PAGE 1
Panel 1:Commander Eva Rostova, in a bulky space suit, plants a flag on the desolate, red Martian-like surface of Kepler-186f.
“Mission accomplished.”
Panel 2:Eva stops, her helmet visor reflecting a faint, unnatural glint on a distant, jagged ridge.
“What's that?”
Panel 3:Eva stands before a sleek, obsidian-like geometric structure, partially buried in the red dust, clearly artificial.
“Impossible.”
PAGE 2
Panel 1:Eva runs a scanner over the smooth, jointless surface of the alien structure, her face intrigued through the visor.
“No entry points…”
Panel 2:A section of the structure glows with soft blue light, then slides open silently, revealing a dark, inviting aperture.
Panel 3:Eva hesitates for a moment at the glowing threshold, then steps confidently into the darkness within the structure.
“Here we go.”
PAGE 3
Panel 1:Inside the vast, dimly lit chamber, Eva sees holographic projections of ancient Earth, showing early human lifeforms.
“Earth… millennia ago.”
Panel 2:The projections zoom in, revealing complex biological schematics and a specific, manipulated human DNA sequence glowing unnaturally.
“Modified… engineered?”
Panel 3:A final, chilling projection displays shadowy, non-human figures observing the manipulated Earth from afar, their faces unreadable.
“They watched us grow.”
PAGE 4
Panel 1:Eva recoils, her hand flying to her helmet, overwhelmed by the revelation of humanity's alien creation.
“This changes everything.”
Panel 2:She looks from her comms device, which could send this truth home, to a glowing self-destruct panel on the wall.
“Truth… or oblivion?”
Panel 3:Eva's finger hovers, then firmly presses the self-destruct button; a red countdown begins on the panel as she turns to leave.
“Some secrets must die.”
