    Summary

    Grace. A short, grating sound. A word, not a name. A word that used to be associated with [Adrian]. Potential suitors had called their measured bearing and smooth songs graceful. Visitors to [Adrian] and [Rocky]'s home called [Adrian] a gracious host. Everybody said that [Adrian] handled their mate disappearing into space for [fifty-four years] with grace.
    Now, their mate has returned with Grace.

    Summary

    “Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.” 

    “Cannibalism,” I manage to get out. 

    “New word. Cannibalism.”

    Summary

    "I'm trying to be culturally sensitive, so don't take this the wrong way," Grace says. "Is it just me or...is Erid fascist?"

    Finally, words have been put to my persistent fear and I can no longer deny what I have been thinking for the last several days. "Yeah. Erid's fascist."

    Rocky and Grace return to Erid to find the planet struggling under the climatic impacts of astrophage. Rocky goes down to Erid alone with the singular goal of creating food for Grace, who is dying of malnutrition. However, Rocky finds that Erid isn't the same as he left it; the new government is reconfiguring life around an ethos that is focused on strengthening Erid, limiting knowledge-creation, and being hostile to outsiders--like Grace. Now Rocky must find a way to not only save Grace from starvation on his own, but do so before the fascist hive mind can realize what's going on, as its eye slowly trains on eradicating the alien lifeform.
