Summary
These had to be humans; had to be, right? It should have excited him, but instead Grace clicked on the radio, intending to send a transmission back to Erid—back to Simon. It wouldn't get there for at least a few days, but the thought of Simon and Adrian not knowing what had happened to them—if something were to happen—made dread swell in his chest.
"This is Doctor Captain Ryland Grace reporting from the Hail Mary. Simon, Adrian—th-there's something out here. Something that shouldn't be out here." He said it all quickly, unable to help the small tremor in his voice. Grace didn’t feel like he had a choice; he had to slow Mary down, or they’d collide with the approaching spacecraft. Besides… maybe they just wanted to talk?
Rocky and Grace are back on the Hail Mary for another trip, this time to deliver some much-needed TLC to other nearby stars. Away from Erid and missing their partners, they stumble across something unprecedented.
To Grace, it's a tantalizing scientific oddity.
To Eden, it's a chance for salvation and revenge, all at once.
And to Simon, it's an impossible decision from his own personal hell.
