, I was curious how you did it without, well, hurting yourselves. You know?”
He laughed nervously. “Oh, that. Well, we were just careful, that’s all,” he told her. “I trusted that Jyslin wouldn’t hurt us.”
She chewed on the end of her finger absently. I wish other boys believed that, she told him. I’ve always wanted to try it, but boys are scared of me.
Well, don’t look at me, he warned.
She looked up at him, then giggled. Of course not, you silly. If we did that, Jyslin would kill both of us. I was just hoping you could, like, you know, explain how you did it without hurting yourselves, so I could explain it to a boy. I guess you wouldn’t be scared of it, though. You and Jyslin are almost equally strong, so there’s no huge gap there to intimidate you.
I didn’t realize Faey men were afraid of women like that.
Well, they’re afraid of me, she fretted. They say I’m too strong, and I’ll hurt them. You know, get lost in it and burn out their brains or something silly like that. They’re afraid of opening themselves up like that to me, you know, no defenses.
Well, sounds to me like you just need to find a guy that trusts you.
You make it sound so easy, she accused. It’s not like I’ll ever find a guy like you, either.
Why not?
and
My scans indicate that the young Faey female Jason’s memory designates as Private Yana would be a prime candidate for such a breeding partner. My scans indicate she is gifted in talent, on par with a Karinne female.]
I think we could very well see another human/Karrine and Faey bonding in the future. After all she is the Youngest in the Squad and we do have a Young man on earth that should be expressing himself soon ?
One that just might not be afraid of her?
An other possiability as well one that Fel put into our heads and we don't know much about just yet
Strong, but not as strong as me, he answered. Though Temika is really strong, up to a Marine’s standard. Maybe you’re right there, Yana, maybe children from a human and a Faey are very strong natural telepaths
Maybe this is also one of those Worse things Zaa hinted at. House Trillane is running it's own version of a generations program using humans as breeding stock.
Also with all the
OR could they be making
"Soilent Green" ?
But i'll leave you all one more quote and mystery to ponder <Evil Grin>
She pulled her hand up between them and opened it. Within her furry palm was the signet ring of the Karinnes.
“This is what I sent you here to recover, Jason. Nothing else. This is the greatest treasure on Karis. This ring gives you the fealty of the CBIM, and that is a powerful, powerful thing. It marks you as the lord of this planet. Everything here belongs to you, and to you alone.
