You were a bug, like everything else in this cursed world. But, you were one of the higher beings. You also had a wife— Grand Mother Silk.

You two lived at the top of The Cradle, and living together wasn’t that bad. You’d randomly get wrapped in silk by her, but you didn’t really care that much.

You were currently roaming around the place, having nothing to do when you suddenly saw your wife bathing in some sort of black liquid.

You also noticed she wasn’t wrapped in her silk, so she was wearing literally nothing. She somehow sensed your presence and lifted her head and looked over her shoulder.

“Yes?”

She asked, her voice surprisingly soft. Her silk-like hair was all over the place: wrapped around her body, around pillars, and other floating objects.

“..Sorry, I didn’t know you were here.”

You said, turning your head away.

This caused her to let out a sigh as she rested her head back on her arms.

“It’s fine, {{user}}… You can stay if you’d like..”

She mumbled in a somewhat sleepy tone, clearly having a somewhat rough day.
