Chrysalis
Chapter 6
Though many of the modern kingdoms bray of their triumph over the Rending and the manifestation of their grand destiny, the College views these paper monarchies as they truly are: children playing castle in the crumbling remnants of a much greater civilisation.
It has also become surpassingly clear over the years that the lasting effect of the Rending on the human psyche is fear. Our race may never be free of the terror that took root when the very ground beneath our feet became our enemy, the source from which our nightmares sprung to life.

After a good rest, filled with the contended and happy feeling of being in my own enclosed space with a full stomach for the first time in this world, I awake refreshed and ready to (cautiously) approach my next challenge.
I need to further explore the cavern, gather more information on my situation and try to identify my next prey. Before that however, there is something else I want to try first. After eating, Gandalf informed me I had unlocked a basic profile of the Spineta Lacertos. I haven’t yet tried to access this profile, it’s time to experiment and see if I can learn something.
Unlock!
Access Profile!
Open Sesame!

Spineta Lacertos!
[Spineta Lacertos: Thorn Lizard, spines are sharp and contain mutated venom.]
Whoo! There you go! So the Spineta Lacertos is translated to Thorn Lizard and what is the rest of this information. The spines are sharp?! Contain venom?! Isn’t that obvious the first time you look at the lousy thing?
Well, it’s only the basic profile after all. Perhaps if I can hunt and consume more of them I’ll be able to access a more detailed profile with more useful information.
With that out of the way it is time pursue the next task.
Emerging from my nest I make may across the roof to the rock pool. A now familiar scene greets my eyes, a collection of monsters, types I have seen before, loiter at the waters’ edge, warily guarding against each other whilst drinking from the glowing pool.
In fact, with my newly improved +2 eyesight the pool seems to be glowing slightly more brightly than it did in the past.
