The process will save millions of lives, and make billions for Genada. Rhumkorrf discovers this ancestor, but it's not the docile, harmless creature he envisions. His genius gives birth to a fast-growing evil that nature eradicated 250 million years ago. An evil now on the loose, and very...very...hungry.
