34 Wretched War (1/2)
The war started off differently than expected. I had planned to start it up myself but, it seems that the wretched must have noticed something..... Perhaps one of them noticed Set despite her being stealthed and led the others to here? She has scouted out the stream quite a few times so, maybe being able to see through stealth is a rare skill that one of the wretched just so happened to have.
They haven't reached the nest yet but, it won't be long.
”Vulki. Xelu..... Well, Vulki take Xelu with you and chip away at the stream. Just command your spiderlings to fight as we don't know if more powerful wretched exist. Retreat if you need to. The nest is fortified enough to be withstand their siege and Kess' spiderlings can hold them down.” Gin
”Yes, master gin. Should we do anything with the corpses?” Vulki
Kess stares at me with expectation. I'll give a little I guess.
”Kess, when you are free you can have some spiderlings drag a few back. Keep an eye on the fighting though.” Gin
.....
Thinking on it..... They won't revive or anything right? Wretched are very diverse creatures, so they probably have a a lot of different skills and perks. There could even be parasitic variants..... Worst case scenario, She'd have to be put down and revived..... No, wait, Set's healing ability may be able to remove it.
Anyways a seperate larder will be built detached from the nest. For now though, the issue is to see how well we can deal with the wretched. Vulki and Xelu went out with a horde of spiderlings along with the occasional onesthat spawn and run out to support them. After dealing with the wretched comes building new spawners. Kess is doing that in her free time and I'll decide on how to allocate time for Xelu and Vulki to build them depending on how well we deal with the wretched.
There is something that makes me worried though.... What would happen if one of the broodmothers was eaten? Do the wretched really kill the things they eat and then assimilate or... Perhaps it would be similar to when I assimilated them? No use worrying. I told them to retreat in case things get bad for a reason.
