Getting close to the finish line now. After, I'll still need to do a full reread, but my biggest challenge was bringing us to two revelations: 1) my "Thucydides" telling the story of a war as if it had been started by "great nations"... only to realize that another principle sparked it all along (as per real history), & 2) a lone crew trying to protect its better nature in that war of "great nations"--only to learn how hard it is to keep nationalist urges at bay.

I *think* I've pulled it off. 🤞
