It’s been four standard days since I met Masaaki. I know I must abandon this quest to conquer her. It’s in the best interest of her and I. If the relationship were to bloom, it’d be fruitless. It would attract too much unwanted attention, and too many sanctions would be imposed on me and on her as well. This is doomed.

The mission to unravel the mysteries of A-001-gamma goes well. The upside to my delirium.

The soil composition is, to no surprise, the same on each of the four planets. To our surprise, even animals are composed of much of the same molecule—germanium.

Germanium is a strange molecule to exist in a living creature on a planet where carbon is in abundance. Germanium is eight times heavier than carbon. Like carbon, it has four electrons available to create bonds with other atoms and create complex organic matter.

Nature is simple in that way. She will always choose the course of least resistance. Organic matter formed with carbon is less costly than creating matter with germanium. For this reason, the conclusion is that the animals aren’t natural. They weren’t born out of an evolutionary process that took millions of years. Their DNA chain is made of ribonucleic acids, same as any other living being we’ve encountered, but of course, where carbon should be, we find germanium. Proteins coded by mRNA contain germanium.

The animals are forged, created. Some xeno species deemed that the animals in these planets should be formed of germanium and not carbon, for whatever reasons. Maybe because that xeno is also formed mostly of germanium? It could be.

But alas, the conclusion is all the same—we’re dealing with forged worlds. And for all we know, A-001 could be a zoo-planetary system, like the ones we keep in the Milky Way for entertainment, for our own pleasure.

I cringe at the thought of Tauro purging all the land and air creatures of A-001 alpha. We don’t know what these animals mean to the xeno species who created them. The animals here could be some sort of religious figure.

The scientific team had my permission to sacrifice several animals. They all possessed similar organs in a similar distribution. Gut, heart, lungs, kidneys, bladder, brain, mouth, esophagus—everything needed for an organism to feed itself and thrive in an environment.

The question now is, are the creators of the animals an aggressive people? If so, we’ve done plenty to piss them off. The other question is, what relation is there with the Tragalaf and the creators of these worlds? Did the creators purge the Tragalaf? Or did the Tragalaf flee their own self-destructive wars against themselves?

The fact that they attacked Earth back then, choosing our planet out of all the planets in the Milky Way, means something. I think it means they saw us, humans. And if they freaked out because they saw humans, maybe it means they fled from humans or humanoids, and upon finding a similar people in another galaxy where they were supposed to find solace, they decided to take revenge.
