(E1R2Y35) Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and Kluex’s reign as the most advanced Avian to ever live is no exception. He is loved, feared, and revered all at the same time, and even before his death, cults begin to form around him, worshipping the very ground he walks upon After fifty years as the supreme leader of a budding civilization, Kluex retires his seat (E1R1Y50/E1R2Y0) and styles himself as an arbiter of justice - as an Avian still in his prime, he cuts an imposing figure as he metes justice upon those who break his strict laws. However, the aliens’ plan goes awry: instead of staying separate, the post-Ascendance Avians interbreed with the genetically distinct pre-Ascendance Avians, and the resulting half-breed, though still very much Avian, is not quite up to par with the original plan for the race. Kluex leads his band of Avians to build the beginnings of a mighty civilization they and their children build many temples for the express purpose of worshipping the alien culture that caused them to Ascend. Leading them is the Avian known as Kluex, chosen by the aliens for his above-average intelligence and physical prowess. This population, after just one orbital cycle, is taken back to the planet’s surface with the technology required to build a society. Back on the orbital base, the sample population of Avians is being genetically enhanced and given knowledge of advanced alien technology - from simple combustion, to the art of constructing stable stone buildings, to sub-light particle acceleration (with the sole exception being the technology of space travel, though the building blocks for that particular field were supplied).

This is not the full extent of the alien race’s terraforming, though: deserts are seeded with forests of trees that grow hundreds of metres tall, and small populations of various alien creatures are planted in locations that will support them.The moon’s molten surface now outputs as much radiation as a (very) young star, and will continue to do so for tens of thousands of years to come. The planet’s moon (formerly dark and mostly inert) has also been changed: the inactive magma core is heated to the equivalent of Jovian core temperatures, and injected with millions of tons of slowly-decaying radioactive substances, with a half-life of 100,000 years, to ensure that it stays at those temperatures. After thirty lunar cycles, the hydrocarbon atmosphere’s composition has been extensively modified to allow more light through without negatively impacting the currently-existing biosphere.
As the terraforming machines go to work, samples of the Avian population are taken and studied. Two orbital cycles later, a small fleet of the (unnamed) alien race’s ships emerges from FTL travel and forms an orbiting base above the surface of the planet.
The automated robotic probes of an advanced alien race punch through Avos’ atmosphere and run sweeps for intelligent life, finding only the Avians. 
Over a quarter of Avos’ surface area is barren scrublands due to the lack of sunlight, though the hazy hydrocarbon atmosphere provides ample sustenance for large, slow-growing plant life (which sustains the Avians).
Avians languish as moderately-intelligent hunter-scavengers, near the top of their food chain, showing no interest in technological advancement. 1.8 The Upheaval, Part 3: Peace (E3R2Y8):. 1.7 The Upheaval, Part 2: War (E3R2Y1):. 1.6 The Upheaval, Part 1: Politics (E3R1):.
