at once short of life, and long of sorrow.
[You are dead.
Well, obviously. You remember how you died. It was...not fun, to say the least. But hey, at least you're off that ship, right?
Except...you don't know exactly where you are now. It seems like a house, but if it is, it's...a work in progress. Most of the rooms are empty, and your steps echo up through the marble columns and down faint mosaics on the tiled floor. The few windows you find have a green light gleaming through them; you can't really see anything beyond the eerie light.
It feels like you're in a temple of some kind. The columns and mosaics seem to indicate it is something like that-it's certainly reminiscent of something out of an ancient culture, perhaps even one you're familiar with. For some reason, though, it's clear someone-or something-lives here. One of the rooms to the south is stuffed with pizza boxes. Another, larger room has a makeshift futon in one of the corners. There are imprints of multiple footsteps all through the dusty floors as you look around, many of them leading to a small alcove to the west. And-
and there's a giant van. Just. hanging out there. Completely out of place with the seemingly ancient decor. And inside, there is the sound of light snoring.
Ok then. You're apparently not alone in death, after all.]

He tries to get away from the second tentacle by dodging to the right, but he isn't fast enough.
Crack.]
GGGRGH-
[He manages to mostly get away, but his left arm is now hanging limply at his side, a testament to his hubris as he manages to swallow down a pained scream.
He can still fight, but it's a sharp reminder he's nowhere near the endurance, speed, and regenerative capabilities of a Heroic Servant.]
Ha....I suppose....you did just that, but-!!
[Gritting his teeth, he raises his right hand, sending out another black hole at the offending root and hoping to inflict some damage right back.]

[The parasite laughs as its next root goes for a bitey bite. It does not notice the black hole going for its second root, but it is already moving that one to go take a chomp at Brain...]

Being down an arm - doesn't mean I'm not still a threat, you puerile parasite!
