The creatures possess an extraordinary ability to adapt and mutate at incredible speed, transforming in response to every threat the colonists introduce. As each countermeasure fails, Marin realizes the mutations are following a terrifying pattern toward an inevitable conclusion. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
