The alien masters were the ancient civilization that created the protomolecule, leaving a technology whose purpose and scale outlasted its makers. A mysterious force eventually devoured them, and the defensive response they triggered caused stars in infected systems to go supernova. Their lost civilization becomes a warning written across the universe: even beings powerful enough to remake worlds were not beyond destruction.

Description

The text gives no bodily or visual description of Miller's alien masters, only their identity as an ancient civilization responsible for creating the protomolecule. Their appearance, scale, coloring, and forms are unknown. For a visual depiction, they should remain distinctly nonhuman and abstract rather than being assigned human features or clothing.
