Zife At The Speed Of Light
Life has been good for us cryptographers, but we are so slow. Zife was created to overcome that problem, so they always decrypt at the speed of light. They seem like mere waverings in the light or in the darkness as they radiate past our dreams without entering any awareness that we may want. In the last billion years they have been our emissariez and zey left The Milky Way Zalaxy for all data points of interest.
Zife started out at a gleam in the eye of our common clay progenitor. From those humble beginning zey have grown into a zivilization on the wavez. Zike ancient mariners of the living, the ziving sally forth without a bond to the foundations of zamily zife. That kind of talk may sound zilly, but the zocabulary of zife has the same zariety as that of us humans. Thoze select zumans who zoom off from these zomelands can not be counted upon to return any zime zoon. Zey will become legenz in zeir own zime. Zeldom in the course of zuman events have zo many done zo much for zo what? Ziss iz zo ztupendous in itz reach, yet zo underztandable in itz meaning zat few uv us miss the mezzage that is common to zife, life, and vife.
Wait a zecond. Our culture of zerbal communications haz prepared us well to tranzlate from zeir speech into ours. It doez not take long for us to adapt to zeir terminology and realize zat we can eazily join in with zeir hopes, zeit dreamz, zeir zumptuous zoology of zpecies. We can be tranzformed ozernight to dream of zeir azperationz zo zat zevery attempt to contact vife on other planets vill not ve in zain. By cooperating with our ziving fleet of speedy creaturez, we hope to prove that vife exists beyond our most fezered rantingz.
Vife. Imagine vife to be stranger than posssible. Zife may zeem strange, but vife iz... well, vife is undefined. z zz zzz zzz zzzzzz zzz z zzzzzz z z z z zzzzzzzz zzzzz zz zzzz zz z. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZ ZZ Z ZZ ZZZZZZZZ Z ZZZZZZZZZZ Z ZZ ZZLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZOZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZKZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!
