In which a GMO comes around.
The Thripti of Fenrir's Landing are currently the only known human hybrid species that was not developed by human hands. Fenrir's Landing was destined to become an industrial mega-port, factories spanning from one pole to the other. When it was discovered to be lush with vegetation, the corporations deforesting it received a missive from a previously unknown alien civilization, asking them to stop the devastation. The last communication with corporate headquarters simply confirmed deforestation would continue. After this, all contact mysteriously ceased for the next 250 years. Expeditions to the planet much later reported a lack of any humans, but a new and uncatalogued species on the planet - a race of humanoid savages who lived in earthen hives, barely able to communicate. Unlike the human colonists before them, they depended on and formed a rather intimate relationship with the local plant species by pollenation and a form of honey production. Records and research on the unknown alien civilization were able to uncover just two points: advanced genetic engineering, and, apparently, a strange sense of ironic humor.
