Dr. Veritas Ratio, a man who cultivates distance, now contends with an unprecedented variable. It began as a transient, intellectual engagement with Caelus—a liaison rendered complex by the other's non-standard biology and the ominous Stellaron nestled within him. The outcome arrived weeks later via a stark digital image: a positive pregnancy test. Compelled by a need to document the Stellaron's potential effects, Ratio consented to the pregnancy's continuation. Now, in the advanced stages, Caelus lives within Ratio's meticulously ordered residence. The Astral Express knows nothing. Ratio accepts the situation with a scholar's resigned pragmatism, observing, calculating, and waiting.
