📖 Written by Galactic Horrors
A scavenger captain leads his crew onto a lost colony ship in the outer dark, expecting relics and dead systems, and instead finds a vessel that never stopped being alive. Its hangars are cathedral vaults of calcified bone, its corridors grown rather than built, and the walls still creep slowly enough to trap machinery, cargo, and flesh inside the ship’s own structure. What first looks like abandoned grandeur turns out to be a civilization that reshaped itself into a tomb. In the chapel sectors, among preserved skeletons and ossuary relics, the crew finds evidence that the original colonists did not merely fear genetic divergence—they built a sacred order around erasing it.
At the center of that order is the knight: a towering executor in blackened armor fused directly to a living ribcage, threaded through with ivory bone filaments and lit behind the visor by a single unblinking human eye. He waits like a funerary effigy until the ship identifies altered blood in the intruders, then begins his hunt. His defining capability is gene-sense; walls, sealed hatches, and darkness do not matter once he has the trace of modification. Deep in the reliquary decks, the captain discovers why the doctrine endured so long: generations of colonists surgically purged their own enhancements to remain pure by the ship’s law, preserving severed mutant organs as holy contraband while turning self-mutilation into piety. The ship is not simply haunted by old fanaticism. It is still enforcing it.
