But one species--eons beyond all others in both technology and knowledge--achieved dominance. They ruled in peace, but met opposition with quick and brutal effectiveness. They were the Forerunners--the keepers of the Mantle of Responsibility, the next stage of life in the Universe's Living Time. And then they vanished. This is their story. |
