He screamed, not in fear, but in euphoria.
"SUCCESS!!"
His voice echoed off the crystal walls, filled with manic delight.
The creature once known as Baelgor had succeeded. He had taken a human vessel merged spirit and soul with a mortal shell. Erin was no more. His body now housed something far, far worse.
Baelgor laughed, running his hands down his arms, marveling at the smooth, vulnerable skin.
"I'm… human now," he whispered in awe, as if tasting the words for the first time. "Weak. Soft. Pathetic."
And yet...
"So full of possibility."
He didn't seem to notice or care that he was completely naked. He flexed again, testing joints, feeling muscles move under skin. Every sensation was new. Alien. Exciting.
Then something caught his eye.
A nearby corpse.
