I have to say I’m quite excited to finally be able to evolve again. I know I should wait and pile on the Biomass but I simply can’t contain my excitement.
So I’m weak! Sue me!
Everyone has to have a weakness and perhaps this is mine. Rather than shovelling my face full of monsters’ sticky insides, as delightful as that sounds, I would rather be taking a brief nap and then waking up a whole new being.
It involves the consumption of less guts, for one thing.
I can’t help but get excited for the possible options that may be present to me when I evolve. The mind ant species has been good to me, dramatically increasing my strength and propelling me further along the path of magic. As great as it’s been, I feel like I need one more push in order to achieve a proper mastery of magic. If I have an option that will further enhance my mind I’ll be hard pressed to turn it down.
Before any of that though, I have to form the special core.
LET’S DO THIS!

GAWD ALMIGHTY!
MAH BRAIN!
[Core Engineering has reached level 6]
Worth!
After all of my effort I’m finally done! In front of me sits a new shiny special core, the announcement from Gandalf still ringing in my ears.
[Compatible special core detected ...]
Yasssss!
This mental torture is finally over! Despite being as mentally fatigued as I am I eagerly begin the absorption process immediately. Not even a microsecond passes before the truly uncomfortable squeezing feeling erupts in my guts.
NOPE!
I remember this feeling! It sucks!
