A survivor of the extinct Krsutner people is successfully awakened from her death-like sleep. She, the Krsutner, consisting of over 50,000 organic nanites, is the last of her kind. The ancient race of Krsutner, the original race of all organic nanites in the galaxy, has perished. The organic spaceship Paurusheya and the Xxiin, which make up Alethea's body, are descended from them, as are the space nanites that Sigurd once resettled in the Earth system. Alethea remembers Paurusheya, whose avatar she had once been. The Xxiin ship can also bridge long distances with ease.

The ancient race of Krsutner was and is the original race of all organic nanites in the galaxy. ANUN'HA, the primordial mother and later home planet of a race that once ruled over many planetary systems, was long dead.
Her children and children's children, however, lived. They were scattered all over the galaxy.
The original race, however, had perished.
With the destruction of the last bastion of the star ziggurat, an era came to an end.
In the eons of eternity since its creation and demise, much had happened that could not be traced in retrospect.
Too great was the decay of time. Too enormous were the spatial, - and temporal distances.
Too non-human and fantastic were the developments of a completely strange environment, for the human mind to make a reasonably understandable analysis of the events.
At some point in the distant future, now past, a split of the intellect occurred and a variety of organic nanites emerged and left their home world.
They became the Ur-Xxiin and the space nanites, some of which were later relocated to the Earth system by Sigurd.
These Ur-Xxiin were later again the origin base for the organic spaceship Paurusheya or the stations MAITRI and TRISHARANA in the Earth system.
Alethea, former avatar of the nanite ship Paurusheya, was the last living individual who is a direct descendant of the Old Family of Krsutner.
She knows little about her origins. Even when her consciousness had been united with the ship Paurusheya, she had no memory of the past.
When she came to under the volcano Teide-Pico Viejo on the island of Tenerife in the Earth system from long and deep unconsciousness, all memories of a previous life had been erased.
It had only been thanks to Sigurd Westall's paranormal power that she had been awakened from her long sleep at all.
Alethea's thoughts drifted back to the early days of their encounter.
It was disco night at the Hotel Sombrairo at the top of Calle la Ladera. Bundles of light cascaded into the twilight.
At first still quiet music was heard. Small lights went on. Lanterns and rod lamps, stuck into the ground with a spike, illuminated a path across to the event covered with tarpaulins.
The first voices of laughing and happy people rang out.
"Me paso la vida soplando," could be heard shouting, and "Viva El Trio Zapatista!"
There he stood, as if lost, looking with a serious expression at the three singers in black hats who moved like penguins as they played guitar and sang, Sigurd.
She had recognized him from five meters away.
Even from twenty kilometers, from the edge of Pico del Teide, she had felt his paranormal radiance.
Alethea was almost completely lost in thought and had no sight of her surroundings. She trotted dutifully behind Mullokk and his men, while her mind dwelt in the past.
When the vaulted ceiling suddenly widened, Mullokk stopped. She reacted too late and bumped into him.
Her eyes widened when she saw the walls decorated with murals. It was a decorative system of geometric figures and vines.
The painting started on the walls and extended seamlessly into the ceiling, slowly spreading further there.
The indirect glow had intensified. Their original assumption that it was triggered by daylight was no longer tenable. They were now far too deep inside the planet.
Mullokk had not reacted when she had run into him. Now he pointed to a pictorial representation that stretched over a wall area of three by two meters and appeared to be completely different from the other paintings. It also seemed self-contained in content.
"I've seen something like this before. It was on a very old planet. In the ruins of a long-gone species, there were similar drawings. There they adorned burial chambers."
Alethea looked at Mullokk in amazement. She could not do anything with it. He looked at her again as if questioning.
She did not react, however, but let her gaze continue to glide over the walls.
At the end of the elongated room, vaulted niches in the wall were visible. She could not tell from here, however, if they housed any artifacts.
Nevertheless, she had the abrupt impression that they should continue their way over there.
"That way."
She pointed in the indicated direction with an outstretched arm and just started walking.
A sort of melody sounded softly from the ground, just in front of where her feet touched the pavement. Mullokk signaled his people to follow her.
He had noticed Alethea's facial expression, which had changed spontaneously. She seemed to be in a trance.
The floor was covered with brick slabs, which now also began to glow more strongly from within themselves, just like the walls.
Fine dust particles flew individually but also in cloud-like forms.
She now walked along a corridor that was accompanied by wall niches on the left and right. It smelled musty.
The Maul'aafen behind her were now conversing only quietly.
Mullokk himself had pulled a hand-held spotlight from his belt holster and seemed to be getting nervous. He was no longer taking his eyes off Alethea, but at the same time he was trying to analyze the immediate surroundings.
Both together caused an increased release of stress hormones.
Alethea abruptly switched to a passageway hidden to the side and came to a square room, in the center of which three rows of tables with seats made of smooth stone became visible.
She ignored the clear evidence of the presence of intelligent life and crossed the room with quick steps.
Before Mullokk and his people could follow her even for Maul'aafen quick movements, the thunderous sound of a heavy explosion rang out.
The floor began to heave.
The massive marble, and brick slabs bulged up, blocking their way.
As Alethea left the tables behind, the ceiling came down right there with a roar of thunder, burying half the room in rubble and ash.
Mullokk cursed loudly and shouted, "Alethea stop. We're not getting anywhere here for now!"
He was standing directly in front of a trench that had formed and was about five meters long. He could not estimate its depth.
It blocked their further way, as it stretched from one side wall to the other.
Curiously, no clouds of dust were forming, although rivulets of ash, which had formed in the gaping hole in the ceiling, were still visible.
"We need one-man anti-grav units."
Mullokk could no longer see Alethea and cursed even more loudly.
