Official description

Three interplanetary storks are travelling through space with the seed of life. Their objective is to reach three far-away, uninhabited planets on the edge of the universe. Flying over the planet Lukkat, one of the storks has an idea: "Listen," he says, "why don't we drop of our cargo here and then go for a drink?" - "But what if the Creator notices?" - "He'll never know"- "Don't tell me you are too scared!". Plop, and the first load falls towards the planet, followed by the other two. The storks then fly off to the inter-galactic bar. The three very different life forms they have left behind will now have to come to terms with each other on a planet they don't know and for which there were never destined...
