@Voyvoy_ my guy thanks for the release, this chapter show some additional information about how intellegent squibbon relationship is
also one of the textbox in page 20 is still in raw form
...And in another 200 million years, the sun is already well on its journey heating up and all plant life are feeling the first signs of their impending doom as CO2 levels are starting to plummet as a consequence of that, a process that will be completed in the next 100 million years after that..

More wild than we can ever imagine... yeah. Those squibbons seem to represent a true human successor that may eventually make it to the stars someday. After all, the earliest fossils belonging to the homo genus only dates back around 3 million years. These guys have a lot more than that to play around with. ad astra per... um... calamari
It was interesting to read that while octopi are considered more intelligent per individual with more complex problem solving and tool use, squids use their intelligence for a group. Maybe that's the tipping point, at the end of the day. It has to be a sort of social intelligence to get over that hump into something resembling homo.
Ehhh, who knows. Maybe just anthropic bias or whatever.
Anyway cheers for getting these stories translated. It was interesting to see it all visualized. The last story is equal parts hope and melancholy. I felt quite sad at the younger sibling looking skywards, thinking only his elder sibling had the 'power'. But I'm cheered by that line, that they don't tend to be as gloomy as humans.

Interesting how they omitted the parasite that brainjacked the megasquid, and made it a carnivore like real cephalopods
