Ira: No, spore does not touch other creatures. We do. --- Ampich-Anne: Trallyr are not a warlike race. In preparation for conflicts, they use the substance to make Individuals dedicated to upholding order and combat if needed. It is under military quarantine for numerous reasons. Glyph: If you touch a host, do your tendrils break off and bore into them to take them over? Are the spores just for making queens? ----- Fish: Back to the other types of Glyphos, can you tell me about them? Ira: No. And no. You think to hard. Spore makes more like me. I'm smartest. They follow me, so I am queen. Queen of spore. Little ones find host. Live there. Tendrils are for fighting. --- Ampich-Anne: Yes. I hope you will not mind me shortening their names. Type B is an apex predator. It takes over the host body completely as a nymph. It chooses whether or not to emerge from it depending on the circumstances. It has a unique hunting mechanism. it is the main predator of the Glyphos A. Type C is exceedingly elusive. It is truly sybiotic, the only of the three types (save for C-2) that does not kill or consume it's host. It feeds off of, and protects the host creature. Beyond this information, everything else is speculation. Both types have been confirmed to have the same range of hosting capabilities as the Glyphos A. she pulls up scientific diagrams. One looks like a large snake with arms and bug-like wings, the other has only a picture of what can be described as a hexagonal-patterned fungal structure.

Do spores hatch into little ones? ---- Fish: Is Type C used to immunize potential hosts against Gyphos A?

One spore makes many Little ones. --- Ampich-Anne: No. it is not common enough for testing. And it is not advised to inflict the negative effects of type C onto a host. No guarantee it will stop a type A.

What does type C-2 do?

What does type C-2 do? Ira: No. They just fall from spore. --- Ampich-Anne: The emotional and hormonal effects of the hosts are untested. Type C-2 is a close relative to type C. It is Sybiotic. Beyond a different appearance, we know little about it.

Grows big like ceiling. --- Ampich-Anne: No recorded occurrences. But they could, hypothetically, attempt it. But in another theory, the type C could block the type A physically, like it would block any attacker.

Non-living things like you are born? --- Ampich-Anne: Anything perceived as a threat, such as a large animal, or doctors syringe. Type C forms a strong shield against these.

And we are alive! We're just not made of the same stuff as you. We can slow down now, they don't seem to be following. Would you like some food? ---- Fish: Why a doctor's syringe?

Ira: *slows her pace, looking around* The concept is new to me. But I do like food. --- Ampich-Anne: It injects a substance into the bloodstream. The parasite most likely cannot differentiate between good and bad effects on the body, and prevents any, but there are theories that it can learn from experience.

Glyph smiled and held out her hands, scrolling through what insta-foods she knew off the top of her head that would be good for the current situation. She selected a cheeseburger, and handed it to Ira.Glyph: Have you had one of these before? ---- Fish: What about oral medications?

No killing involved, since this meat was never part of an animal. ----- Fish: Thank you for answering my questions. I can not think of any more right now, but as soon as I do I will ask them.

Ira: ... Where does the energy come from? I learned from human... Energy comes from star. Plant use that. Animal eat that. I eat animal. Where does the energy come from? --- Ampich-Anne: You are welcome. Would you mind accompanying me outside? Plumtrr has been sedated.
