”Kill her.” Set

”Educate?” Xelu

”Just feed her Xelu's web flesh. I turned out fine.” Vulki

Hmmm..... Surprisingly useless inputs have been given.... Kess and Set's choices are basically the same. Xelu is confused about the whole issue. Vulki's.... Well I'd rather not go through that again. I do have an open slot for a broodmother.... I don't even know it is a female. Can a male become a broodmother?

A shiver runs down my spine as my thoughts turn a weird direction. That is until I hear yells from the place we left the lizard person.We quickly return to see Vulki's spiderlings ordering Xelu's spiderlings to use their tentacles to....

”STOP! STOP!” Gin

”Ahhh. If only I had the same aspects that Xelu has I could-....” Vulki

I get a few confused looks from the spiderlings and Xelu while I hear Vulki mumble something weird. The lizard person is covered in a weird slime. I see tears build up as it looks at me....

”Pervert....” Intruder

She starts sobbing as a notification comes up to show that she has submitted and that she is extremely compatible to be a broodmother..... I swore to myself that I wouldn't.... These four are already a pain to deal with.....

”Master, I change my mind, I think she should be assimilated into a broodmother.” Set

”Why'd you change your mind?” Gin

”Well, I feel bad for her and she is not really corrupt. I just wanted to kill her at first but, it seems that you are really against that despite her stabbing Kess..... Seems to be the only option unless you don't mind the possibility of a massive leak of information.....” Set

I didn't expect Set to think on this matter so much. Looking at the notification I see that she is extremely compatible just as Vulki was so, I don't need to worry about another Xelu being created..... I'm really not a good person huh. Well lets go with it. I select Yes. The lizard person is whisked away leaving an empty cocoon.

I get a few options for aspects but, I leave it for now..... If I can aquire a way to somehow erase things from minds then I wouldn't need to worry so much about a leak. Both Vulki and this lizard person ended up being assimilated due to it being the only option that I wanted to choose. I want to prevent myself from becoming a ruthless killer..... There was technically enough reason for me to kill Vulki when she was a drow and also to kill this lizard person as she attacked Kess but, if you look for it, you can easily find reasons to kill anyone.

Just because someone slights you doesn't mean you should kill them or even burn in thoughts of revenge. Admittedly, when the drow scouts almost killed Xelu I raged a little. Even if she had died I could resummon her. However the sight of Xelu protecting me and getting chunks blown out of her had a huge impact. On top of that, those drow did that with full malicious intent so, I don't regret anything that I did..... Or that I had Vulki do....

Anyways I take a look at the aspects that are available and go into thought on what I should choose.
