earthborn adj. | 2015 | Forever Man iii. 55 On Garrickβs last immersion, he had gone deeper than any earthborn being ever had, apart from a prehistoric earthworm who had entered through a rift brought on by a major volcanic eruption, which happened to coincide with extreme levels of solar radiation.
mutation n. | 2015 | Forever Man x. 147 Most humans would simply have died of fright at the sight of the giant squid, a monster from their nightmares come to thrashing, sinewy life.
