Darkness had enveloped the world. She could not even hope for salvation at this point. The only thing that was keeping her same was a faint connection she felt in her mind. A connection she had not felt in 5 long years. A connection she thought she would never feel again. The connection she felt was bitter sweet. She longed for the presence of her wife, but a lot had happened in her absence.

Hylia looked at her children before her. There were many. Hundreds of juvenile Homoarachnis scurried in front of her. They did not walk on two feet like her, rather they walked on their extended spider legs. Their arms and legs joined these legs, making them truly seem like spiders. This could not be helped, as their other parent was in fact a spider.

Hylia could not help but shiver at the thought. The demi goddess of spiders Peur, had taken a liking to her, and had silently stocked her for who knows how long. One night, while she had been the night watch Peur had taken advantage of the situation and made her move.

The fight that ensued was rather intense. The other members of the party had been woken by the rucus, and quickly joined in on the fight. Ultimately they had not been enough to fight off a demigod. Peur had taken advantage of this to latch onto Hylia.

The moment Peur had latched onto Hylia with her fangs she could feel an overwhelming force taking control of her body. The Demi god Peur, the godess of spiders was a parasitic type of spider. She soon buried herself into her prey, and made the body into her new habitat.

Hylia had been watching her body move under Peur's command for the last 3 years. She had watched as her body performed one horrible act after another. She had seen cities fall at the hands of Peur who was controlling her body. She had witnessed the demigoddess having secret meetings with the despicable bug god, and had heard rumors of her companions deeds through this.

From what she understood the remains of the party had joined a group that were resisting the forced of the bug god. The insect men had not all been defeated back in Slagstone, rather a small portion of them had managed to escape at the end.

These forces bread like their namesake, and soon their numbers had far exceeded that of what they had once been. What made it even worse was that they could use the body snatcher insect to add more numbers to their group from the town's and cities that they had attacked.

Because of this their numbers had grown endlessly. Humans were no longer the most populous members of the world, that honor had been taken over by the insect men.

Hylia shuddered at the thought. Ishra and Peur had plotted for a long time to make this happen, and when Peur had found out about Hylia she had decided that she would make the perfect host for her. It was a bonus that they would be able to make endless amounts of children from the unique talents of the race.

Hylia let out a sigh in her mind. Everything seemed to have worked out perfectly for the two of them. Their plans had come to fruition, and they both had incredibly strong armies. The Homo Archnis took around 2 years to develop. After this time they would reach mid teenage equivalent. Under the orders of Peur, they would then recieve the blood of one of the female insect men.

They would lay eggs, but leave them here for a special group of Peur's spiders to care for. The homo Arachnis would then undergo a basic training provided the the bugmen. Her children would become q horrifying force to be used against the forces of light.

Hylia had screamed in her head multiple times during the process, and had nearly lost her sanity. Up her her holy Domain the goddess of war was equally at her wits end. She was unable to take action, as all of her nearby shrines had been ransacked and destroyed by the bugmen. She was unable to descend, and unable to issue any orders to her followers.

This had gone on for years, until finally a visitor had arrived at one of her shrines. The visitor was the person she had not even dared to hope for, as she had believed she was dead. To her horror she was unable to respond to her, and could only look on in dismay as she eventually left the shrine, leaving it behind her.

This did not stop her from following Yuri. She watched as the woman made her way through the wastelands. She had changed, and she could feel that the powers she possessed no longer resembled either the god of archery, nor the Necromancer king. She could actually not feel a single trace of the Necromancer king on the girl, rather she could feel his overwhelming presence coming from the dragon that flew next to her.
