The experimental combination of genetics from the insectoid species Vescarid, with the legendary human champion Darian, has given rise to a new species within the virtual world of Transcendence, designed to kill, consume, and proliferate. The young ruler of its hive must navigate into the world and grapple with their conflicting instincts--one urging them onward to consume, conquer, and lay waste to the world of Transcenence; the other yearning for answers, connection, and discovery. Above all else, one thing is certain... They must survive. *Cover art created through AI, but someday I would love to have it professionally remade.  *Expect new Chapters to be released daily at 11:00 AM PST/7:00 PM UTC. Subject to change as I get a feel for what I am capable of.
