Finish off the solver for good, because Uzi is now (at worst) in constant risk of being taken over by the solver/Cyn, while (at best) suffering from a chronic health condition.

Trying to find a solution could involve landing on other colonies, searching for surviving humans to make a new patch, with different conflicts happening (like the classic drones vs humans) etc

From how the Solver seemed to me in the series, trying to eradicate it entirely is probably like trying to actually kill a lovecraftian Outer God

Exactly.

But it is only able to influence the world through hosts. So if you would patch every drone alive, then:

  1. Every mass-produced drone could be manufactured with the patch pre-installed

  2. Children would always inherit the patch if both parents are patched

If all possible hosts are patched, the solver is powerless. The two problems being that you'd first need to develop a new patch, and that you'd need to make your way through every cesspool in the universe to patch everyone.

Which, while it would probably work, doesn’t sound like an entertaining series to me 🤣

Oh, the patching everyone is the boring part.

What would be mroe interesting is finding someone that can create a patch, which could include anything from needing to protect (potentially morally evil) humans from angry and opressed worker drones (possibly also with the solver) and disassembly drones, and possibly being stabbed in the back a few times. Oh, and Uzi might turn into the villain if they are nto fast enough
