Reports of My Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Sorry about the long absence. I'll be returning to the painful process of deciphering Mizushou soon.

If you're wondering about the avatar I use on this blog, it's an alien called a Droyne from a roleplaying game called Traveller, and it's from about thirty years ago. The Droyne are, as a rule, shy, and seldom seen. In fact, one normally can't see them at all; they have a racial psionic ability to suggest that they are not really there; they can be seen normally by only those non-Droyne they wish to be seen by. They once had much higher-level technology than they do now, but they are presently no threat. Probably.

Well...

Except that just one of them is immortal, and has all that "lost" high-technology, including the technology to destroy planets. But your chances of running into HIM are almost zero, right?
