Gilman was quick to make his way over to the alien to investigate and hopefully make proper conversation. The Stella were thankfully able to understand human speech and managed to find a method to communicate through learning how to write. Meanwhile Jennings when to check on the brood mother, feeling an odd sense of deja vu... Upon inspecting the woman she was met with a cheery smile. To Jennings' shock, this was one of the women reporting on alien pregnancies in the area!

Going by the name Inko, she and her family had reported her own alien pregnancy some months prior but agents arrived to find her back a normal human shape for the most part. Women like herself who were diagnosed with special conditions were quite notable due to how they may interact with alien pregnancies. Apparently, she had a condition known as 'berryism' which had many symptoms related to fruit like bodily conditions. This condition was most well known for the massive swelling with juice to a degree that left the individual spherical or near that state.

While she had been monitored for several days after her pregnancy, there were no complications and thus the agency maintained minor observation of the area believing that the aliens had relocated. Inko had even expressed slight concern over the many offspring she had given birth, which furthered her observation period. However, agents were alerted to her very motherly nature by her human children. Thankfully with their perspective, Inko was deemed a non threat for future possible outbreaks or infestations. Jennings was quick to recognize her and learned that the first pregnancy was used as a litmus test to see if there were any compatible for a proper Stella pregnancy. A test which Inko had passed with flying colors.

Upon Gilman coming to speak with Jennings, she filled him in on who Inko was and her situation. With a sigh, Gilman knew that this would be a far more complex situation as he radioed in with an update to the agency and incoming containment teams. The entire farm was quickly set up with a proper containment barrier to prevent not only any animals from entering the property but to also keep any drones from wandering too far. Thankfully, it seemed as though the drones only had interest in Inko herself and only ever wandered away from her when looking for anything she may have needed. The drones did not boast high intelligence and thus they often repeated the errands until done correctly or were chaperoned by one of Inko's human children.

Agents Gilman and Jennings met with and began coordination with Dr.Dunem as while this was not a typical outbreak and leaned more towards an infestation, it still fell under the doctor's purview. Inko was pleased that Dr.Dunem was willing to work with her and act in concert with her family to maintain the farm and their day to day operations while she was observed and treated. Dr.Dunem did express concern to the containment team that Inko's willingness and delight to continue her brood mother pregnancy and stay in that state may be signs of an altered mental state. Once again, Inko's children vouched for her mental clarity and held steadfast to the stance that Inko was perfectly fine.

This woman had been considered a 'refuge' for many different alien species and overtime became more and more receptive to alien offspring. Her body reaching a state in which she felt physically ill if not pregnant, though thankfully this was not truly the case. The constant influx of alien hormones to her body had caused her to crave pregnancy in a near addictive state and drove her to seek out aliens with a single minded drive.

When agents finally arrive to enact containment procedures, there were a total of fifteen different alien species fighting to use her body as a surrogate. Her womb became a major political resource among alien species after word of her saving dying species spread among the galactic community. There were talks of taking her in in an attempt to supplement armed forces, building up populations for terraforming efforts and even the possibility of increasing the work force on home planets of different species.
