From the ash of the Mount Nuwa the few surviving seeds of Experiment 4 took root and drunk deep of the rich soil and basked in the heat. Unlike its kin, the young seedling was weak so it had to hide in the crevices to grow in strength before venturing out for the kill. From its hiding place the small Experiment 4 Seedling watched the stronger saplings walk the black rock in search of prey. It stared in horror as wanderer came and mercilessly slew them all where they stood. In the dark, bitterness bloomed like a flower and, fuelled by its rage, the small seedling grew. It waited and slept for a time and it has now awoken with the strength to find the wanderer who murdered its kind. |
