<span class="mu-r">”Ooohhh! Look at this warm fleshbelly! What a PERFECT host for larvals!”</span>
<span class="mu-r">”So much better then cold metal bellies! But alas, it's too small!”</span>
<span class="mu-r">”Much too small- not even close to the size of a calf. This is no delicious mother-whale belly.”</span>
“W-what do you want from me? Please leave me alone.”
<span class="mu-r">”And such a pure and untainted light- exactly why we like whales, isn't that right?”</span>
<span class="mu-r">”Mhmm. Such objective experience, untainted by thought- just <span class="mu-i">being</span>, what a wonderful place to feast! Agonized and living SO long to experience it-”</span>
<span class="mu-g">”Begone, vile worms! Leave my navigator alone. Else, we will burn your flesh as we did your forefathers.”</span>
“K-Kimnan!?”
<span class="mu-r">”Baaah! Not worth the effort. Big talk from an ape!”</span>
<span class="mu-r">”Cyte take you, Jaaxi! All of you! Heheheahaah~”</span>
You are now <span class="mu-s">Eoba Garastra II</span>, the <span class="mu-s"><span class="mu-i">Supreme Ruler</span></span> of the Hegemony and of the Jaxtian people. For the past fifty odd years, you have led your people. From the hardship of an uprising, caused in no small part by your own actions of slaying the previous Supreme Ruler in self defense, to dealing with an alien threat in the form of the <span class="mu-i">Aannel</span>- the vile space worms who seem to control the galaxy through shady backroom deals and social orchestration.
In response to your action of <span class="mu-i">destroying a nesting colony</span> of the parasite worms by exposing the innards of a space whale to sunlight, their one weakness- as well as <span class="mu-i">killing your last chance to submit</span> to the worms with your own hand- the worms have sworn revenge on you by something they call the <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">Cyte</span></span>. You ask your diplomatic contacts for any information.
<span class="mu-g">”The Cyte? That's bad. It is as a watchdog for the Aannel; their muscle in this galaxy. Since the worms have no civilization of their own, and can only steal and infest the works of others; the Cyte acts as their insurance. It has been a very long time since anyone has had the Cyte called against them. We'll check our records and ask around for any more information.”</span> Thankfully, your contact in the representative of the <span class="mu-i">Seekers</span>, an anti-worm spiritualist faction in the galaxy, is helping you to uncover more. Until the full details of this threat are revealed, you will have to put off dealing with it for now.
