Alienigenas Ancestrales Temporad -

The Spire is not dormant. It is calling to the Yn-Sarrath. The negative-space entities are beginning to manifest as absences —missing equipment, forgotten names, a crew member who was never there but everyone remembers.

The Alienígenas Ancestrales (Ancestral Aliens) were not visitors to prehistoric Earth. They were its first engineers —beings of semi-organic silicon, living metal, and crystallized neural matter. They arrived during the Cryogenian period, when the planet was a ball of ice and slush. They did not come in ships. They came through Lapidum Portae —the Stone Gates—remnants of a collapsed hyperdimensional empire. Alienigenas Ancestrales Temporad

But whose memory do you sacrifice? And what will the Vordakai, drawn by the paradox, do when they arrive? They did not come in ships

We will wish they hadn’t. End of Write-up.
