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

We have discovered the fossilized remains of a gargantuan gastropod, matching no previously encountered lifeform, trapped within a huge block of ice circling …. Its eyes glare fiercely ahead, tentacles reared and muzzle twisted into a gruesome grimace, as if locked in a silent shout. The creature displays no apparent signs of sapience. Despite its eerie visage, our scientists believe that if domesticated the creature could make a valuable asset. They recommend extracting some of its DNA for cloning.
