Awaken my child
and embrace the glory that is your birthright.
Know that I am the Overmind -
the eternal will of the swarm, and that
you have been created to serve me.
Behold that I shall set you amongst
the greatest of my cerebrates,
that you might benefit from their wisdom
and experience.
Yet your purpose is unique.
While they carry forth my will to the innumerable broods -
you have but one charge entrusted to your care...
for I have found a creature, that may yet become
the greatest of my agents. Even now -
it resides within a protective chrysalis,
awaiting its rebirth into the swarm.
You must watch over the crysalis,
and ensure that no harm comes to the creature within it.
Go now. And keep safe my prize.
