The Anacreons already lost two craft trying to board, so now they’re trying a different approach - a 10,000 meter jump from their ship to the Invictus. Phara kidnapped the Commander so they could use his Imperial nanobots to access the ship. The ship has jump technology, which the Empire considers a “state secret” that is well protected. It’s jumping randomly, over and over, now that it has no crew.

The ship has been gone for 700 years with no distress signal and only sporadic sightings as she never appears in the same place twice. Even though a lot happened, I kept finding myself feeling distracted as she and Phara continued to spar.įirst, we learned that Phara’s goal was finding the Invictus ship, the crown jewel of the Emperor’s fleet and perhaps the most powerful weapon in the Empire. This week’s episode, however, was a bit of a slower burn in terms of Salvor’s storyline. The death of Salvor’s dad was absolutely gut-wrenching and nearly left me in tears.
