A man stands in ancient ruins under three moons, gazing at a glowing cassette tape in a glass dome, next to a record player with a floating meteor.

On a world of swirling violet mists and crystalline skies, beneath three moons that wept silver light, he strode through the ruins of a forgotten age. He had journeyed here expecting only silence, a final exile from the echoes of his past. For the voice of his father had been swallowed by the long years, reduced to a ghost in the attic of his mind, a warmth he could no longer recall the shape of. But here, amid the lichen-wreathed stones of an ancient observatory, cobwebs shimmering like spun starlight, a single, incongruous object lay waiting in a shaft of ethereal luminescence.

An inscription, glowing with a faint, internal fire, read: "For my son, on the day he first breathes the air of a new world." A spectral, thrumming energy coalesced around the player, its needle a shard of obsidian.
