    Summary

    "I'm trying to be culturally sensitive, so don't take this the wrong way," Grace says. "Is it just me or...is Erid fascist?"

    Finally, words have been put to my persistent fear and I can no longer deny what I have been thinking for the last several days. "Yeah. Erid's fascist."

    Rocky and Grace return to Erid to find the planet struggling under the climatic impacts of astrophage. Rocky goes down to Erid alone with the singular goal of creating food for Grace, who is dying of malnutrition. However, Rocky finds that Erid isn't the same as he left it; the new government is reconfiguring life around an ethos that is focused on strengthening Erid, limiting knowledge-creation, and being hostile to outsiders--like Grace. Now Rocky must find a way to not only save Grace from starvation on his own, but do so before the fascist hive mind can realize what's going on, as its eye slowly trains on eradicating the alien lifeform.

    Summary

    The egg is the same bright copper color as the rest of Rocky’s body, but smooth where his carapace is bumpy and brittle, the first Eridian-made object I've ever seen with curved edges rather than flat panels and sharp corners. It has a slight taper as well, narrowing upwards from its widest point.

    Rocky’s words echo in the back of my mind: “Grace would be perfect at take many ♪♪♫.”

    I jam the dissection probe through the shell.
