Deconstruction of Falling Stars and the future of the human race (spoilers)

[vorlonlovechild]

We make the step together, Leave the universe together to explore beyond the rim, and the Narn & Centauri stay behind to look after the younger races..They evolve into the equivelent of the Vorlons and Shadows and fight it out over billions of years till the next set of races assend and we all leave the galaxy to have a really big party at Loriens place.

No point in leaving the galaxy; stars go nova, it only affects the immediate vicinity (big as that is).

Tell that to Ambassador Spock. :rommie:

...and the Narn & Centauri stay behind to look after the younger races..They evolve into the equivelent of the Vorlons and Shadows....

Except jms has said that the Narn and the Centauri don't reach First One-level status.

My bold. I suspect that was a typing error and you meant Galaxy? There's nothing to suggest the Centauri and Narn evolve to become like the Vorlons or Shadows. Here's something of note on the matter:

#: 18875 S5/Seas. 5 SPOILERS

Sb: #18808-#>> Future First Ones<<
Fm: J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI

The Minbari eventually make it; the Narn and Centauri do not. They
don't die out, they just don't hit a state of First One-ishness, which is darn
close to immortality (barring violence).
