Hilarious XD But guys never go into bear territory when they're in a 'torpor', they DO NOT hibernate like mice or squirrels, they just sleep deeply and the sound of your footsteps in the snow would be enough to wake them. Boy! Ever been grumpy after being woken too early in the morning? Now try an 8-900 pound male Grizzly and he's ... starving. Ah such happy times on our Deathworld!
Author here! I just wanted to say that NetNarrator has again done amazing work on what is one of my most long running and most ambitious stories. This series is one that I'm still invested in even after all this time, and that's why it remains one of the series that I update consistently and wish to see through to the end! I hope you guys enjoy the story and once again I would like to give a big thank you to NetNarrator for bringing this story to life with his narration! Thank you for listening and thank you for all the comments! :D
The fact that humans are still around in 3300AD... should bode well, if we can survive that long we should be fine. Not to mention they plan to be able to stand guard for at least tens of thousands of years.

"Hey, that's not my room." "Oh, but all my stuff is here and everything is much cleaner than usual after hibernation." "What hotel is this and how can i make reservations for my next hibernation?"
That last part hits me hard. I lived for a good part of my entire life not knowing if I was going to wake up the next day and multiple times I almost didn't. I know people that didn't make it and some I failed to save. I livid in Alaska and the power would would go out in the middle of winter as it was -40*F and wind ripped trees down all the time. I moved away just a few weeks ago but I am still not used to feeling safe as I rest. It hurts but yet feels amazing to not have to worry anymore about freezing to death or having to check up on another just to find them dead in bed by having frozen to death. I am scarred yet hopeful of what is to come. I have laid too many to rest. I didn't think I would have to explain wood stoves and how they work to people as a back up heating source but I forgot that I am communicating with people and most don't actually know about Alaska or wood stoves. Let me explain. Many houses have fire places as the main or a back up heat source but remember not all places have them and the places that do needs people to operate them. Here are the steps to get the fire place started. 1 You need to have, during the summer, stocked up on chopped wood and have them properly stored. 2 You must realize that the heat went out at some point in time. 3 Make a fire in the fireplace. This is what usually happens but as I pointed out in the first paragraph they are usually found in bed. As they are asleep they are unable properly react to the situation and the cold gets to them. Most of the time the cold wakes them up but to wake up to the cold it requires you to be in good heath and properly fed. Horrible things happen without warning. Just because people know better doesn't mean that things don't happen. If people can properly react then nothing happens but if people don't then they die even if they know what to do like in 2021 in Texas were over 200 people died from a winter storm. Remember I also stated that I would check up on other people. I have only found a few people dead in bed from the cold and they were, all but one person, elderly people who were not in the best of health. The 20 year old that I found dead had taken medicine to help him sleep. Unfortunately it cause him to never wake up again. Stuff happens and we just got to move forward,
So this is how Humanities 'Forever War' starts. Whoever did what they did to the narrator's species is for a world of hurt. As the one species that needs no hibernation just a few hours of sleep is mad and we decided they are our next prey to be hunted into extinction. It's not like we haven't done it before. Just ask any Sabertooth Tiger or Dire Wolf. Oh, right. We hunted the Sabertooth into oblivion and turned the Dire Wolfs into our pets. Humanity, the spaces that told a Deathworld, We are NOT Prey and for trying to make us so. You're going to PAY!
Modern dogs are descended from the same ancestors as grey wolves. More recent genetic evidence suggests that dire wolves weren’t actually wolves, ie did not belong to the genus Canis; instead, they belonged to the extinct genus Aenocyon, and covergently evolved to look and act similar to Canis species because they were somewhat related and filled the same niches.
Yeah... But then again it still depends on the individual/organization. Just like how there is “Scientific Revisionist” and “Radical Purifiers” in Vanaran society, Humanity is not a monolith of all consuming cruelty. Even in our time there are people who dedicate their whole life for other organism wellbeing, receiving nothing in return but only a sense of fulfillment. Also the humans that made contact are hundreds/millions of years into the future, their mindset might be different than in our age.
@@anonymouswhite7957 : No, the aliens watched as dinosaurs evolved, then killed them with an asteroid. The humans entered the hibernation chamber in 3392 A.D.. So we have a little more than 1300 years from NOW to get into space.
@@Nixonitus i think humans would very rapidly blow the aliens out of the water. they have such insanely long sleep cycles and their lifetimes are so long their tech progress is obviously insanely slow because they dont have much incentive, we only have decades, theres no time to fuck around
Aliens " no life can evolve without the need for hibernation " Earth * exists * Aliens * destroys life on earth* " no life can evolve without the need for hibernation " Me thinks their bias is showing
''how coulda new model emerge after 200 million years!'' also... ''we killed of versions of this before'' ...more like it keeps being an alternative but some civilizations rather then consider a different structure for stability... kept purging it out of fear to lose the 'king of the hill' spot... but well... hehehehe.... you sleep long , and nature go BRRRRR
I'm 200% sure that we would pillage the heck out of whatever technology and equipment that they may have the moment they all went to sleep. When you find the dragon asleep, you try and pocket something from his hoard, not sing him a lullaby lol
Funny little thing, this isn't hibernation, it's torpor. Hibernation isn't nonstop sleep, it's just excessive inactivity. Hibernating bears wake up all the time to reposition themselves, sometimes head out to look around for something to eat. Some leftover berries or a dead carcass or whatever. Torpor is when an animal enters a death-like state for an extended period of time, like what tardigrades can do.
The inability of a sapient* to develop technology would be a hard block on actually becoming starfaring though. So these guys wouldn’t be interested in a species of swimming atechnic poets.
I like the concept of a galactic hiberbation sequence. Reminds me of Robin Hobbs dragon cocoons waiting for the right circumstances, but being found by humans and cut up as wood, leading to live ships.
I started listening to this one over on grey voices channel and now hearing it here. it feels... idk. strange. I love this series. cant listen to it here tho. gonna leave it up in the bg and give engagement for them sweet internet points.
I've got that with the Isekai one, listened to that one a few years ago as a daily basis thing on another channel, but still happy more people are covering it
Why would you all go into hibernation together if you can CHOOSE when to hibernate and how long? Surely a civilization would set up a rotation schedule to ensure the survival of the civilization?
Where would I find the rest of this on Reddit? I have not been very lucky on finding things on Reddit. We are the watchers in the dark. We are the ever glowing spark. Within your slumber in the deep, within your ever dream of sleep. When we call, will you not Hark? Will you not rise, for you to keep?
First of all this would be a nice solution for what to do if one where immortal if stuff always gets lost there always something to do. THis would also be a funny solution to the fermi paradox where are all the aliens. They are asleep.
Hibernation is interesting and alien for the humans concept. I wonder why they have to hibernate all at the same time. Why they do not change so one half always will by watching
All aliens Hibernate its normal. Humans actually we discovered that its not normal and we are here to save you. Sleepy aliens: what how can tha ZZZZZzzz
well, small mitake there. 150 000 years ago, modern human already existed, as well as other species such as erectus and neandertal, which bear comparable intelligence to us. And we already mastered stone tools etc. Making the alien wake up 2, 5 or 14 millions years ago would've been much better for that.
Man this is why I like our humanity like this way they can be really really dangerous fierce fighters but also weak good minded but also evil at the same time and can be on the other side guardian angels watch over you protective as well to that’s why I like it and don’t like it at the same time one they’re super evil and also they can be guardian angels and be fear of fighters

Those who were born on Hell herself are as vengeful as their mother.
Who's a good former predator? _Who's a good former predator??_ Yes, YOU are, Mr. Fluffles! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
No, sabertooth tigers and dire wolves died because they were too big and couldn't find enough food to survive the ice age. Or so the theory goes.
Modern dogs are descended from the same ancestors as grey wolves. More recent genetic evidence suggests that dire wolves weren’t actually wolves, ie did not belong to the genus Canis; instead, they belonged to the extinct genus Aenocyon, and covergently evolved to look and act similar to Canis species because they were somewhat related and filled the same niches.
