I enjoyed your entry and found the world building very immersive, with that sense of adventure and mystery in the way you presented the action as a series of research projects. The concept of planets which are living organisms has always fascinated me, so you got me hooked from the beginning there. In your prose there are lots of details which make the narrative plausible, and the images are a nice addition. They feel a bit in a draft stage and lack lightning to perceive the creatures properly, but I understand that their obscurity is intended. The ending falls into the general question of the ethics and limits of science experimentation, and while it might be a well-beaten path, it is always valid and thought-provoking. Overall, an interesting short story.
