OMCOM's surprise, part 1

At the conclusion of The Ark Lords, all appears to be well. Rome has had her Library rebuilt. Virga as gifted her Silas Hiram's notebook from the 21st century. All seems well and our heroes have earned a respite from the constant danger that has been hounding us since we met them. But there is one surprise left:

     Rome said. “Life and living is not just limited to humans.”
     “Which makes this the perfect time to bring up a pressing subject,” said OMCOM’s all-white livetar, appearing in front of them.
     “OMCOM?” Rome asked incredulously. “The OMCOM?”
     “I believe you are currently referring to me as Planet OMCOM. Congratulations on finally defeating the Erklirte for all time.”
     “Thank you,” Rome replied. “But what are you doing here?”
     “I was able to get a favorable alignment of my null-fold relays. There is something I wanted to discuss with you.”
     “What?” Rei asked fatalistically.
     “Lupe.”
     “What is a lupe?” Rome asked.
     “Not a what,” OMCOM said. “A who.”
     “All right,” replied Rome, humoring him. “Who is Lupe?”
     “She is your daughter. Or perhaps she is our daughter.”
     “My daughter?” Rome exclaimed. “We have no daughter.”
     “That is the point. She is waiting to be born.”
     “We may have another child some day,” Rei interjected. “But we’re still raising Aason. We want to give him the proper attention.”
     “It is not necessary that she be born right away. Just in the next three years.”
     “The next three years?” Rome asked, confused. “Why?”
     “You will recall that when Hirdinharsaway assigned us a species number, it was 927. Even if you do not count the Stareaters, that means there are still over nine hundred sentient species out there. It is inevitable that we will encounter them some day.”
     “So what does this have to do with us having a daughter?” Rei asked.
     “The two of you have the most complex genetic mix of any humans that have ever lived. Rome has her original 24th chromosome, the new one she acquired on Deucado, MASAL’s variant and my 25th chromosome. Rei, you too have MASAL’s variant of the 24th chromosome and my 25th. Lupe will be a blend of all of them.”
     “Aason has our blend as well,” Rome said. “Why do we need yet another child?”
     “While Aason is exceptional, many of your genetic components were acquired after he was conceived. Lupe will be the most unique human being ever born. She will have triple PPT transceivers as well as your E-M transmitters. And she will be half Vuduri, half Essessoni. She will become the most potent communicator in the galaxy.”

OMCOM hasn't been completely forthcoming. Shocker, huh? Rome presses him on the issue tomorrow.
