A billion years ago, on a planet in the Arcturus system, lived a group of intelligent beings skilled at weaving new species from genetic filaments.
But Arcturus entered the red giant stage of stellar evolution, and billions of lives faced imminent destruction. The intelligent beings chose two among them to escort seed pods out of the Arcturus system.
Carrying genetic filaments and a species database, the seed pods drifted through interstellar space for a hundred thousand years. At last, by sheer good fortune, they were captured by early Earth.
The genetic filaments of the two voyagers were reborn, weaving millions of species on Earth. They were also the common ancestors of dinosaurs and humans.
In modern times, humanity's genetic tracing project reached a world-shaking conclusion: more than 90 percent of Earth's living things share a common ancestor, the twin-resonance genetic filament.
Thus began the history of life's evolution on Earth...
