All of my visualizations of Janaka and Joar's imagined space opera dominated by an alien race referred to as Elephant. Crab is Elephant's willing slaves. Highly empathic creatures, they live to serve.

Zodiacs are a highly advanced race of what I saw as vulture-like aliens. So advanced in fact as to figure out a way to escape the constant battle of mortal life and transcend their consciousness into a state of pure energy. This however left their bodies to be governed by what remained of their lower, more primitive functions. They now prowl the stars like primitive avian zombies on huge AI-controlled ships, ceaselessly on the hunt for meat and other resources to consume.

The Magpie resides in the shadows, a water bear-inspired thief made up of a collection of huge differentiated cells. This introduces the possibility to slip through virtually any opening, as the Magpie can squeeze its body into a single strand of cellular membranes and plasma. The perfect thief.

The city vista with the giant lozenge hovering in the background presents a scene of equal parts bewilderment fear and amazement as humanity in the not-so-distant future is suddenly confronted with the fact that they're far from alone in the universe.

Again, my illustrations, Janaka's and Joar's imaginations.
