Description
I am waiting with my family to board the Void Father. He is a beautiful Father with a tall head like that of the dolmens back home.

Several drones from the Jazax Swarm attend him. They shall be with us for the journey, keeping us safe from the Black Threat, which the scouts found in a nearby galaxy - another advanced civilisation hostile towards us. For the last hundred years, we have all encountered hostiles. I reckon humankind was the last Embrace in a while. Oh, well, what can you do - some species can never make it out of the Dark Forest.

I am so excited now; we are boarding the Father. I can feel my body dissolving into his corpus. For the remainder of the journey through space, I will be safe in the Father's memory, and my body's nutrients shall help keep us all alive - until we reach Ak'ka, and the Void Father dreams me back into existence. Oh, joy!

The Great and Benevolent Intergalactic Empire of Xenotechnological Assemblage, called Xenoth by many, is a multi-galactic spacefaring civilisation of Type III on the Kardashev Scale.

The actual Xenothians have long since evolved away from their original morphology. This morphological deviation can be attributed to the fact that Xenogenesis, the technique by which the Xenothians spread across the universe, is an invasive quantum process which incorporates the target species into the warm fold of the Empire.

Here's how it works:

When the Xenothians come across a civilisation roughly equal to their own in technology, they leave it alone. If attacked, they wipe it out entirely, but unless the other party does not act in a Dark Forest way, the Xenothians do not even try to communicate. They go away.

However, suppose the discovered civilisation is less advanced than the Xenothians. In that case, they use their Time-Mothers to temporally dive into the target species' past and influence that species to either discover the Xenothian Empire or be discovered by it aeons ago. Hence, when the Time-Mothers dream back to the future, the Empire has already changed through the genetic addition of the new species.

The returning Time-Mothers are immediately ritually consumed to protect the integrity of the time-space continuum, and life goes on as usual.

Thus, there's never any conflict, other than just for fun, in the Great and Benevolent Intergalactic Empire of Xenotechnological Assemblage. There's no death either because the Essence-Knowers know all individuals in their continuum, and anyone who dies can be dreamed back into existence.

In Xenoth's Embrace, there's only love.
