⚍⚍ INCOMING TRANSMISSION ⚎⚎

Sentients of this vessel: I am Zhou, envoy of Caducus Primary. Your current trajectory predicts your arrival shortly, and as such, we have prepared a generous welcome for you. All we ask is that you show the same kindness once you are here. As a token of hospitality, I extend an invitation for you to ask any one personal question — past, present, or future. It will be given an answer.

We, of Caducus Primary, recognize the value of all things no matter their fragile nature. We anticipate your approach with great happiness.

[ Ask whatever you might of Zhou, but keep in mind that it is only one question per person. Questions about Caducus Primary do not apply toward the one question, though they will still be answered. ]
