Medusan Cliffside
“According to the textbooks, a chlorine-silicon ecology isn’t even supposed
to exist. And between two biologists, two rock scientists, two rocket scientists
and a couple of fly-boys, we can’t figure out how any of this life works. And
yet it does. Hydrochloric acid-based blood burned through my boot. Next time,
send along some chemists.”
-from the journal of Dr. Karl Brock, Chief Scientist, AES Magellan, during the
first expedition to Medusa, 72 Hercules III (2206CE)
