Chapter 4: Non-consensual treatment
The maker was alarmed. The human was unstable! She had not yet even realized that she lost her limbs and was bleeding to death.
The maker needed to do something quick about it. It was the maker’s fault that girl lost them. The maker had to cut them or else the human too would have been sucked in by a black hole. It was unexpected and it stung a bit but the human really did it, the thing the human se her mind to do. She was able to injure the maker.
It was a simple matter to close the prick, but still, it stung a bit.
The maker tried to stop her from bleeding out but it proved very difficult. The human acted like a cornered animal. With a missing leg, she limped to flee. The maker stopped her by grabbing her unsevered limb, but still she continued to struggle and thrash, she even went so far by trying to bite off the maker’s tentacle breaking her jaw in the process.
Blood squirted everywhere as she made an effort to escape. She needed to be stopped before she offed herself. The maker restrained her as fast as possible but she struggled, not letting up.
Should the maker just let her free?
It was obvious, If the maker let her escape, she won’t survive. The maker had no choice. It was too dangerous to let a wounded person go back to the surface. The maker’s sanctuary was filled with traps and danger. That was not an option, the maker had to make quick work here and now before the human died.

The maker attached himself to her, it would be painful but the maker needed to do it to be able to evaluate her condition, it was also a way for the maker to supply her with blood and nutrients in case she needed it. Once connected, all the hormones, all the nerves, everything that she was, was part of the maker.
The maker could feel the girl’s heightened emotion, all the pain she was under, the desperation, confusion, and the fear. The maker knew it wouldn’t be able to talk to her in their current circumstance, so it needed to use an alternative way to communicate; the maker entered her mind.
The maker was surprised, feelings of nostalgia arose within it, glimpses of what the girl call dungeons were actually the maker’s old sanctuaries, their hidden secrets and treasures even more valuable than the mere material that surrounded them, they were all contained within her, the treasures the maker cherished.
The maker wanted to look and delve in deeper but it seems the human, Silvia did not take it well when her mind was pried open. She voiced complaints and resistance, the maker tried to calm Silvia the human down but she took none of it. The maker stopped immediately, it knew that pushing it would not be good for her.
The maker did not mind it, the brief look to girls mind helped the maker understand her better. Silvia was just afraid, scared from her current situation, frightened of the wall of flesh. Frightened of the maker.
The girl, Silvia was just terrified, confused and in pain.
Even if the maker separated itself from her, the maker could still hear her, her thoughts, her plea to end her pain, to end everything, she asked for death.
The maker could do no such thing. The human had visited a lot of the maker’s sanctuaries and received all of their gifts and she was too mesmerizing to just let go. But still the maker wanted to grant her wish, a way to end her pain, the maker gave her sleep.
