"RTY, my trusted friend. Fear not, nothing can disturb my serenity and that of our people."
The Supreme TYK was, in actual fact, the largest and oldest exoskeleton of all Kerion where, thousands of years earlier, the soul of the one who had ruled the planet in the pre-machine period had been transferred. With time, his physical structure had become immense. His current extension approached two square kilometres with a height that, in some points, exceeded five hundred metres. TYK was a multi-purpose technological agglomerate with the peculiarities and efficiency of a million Japanese factories all joined together.
"Iâm afraid that, this time, whatâs happened is truly atrocious," continued the Kerian in charge.
"Speak, whatâs happened?"
"Laboratory /\ was attacked and destroyed. Ten million souls were annihilated. Only nine-hundred and ninety launched through container (|), a few instants before the explosion, were saved."
"Explosion? What are you talking about? Who was it?" TYKâs voice, always calm and relaxed, had now taken on a decidedly much altered tone.
âYou can view what was recorded by the capsule as it moved away from the satellite, directly on the central system, reference |^|."
TYK remained silent for a long time as he repeatedly watched the images captured by the container, then he turned off the view and said, "That spherical bomb was designed by that alien race that inhabits the blue planet called |o|.â
"Or by the inhabitants of the other planet that belongs to the same solar system," added the one in charge.
"It was an attack brought without mercy by that primitive species on our race. Millions of our brothers were annihilated before they could transfer. Why?"
"Weâve always thought that those beings didnât represent a danger to us, even if I have always opposed the creation of /\ on their satellite."
"Whatâs this other planet you spoke of?"
"We call it |O|. Itâs very similar to |o|. But its orbit is considerably larger. It performs one complete revolution around the sun every 3600 revolutions of |o| and its inhabitants are of very similar origin. Indeed, according to studies carried out some time ago, it would appear that the inhabitants of |O| genetically modified certain species that lived on |o| to make them similar to them."
"So, we can say that they belong to the same race and are even more evolved?"
âYes, Iâd say so,â replied the Supervisor. "I would also add that, in this period, |O| has intersected the orbit of |o| passing really close to it."
"Therefore, the inhabitants of the two planets have seized this opportunity to form an alliance and attack our structure. It cannot be otherwise. What I still do not understand is why."
