[ WP ] You are a member of a mildly intelligent species that evolved on the inside of Enceladus 's ice crust . Humans have just bored through and made contact .

Our scientists could scarcely believe it when our nuclear weapon detection systems started picking up blasts beyond The Wall. Almost ten years ago it seemed so too far away to seem real, but now we had just days before The Outsiders burst through. 
 
 Some blamed their arrival on our own action, others said it was inevitable. We wanted to see what was on the other side of The Wall so we'd injected some probes into the volcanic geysers. Signals lasted for a brief, beautiful time and shared a world of stars and space beyond; but the strength of our communications through the ice did more than relay beauty. They also attracted The Outsiders. 
 
 Now we wait. Every two days they detonate another hydrogen bomb, bringing us closer to Them. Soon the crust will rupture, enacting a temporary water passage. We've readied our cities, our ships, and our top diplomats and leaders; but we've laid down our weapons. The Outsiders have already shown their terror. If hatred is in their hearts our destiny is sealed. 
 
 They've breached The Wall. 
 
 Pray they come in peace.
