Trance theories (possible spoilers)
Been a while since I’ve been here…anyhoo I’ve just found some major evidence for a variation of Wynne’s theory from the most recent episode of season three (can’t remember the title)

The most recent episode begins with Trance gathering the crew together for some kind of vigil for a “dead” cousin of hers. She won’t say much about him except that he “gave life to many” and a few other vague things to that effect.
A nearbly star is exploded by a Nova bomb so they find out who’s making them and go out to stop them. I won’t say too much else about the plot except how it applies to the Trance theory. Anyway, Trance seems to be taking these exploding stars a little personally and that’s where it clicked.
Trance’s race may be the avatars of stars. I’m not entirely sure about this but there’s a bunch more evidence for it.
-When they near the reactor that produces the–whatever the made up science fictiony element they use to explode stars is called–Trance begins to feel ill.
-What was already said about the eyes and her race being very old and bored.
-Trance’s sun tattoo on her back
-The fact that she’s admitted to being neither alive nor dead, which could apply to avatars, immortals…or stars.
-When she “grows up” she changed her appearance. Stars change state as they age so it could be representing that.
-If stars are running around in human form, who knows where they’re motivations and moralities lie, or what their abilities are so they haven’t really done anything yet that would rule out the possibility.
I’ll keep an eye out for more.
