Actually Kray, this way my idea for Renr:

He was implanted by the Harbingers, but Infra then corrupted him, telling him that in order to fulfil his Harbinger-induced programming to maintain order after they were destroyed, he would have to work with Infra to enforce order. However, Renr breaks free of this influence when Infra starts using Vern as a failsafe. Maintaining his guise as Infra's lieutenant, he secretly starts using his control over the Genodraco (Given by Infra) to gather genetic material of both the Harbingers and alien races, including Etah. This is because he's backstabbing Infra, secretly trying to ressurect the Harbinger race on the isolated planet he's on, but adding in the best traits of the different races, especially Etah's immortality. Infra is in the dark about this until he aquires the Ring of Knowledge, which, for sake of plot, we'll say he aquired only recently when Ahrganot first confronts him.

However, during the Karnas section of Titanic DIscoveries, I plan on rewriting it so that Dominion physically relocates Renr to the third chamber. Etah and Renr duel it out, with Etah winning. However, Dominion sends Renr back before the killing blow, telling Etah that he nearly failed the final test. Cryptic as usual, Dominion doesn't tell Etah how he nearly failed, and the story proceeds as usual.

The final duel between them can take one of two routes:

1) It can be in Ultima Obscurus, as they are attempting to escape the tower as it comes down on them. Think something like the Duel on Mustafar in that the environment is trying to kill them as much as each other.

2) It can be saved until Chaos Crisis, when Etah actually destroys the facility where he was cloning the Harbingers with GSSOC G2's help. If you go back to SFF, I posted a blog sometime ago on how I wanted it to go down originally (Back when Renr was the BBEG instead of Infra). That's about what happens, with some alterations, of course.

Either way, instead of flatout killing Renr, Etah redeems him, helping him to break the Harbinger programming. Unfortunately, Renr is too far down the rabbit hole. He insists the only way for full redemption is for him to die. If we take Option One, he will tell Etah to go, as the tower collapse on him. In Option Two, he will (in his now fully non-organic form) willingly fall back into the fusion core, fully at peace, either way.

It's really a question of when we wrap up his plot point. We can either wrap it up now, or kkeep it as one of the remaining plot points the audience wants to see resolved in Chaos Crisis.

What is with me and long walls of text?
