The sole survivor of the notorious Project Seraph experiments has reportedly appeared at the Aegis symposium, startling the live audience.
Vox Galactica journalist Allan Mantle published an on-the-scene report:
âThe shouting caught everyone in the conference hall by surprise, interrupting a discussion about the recently leaked âThargoid roarâ heard at HIP 22460. We all watched in amazement as a small figure in dishevelled clothing slipped past security and fought her way onto the stage, disarming several guards who sought to intervene. Many ran, fearing an attack, but Professor Alba Tesreau stood her ground.â
âThe bedraggled woman yelled hoarsely that her name was Seo Jin-ae, adding âYou know me!â to Tesreau herself. When the intruder yanked up her sleeve as if to show something, I deployed my drone cameras which clearly captured the symbols âD-2â ink-branded onto her forearm.â
âShe then grabbed Professor Tesreau and said âI donât know where else to go. I knowâŠâ She gestured at the screens, where audio analysis of the HIP 22460 Thargoid sound was displayed. âI think I know what that means. Itâs too late to stop whatâs coming.ââ
âTesreau immediately ordered security to stand down. She called several other former members of Aegis to help, and together they escorted the woman off stage. Within minutes came the announcement that the symposiumâs primary presentation was cancelled, with secondary talks would be moved to the main stage.â
Subject D-2 first came to light when the abandoned settlement Oaken Point was discovered in the HIP 26176 system. Its logs described Project Seraphâs attempts to create human pilots for Thargoid vessels, from which D-2 escaped by stowing away on a courierâs ship. In June, D-2 contacted Professor Tesreau to expose an INRA base in the DG Canum Venaticorum system, which revealed Salvationâs identity as Dr Caleb Wycherley of then-Azimuth Biochemicals.
