Last remnants of humanity watch powerless from the International Space Station as the final pockets of the Earth's surface are consumed.
Our planet is now an anchor for Xipe Totec, the alien organism we were powerless against, as it continues spreading throughout the cosmos.

November 15, 2021. A new dwarf planet has been discovered in our solar neighbourhood. It was given the provisional name Xipe Totec.
It has gone unnoticed due to its small size and complex orbit, but it recently passed close enough for this first image to be captured.
did it need a world with organic life already present, or did earth just so happen to lose the worst cosmic lottery imaginable
It probably looks for chemical signs of a suitable planet, like oxygen-rich atmospheres. If there's life already there, too bad for them!
wait, does that mean that what we call xipe totec was once its own thriving planet full of vibrant life before..... all that?
Possibly! The original planet where the superorganism developed was definitely thriving with life at some point. For the planet we see visit us in the series., we can't really know!
