I’ve seen an interesting theory floating around online that the mysterium being stockpiled by SWORD is actually going to be used as the basis for a new intergalactic currency since one of the subplots in Ewing’s Guardians is that the cosmic economy is in free fall. Maybe SWORD is trying to give mutantkind control of integalactic commercial activity and somehow Storm’s powers have a role to play in that. I don’t know how, but I find the idea interesting especially since we know she has connections to the Shi’ar after saving Xandra.
