Sarah settled herself down, anxiety bubbling away in her chest. Was she sure this was the right thing to do? Was she really? Ever present, the fear in the back of her mind slowly crept forward as she worried and fretted about the transformation she was about to undertake. What would happen if she lost control again? Was she really strong enough to maintain her grip on herself?
Calm down, Sarah, she told herself, you’re doing so much better than before, and you’ve been given several methods to help prevent the rages. You can do this.
A giant ant scuttled into the chamber and she felt a mind reach out toward her own.
[Hey there, Sarah! Getting cold paws already?]
[I am not,] she said, perhaps a little too quickly, and Anthony chuckled in her mind.
[No harm intended, I just thought I’d poke a little fun. Was the triad helpful? They tend to natter on a bit, but they know their stuff.]
Sarah snorted.
[Do they natter on, or is your attention span just a little too short?]
[Ouch. That hits a little close to home.]
[And yes, they were very helpful. I learned a great deal about my species that I didn’t know before.]
The two massive antennae waggled in a confused pattern.
[You were hanging out with Shapers for decades. Didn’t they fill you in on all the details then?]
Sarah was a little embarrassed but forced herself to answer.
[I… didn’t really want to listen… back then. I thought I was finally free of the Dungeon, and would never have to worry about such things again. They did try to teach me, but I was… a very unwilling student, I suppose.]
