Summary
As the years go by and summers cool and winters become harsher, the name Ryland Grace is lifted up in churches, mosques, shrines, temples, synagogues, and all kinds of congregations around the world, big or small. Prayers for safety, for wisdom, for good health. His likeness is depicted in all manner of iconography – graffiti, prayer cards, murals, statues – the evolution of a clever fox at his side spreading like wildfire, a token of cleverness and ingenuity. His name is in the lisping whisper of a young child saying prayers before bed and in the heart of those who never had much room for faith in anything else before.
Ryland Grace, they say. You have traveled so far, but you still have so long to go and so much to do. Protect us. Save us. May you find both wisdom and discernment. We have faith in you. Remember us. Save us.
Nearly twelve light years from Earth, Ryland Grace wakes up with a jolt on the Hail Mary to his own name echoing in his head.

Summary
The Latin liturgy washes over him, a warmth suffusing his whole body. He can taste the yearning aches of those who pray, like a sour-sweet wine and just as heady. The Kyrie Eleison floats like motes of shimmering gold in the air. It pulls at him, grounding him, connecting him to the here and now, to humanity, to the pain and desperation and joy and triumph of simply being alive, of simply surviving.
Per gratiam salvi sumus, the choir sings. Per gratiam salvi sumus.
The words echo through his skull, reverberating like a bell. His heart quickens and his breath goes short, a tidal wave of something swelling within him.
Since the launch of the Hail Mary twenty-seven years ago, Dr. Ryland Grace has become a well-known religious figure, prayers for his safety and for Earth's survival a constant refrain around the world. Ximena Reyes has faith in Dr. Grace, not so much religion as a whole.
And then the beetles return.
