The footage is grainy, tinted in the harsh ultraviolet of a dying star. It shows a single figure standing on the edge of a glass-flat salt plain. This is Elara, the lead xenobiologist who had been declared "vaporized" in the 2084 laboratory breach. But in the video, she is very much whole. She isn't wearing a vacuum suit. She’s breathing the thin, toxic atmosphere of Kepler-186f as if it were a spring breeze. "They told you the signal was a warning,"

As she speaks, the ground behind her begins to ripple. Huge, geometric shadows rise from the salt, defying gravity. They aren't ships; they are organisms of pure mathematics.
