The Clock Strikes Midnight

Write a story about a civilization that experiences time at a radically faster rate than humanity.

In this narrative, human scientists figure out how to communicate with this civilization and begin to share knowledge. However, as the civilizations start to integrate, the suspense builds when it’s discovered that the rapid evolution of the alien civilization may pose an unintended threat. What could the consequences be? How can this situation be managed? What cultural, scientific, and philosophical differences do the civilizations encounter?
