Shroud Tears
The "Shroud Tears" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Shroud Tears

Across the galaxy, hundreds of subspace ruptures briefly opened to a psionic dimension, and it appears to have weakened whatever barrier exists between the two. While most caused no issue, a few released energy beings now terrorizing the galaxy. Thankfully, these beings seem as confused as we are, and there doesn't appear to be any organized cohesion, so we are ruling out an invasion at this point. We will have to deal with any entities in our territory. Who or what created these changes is still unclear, but we suspect another country might be responsible. But for now, we will just have to watch for other phenomena of this nature.
