The will and resilience of life never ceases to amaze me. Infinite permutations of
bacteria, animals, and plants all exist as a direct result of the endless struggle
and adaptation against a hostile universe. This installation, light years from the
galactic center, is a paragon of that fact. When we first arrived here, the Ark
had suffered great wounds from our war against the Covenant, and so we
activated dormant retriever sentinels and deployed them to strip-mine lifeless
planets for the materials needed to repair the installation. Like watching a
sleeping giant nudged into wakefulness, the reconstruction slowly reached full
automation until we were no longer needed to guide the sentinels and could
simply sit back and record the wonder of a world being reborn. [1/3]
