On the red planet of Mars, in the alien city of Zarnok Prime, the skies shimmered with the glow of twin moons. Kirox, a young alien of the Vellari species with glowing eyes and skin like molten glass, worked in the city's Signal Tower. One evening, Kirox detected a strange signal - something not from Mars, not from Earth, but deeper… from below the crust.
