Yeah I also think that they would control the population, maybe letting it decline to a more sustainable level over some decades and have a steady state of new babies in some years time. But what if a baby is immune? :D I’ll let this overspeculation sit for a while…
Bait taken.
Assuming the hive doesn't intentionally procreate: All the hive women Koumba is getting with....is the hive making sure they're all on birth control? A potential plot point is one or more of them becoming pregnant and having an immune baby (inherited from Koumba).
Definitely on some form of birth control, even if it’s just cycling out women as they approach their fertility window?
Given Lakshmi is one of the immune and her son isn’t, I don’t think that inheriting immunity is a major risk.
Such baby would be groomed to join the Hive in future. If everything goes right few years later they would happily get plurbed.
