CYBERNETIC ORGANISM COLLECTIVE
It's not real.
Ships that are destroyed and come back as twisted copies of themselves? Ships that break apart to reveal another warship trapped inside like a bug in amber?
It's a ghost story. Nothing more. We just tell each other about it to scare each other. It's a ghost story. Like the IRS.
