AN: This is the most extensive story I have ever written. I consulted more sources than I did for all the papers I wrote during my second year of University. It kept me up late at night and woke me up early in the morning. I loved and hated it alternately. There’s enough behind the scenes information to write an appendix or two.
And it all comes from one day at work when no one came into the store for four hours, and I said to myself, “You know, if the Goa’uld are genetically evil, why are there Tok’ra?”. And then it was off to the races.
Thanks to soclose, who betaed, and put up with months of my coming on MSN and spamming her with various tidbits of ancient culture and modern genetics.
Disclaimer: I don’t own Stargate. I don’t even own action figures. Wait. There are action figures? Where do I get them?
Spoilers: I started keeping a list of episodes. And then I lost it. So off the top of my head and in no particular order, Absolute Power, Heroes, Chimera, The Curse, Need, Cure, Secrets, Crossroads, Seth, Forever in a Day, Full Circle, The Lost City II, probably Thor’s Hammer if we’re being picky, um, I think that’s it. Oh, and the Movie.
A Note About The Universe
This universe has the following parameters:
1. Anubis is dead, Jack is fine
2. None of the season eight promotions have taken place
3. Janet is dead
4. Hammond is in charge
5. The ‘Gate on Abydos is gone, but the foundations of the pyramid are still more or less (likely less) intact.
6. The Tok’ra still have their alliance with Earth
And I think that pretty much covers it. On to the good stuff!
