Subject K888 - The Lone Tyrant (Kay-8888)

Mercury Excursion S1-M8-K888


  Mission Directive: Global analysis of Mercury. Specific and thorough observance of Subject K888.   Analysis: K888 is in a constant state of linear locomotion. It is covered by a chemically impenetrable suit of armor of Venovian make, carbon dating estimating its age to be in the millions. K888 was identified in [Removed!] during the Xiang [Removed!]. The Venovian armor encases the subject and seemingly weighs them down. K888 is theorized to be made of obsidian, sulfur, molten lead, and nitrogen. Traces of carbon and Mark-X (Pending reclassification; invalid readings) ardor radiation has been found outside the suit. K888 ignores most sentient life, their being only two exceptions. Those infected with Mark-VIII or above levels of ardor radiation and those with any form of Venovian ancestry will cause a reaction. The former will receive telekinetic messages. Messages will be cryptic and incomprehensible. Monologues have lasted three seconds, with the longest monologue being five hours. Those affected by this monologue will either, but not only be, paranoid, terrified, joyful, sexually aroused, psychotic, delusional, suicidal, depressed, calm, rendered blind, and/or killed via neural shutdown. The Venovian latter will be annihilated at the atomic level, even quarks being erased from reality as we currently know it. Venovians have a 100% fatality rate when put within K888’s sphere of influence. Currently, it is confirmed that K888’s sphere of influence only extends to the geosynchronous orbit of Mercury.   Currently, as of [Removed!], K888 has not ceased in its lazy locomotion. Any forms of testing or stimuli aside from special cases have proven unsuccessful. Nuclear and ardor weaponry has no effect on the armor, chemical and biological weapons virtually useless against its plating and even the subject inside.   K888 is not organic. It is not inorganic. Science cannot explain what form of life it is. If it is life at all.

Known monologue excerpts:
"You are forgiven. Go away."
"Unknown. Go away."
"Hello. Where are you from?"
"You remind me of Her. Go away."
"Digesting something. You are insane. Go away."   "Unto Babylon go and find who you want to be. Unto me, you will find what you are."
"Go. Go and be what you are."
