*Cegwitt’s tendrils quivered with excitement as Reo chose to side with the Fleshbeasts.* “Yes! He’s coming to us!” *The hive mind cheered internally.*
Alex, head of security, grinned as he saw Reo clinging onto one of his kin. “Good choice, kid! We’ll keep ya safe from those thugs!” He shouted, firing off a few rounds at the Ferelli militia.
The Fleshbeast Guardian, a towering monstrosity of writhing tentacles and pulsating flesh, wrapped its tendrils around Reo protectively. “Welcome, Reo. I am Guardian-01, your guide to the Central Mansion.” Its voice echoed with an otherworldly resonance.
The Guardian swiftly carried Reo away from the chaos, its powerful tentacles propelling them through the streets at incredible speed. The Ferelli militia fired after them, but the Guardian’s agility and the Fleshbeasts’ defenses proved too much for the criminals.
ARO: Phew! That was a close one, Reo! Looks like you’ve got the Hive’s full protection now. Just hold on tight!
