[i]This planet's Ecosystem was intelligently designed by The Mind itself in an act of self-preservation; sentient beings, beastly beings, things that death itself fears. An Ecosystem designed to destroy anything which interferes with its natural order with extreme prejudice. The Fail-Safe was created as a last resort. If something so determined to take Exalin's fruits, and The Mind, for themselves arise from the chill of deep space, the Fail-Safe is to be manually activated by the Guardians... Destroying all traces of organic life on Exalin, and everything within a thousand light years.[/i]
