Rommath hadn't lost his mind; in fact, he was positively euphoric.
He emptied his vaults, pulling out every precious resource, rare elixir, and nutrient suited for a larva, and laid them all out for the broodmother Laito to devour.
Hahaha... it seems my new master isn't some destitute beggar after all! Look at all this premium stash! Laito thought to himself as he gorged. As a bound broodmother larva, he was the absolute top priority. To this elf, he was a treasure of infinite potential.
Perfect. Absolutely perfect, Laito schemed. Not only can I use this to stay hidden and rebuild my strength, but I can also operate in the shadows to see exactly what those old rivals of mine are plotting.
Hmph... you bastards wanted to ruin me? Now it's my turn to ruin you. I'll start by sabotaging your grand invasion! I'll force your descent early and drag you all into a catastrophic, bloody war. Hehehe!
