"𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐲𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭, 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞." What had been thought of as a spaceship, wasn't. It was a kind of space-traveling organism with . . . distinctive abilities. The comm system of the galaxy had always been telepathy. Nobody flew around in spaceships fixing stuff because we aren't allowed to do interventions anyway. We tried it. Didn't work. 147 years ago, our mining spacecraft went BOOM and took out everyone with it when it plummeted to the ground. Unfortunately, there were survivors. There always are. We survived it- the apocalypse that is, but it doesn't mean we were supposed to. We are all descendants of the victors of millennia of genocide and annihilation, the others are, well. . . dead. After all, living a life is just waiting for hell to end. ( ~13 March 2020, 6:21 pm ) Kk.Rhyss
