But old roots cannot stand at the top of the canopy forever and now a new mind has reached semi consciousness. The jungle world, asphodel breaths.
With this new life thoughts begin to form within it. Thoughts formed from a gentle and pleasant cradle. From the serene heights of mountain tops to lush seas of kelp and coral.
Lycaris welcomes its new sibling with confusion. For while made of innumerable individual beasts Lycaris still cannot yet fully grasp the idea of another hivemind within the ecology. So it attempts to reel in the gentle giant. Passing to Asphodel its memories. Memories of smog and disillusion. Of the destruction of the world. The gift of hate.
The streams continue to flow. Titans still walk among its gardens still. Tending the trees with care.
But now Asphodel knows well the dangers of the galaxy. And will be ready when they arrive.
>(diplo) gift of hate for asphodelAction 2:
As a first gesture of emergence Asphodel sends out its own seeds. To new planets not yet added to the ecology.
