Chapter 218

• [Primus]
• One moment, I am standing in my mate's room, the warmth of her body still fresh on my skin as the scent of our egg's birth tickles my nose, reminding me of my duty as a father and husband to protect my brood.
• And the next moment, it is all gone. The bitter chill of perfect darkness swallowed every trace of light and smell as the void takes me, removing my sense of self as I become less than flesh, my spirit free once more to travel faster than thought. It is an odd sensation, feeling like less than nothing, my heart still beating somewhere, yearning to be back where I was, back with the one most precious to me.
