Liran seemed to be considering the implications, but Alex could tell this was news to him.
Alex continued speaking.
"I don't know exactly how they did it, but I could feel it when I entered this area. It was like the space itself was sealed off until recently, preventing anything from entering or leaving through anything to do with the spatial element. The lock must have just been lifted, or we probably wouldn't even be having this conversation either."
Liran frowned, clearly troubled by the revelation.
"If they have the ability or technology to create a spatial lock that strong, they could be planning something big. With enough time and planning, maybe they could even lock down the entire star system!"
It seemed Liran had thought bigger than Alex had considering this situation.
