You could try sending your appeal to the Galactic Overload by a hypertransmission directed to the Galactic Centre...assuming you have the technology to do so...or by focusing a directed beam of Pure Thought thence. Some call this prayer, others call it Telepathic Communication. However, don't expect too much. We have been trying to get the GO to intercede for years and stop the encroachment of the Krith, dreadful creatures who are attempting to dominate and control all lifeforms in the Galaxy for nothing else than to wreak their sadistic will upon others, enslave them, and then boast about it...a despicable plan! Despite frequent pleas on our part, the GO has not responded. We have thus been forced to fall back on our contingency plan which involves finding barely sentient, yet semi-civilized lifeforms with clothing and intoxicating beverages who can combat the Krith on their own terms: brutal stupidity combined with gross egotism and total lack of judgement or self-control. In this way only can the Krith be destroyed and their vicious plans put to naught.

We have found a subject on your planet who may serve admirably in this role. He lives in a little community called Blind River...toward the northern area of one of your main continents. We have been testing him in various ways for the last few solar cycles in order to determine if he is stupid enough to meet the Krith and defeat them while not really being aware of the danger he is in. It requires a simply stunning level of stupidity to do this, and very few are capable of it, but we have confidence in the Shane, as we call him.

You may all one day owe your lives to him. Send a beam of Pure Thought out to him this day before you lie down to sleep.
