Tales

1
Saida doesn't feel much. No rage or joy. Just one driving need... to survive.

2
No creature in existence rivals Saida's patience. Though to be fair, she is a creature untouched by the very concept of impatience.

3
Saida hates all kinds of extreme weather. Not that any of it can actually kill her. This Hypogean thrives where others merely endure.

4
Here's a little-known secret. Saida's eyes and ears work just fine. But she barely relies on sight or sound.

5
Generally speaking, talking to Saida never elicits a response.

6
Saida doesn't need water to survive, but when you pour water over her, she still seems to enjoy it.

7
Saida lives much like a plant. Unless she has to hunt for nutrients, she can stay rooted in one spot for centuries without moving a muscle. Only when her sustenance runs out would she finally stir.

8
Saida hungers not to multiply, but to endure. Each seed is no offspring. It is her own essence, coiled tight, waiting to reclaim the world.

9
Saida cares only for her own survival. Not reproduction. Every seed she spawns carries a piece of herself, a chance at rebirth.

10
If she wills it, Saida could hibernate for centuries. Whether bathed in Divine Light or buried deep in molten lava, she would wait as a seed until the moment was right to awaken.
