The protecters on "Pak", you mean. TYhe protectors on "Home" were human
protectors.

Not in protector.

Probably you misread the whole of protector. The only breeders that died in
the first part were Phsstpok's own clan. The rest were alive & well.

Actually we know what happened to Pak and to Truesdale's fleet! They were caught
in the Core explosion. Remember they only had slow sublight ramjets, so by the
time they was the light (har) it was too late. Of course this conflicts with
Down in Flames, but in that case tha Tnuctipun ate them.
