A shiny red spaceship lands in the kingdom.
The aliens behind the spaceship do not know this, but they are the size of ladybugs. They think they are large and mighty. Maybe it’s because they are high-tech aliens. The technology makes them feel big.
Eep: This is an unusual place. Surprisingly, I think you have landed the spaceship on a plant. I would not believe it, but my high-tech scope indicates it is a life-form filled with chloroplasts.
Gleep: And these chloroplasts, of course, are filled with chlorophyll. It is a plant! A mighty plant. What inhabits this land?
Eep and Gleep ponder that question for exactly 7 minutes, and then they confer for a few minutes more. Gleep defined the word “few” to be two.
The aliens wearing white toolbelts with “Scientific Method” printed on them, wonder where to begin exploring. Gathering and studying information is what they do.
A twinkle is spotted by Eep. Eep and Gleep run to the window of their ship.
Eep says, “I see black hills.”
” I think we should use our jet packs to fly to the hills and have a look around.” Gleep had his serious look on his face. ”It’s odd we saw a twinkle.”
