Chapter 0 - Hungry Light

“Is this it?” Former First of the Sabre Clan, the Dalish Elf Merrill was disappointed at what she was looking at. Until now, Merrill had enough excitement to account for the whole group. The Dalish pariah was a pretty girl despite her lithe willowy frame. The slender elf had dark hair with green eyes and tribal tattoos upon her arms and her face. Her vestments were modified to reveal her bare arms and shoulders as well as her navel. A friend of her's who called her “Kitten” had given her the outfit to try out her “womanly charms” on a certain Champion of Kirkwall. The thin, form fitting cloth accentuated her small hips and breasts though the naive and confident elf seemed blind to this feature. Her long ears were pierced with emerald gems that hung from her earlobes.

“I believe so.” Josephine Montilyet answered, equally dissatisfied. “The cavern entrance matches Lady Nightingale's intelligence report.” Lady Montilyet was graceful and charming, a dark skinned beauty who had a bombshell body with soft voluptuous curves. Her long black hair freely flowed down her back in a long braided ponytail. Her enormous bust was compressed by a simple corset, plump thighs and hips hidden under a short mini skirt. Despite her highborn position, the only mark of her status was her golden necklace.

“In what way? It looks no different than the other caves.” An annoyed Natasla stated, sitting on a rock with one hand on her amethyst tipped staff. The red haired bodyguard's frustration was shared by most of the other members of this small band of explorers. Her gifted slender body was well drenched by the rain and her thin scarlet robes clung to her like rags, showing off even more of her massive breasts than normal.

The seven ladies were standing on the ever rainy storm coast in north-west Ferelden. Highever was a small ways south of the turbulent shore and the sea raged in unrelenting anger that went on beyond their sight.  Though promised a great reward for their services, the hired escorts were tempted to just leave. The rigors of the Northern Ferelden shore had tested their patience however and this latest apparent dud threatened to overfill their dissatisfaction.

On Merrill's word, they traveled through rain and storm to protect the Antivan noblewoman and her dalish friend. But it looked as though all of their efforts and misery would lead them to another dead end and that meant staying in this wretched self-destructive world longer.

Being professionals, they kept their emotions to themselves.

Josephine turned to her young aide. “Elizabeth? My notebook if you please?”

“Yes madame!” The young black haired girl agreed, pulling out Josephine's journal and handing it over to her employer. Elizabeth Comstock's outfit matched her mistress' though she wore leggings on her pale legs and her wide blue eyes blazed with innocence. The pinkie finger of her right hand was missing, covered by a silver thimble which seemed sensitive to magic and magical items. Like her lady, Elizabeth's massive breasts were compressed in her corset and were a notch firmer than Josephine's because of her youth.

“Thank you, Elizabeth.” Josephine said with a smile which Elizabeth returned. The diplomat opened the journal and flipped through many pages before finding what she was looking for. “Yes. According to intelligence reports, the entrance will be marked with stalagmites that resemble an upper jaw.”

Blue haired Adrianna stepped into the cave's entrance, the exotically beautiful elf sorceress brought out her sapphire sword. Her form-fitting mini-shorts and tunic outlined her athletic body. Yet, the tight outfit barely kept in her heavy bust as she held up the sword and illuminated it a silent spell. The shining sword revealed a series of long sharp rock formations and a path going into the cave. “The jaw of a dragon? This appears accurate indeed.”

“Then let us proceed-” The blond Cleric Alessia was held back by the dark-skinned elf with a blue tint to her body. “Ivari?”

“Never enter a cave lightly.” Ivari said with warning, her gigantic breasts moving with every motion of her beautiful though strong and fit body. With only an enchanted skimpy bikini made of rubies, some my wonder why she does not merely walk nude. However, though Alessia's surplice tunic covered more of her solid and busty form, her odd choice to wear nothing underneath it undermined the point of modesty. Even the diamond eye on her holy symbol only deepened the ditch.

Though Josephine noted her bodyguard's odd attire and attitudes for Leliana, she was more thankful to find something after days of walking through this ever rainy region. However, Merrill was increasingly inquisitive about the two elven contractors that she had never heard of before. She had only met one blue haired elf before Adrianna and had never seen any elf like Ivari.

With the darkspawn and venatori cleared from the area, Josephine saw no need for a full armed company. She preferred to move with hired and unfamiliar guardians as to keep the intent of the mission out of anyone's curiosity. However, she was certain that both the Inquisitor and the Champion of Kirkwall were close-by in the area just in case the danger was greater. 

However, Josephine and Merrill were in good company. For Alessia Faithhammer and Adrianna were the strongest champions of a Free Marcher city called Baldur's Gate. Shadow Knight Ivari and Sorceress Natasla were from an Anders fortress named Norrath and earned their mark fighting the darkspawn. As the Inquisition was infamous for paying its hired contractors ludicrously well, the champions of Baldur's Gate and Norrath expected to live like queens after their job was completed.

Young and curious Elizabeth was a native of Ferelden and yet was unlike anyone in her world. She was very aware of her existence as an alternate version of the true Elizabeth Comstock. Wishing to meet another version of herself, Elizabeth joined the Inquisition and came along as Josephine's personal aide to find the eluvian that Merrill believed was in this cave.

Unknowingly guarded by some of the strongest bodyguards that she could ask for, Merrill led the way into the dark cave. Her staff emitted a low glow so that they could see in the darkness, but to keep from disturbing any wildlife within the cave. 

The path through the cave was smooth, manipulated by dwarven architects long past. The sight within the cave was of dazzling beauty, precious sapphire lined its ceiling and its walls. Dazzled, the ladies looked all around them, the cave illuminated by walls that looked like a starlit sky.

“Marvelous.” Natasla remarked in awe, the light of her staff was purposely dimmed to keep from usurping the cavern's display. “Just marvelous.”

“Agreed.” Josephine replied, moving around a rock column and bracing herself when she felt her foot pulled down. Ivani grabbed and pulled her back, bringing both of their attention to the rocks that skid down the unseen ditch. They saw the rocks splash in dark liquid below, an unspoken warning to stay on the path. “Thank you.”

“Watch your step, Lady Josephine.” The shadow knight remarked and continued on without another word. Josephine looked down at the ditch below and continued on the path, careful to pay attention to the outline on the ground. Stepping beyond it would risk falling into that pit again and she did not care to find out if it was really water down there.

“They look like stars.” Elizabeth said, wondering to a colemn to hang off of it and look right up at the blue lights above. “Hey! I think they're pointing somewhere!”

“Come to think of it.” Merrill noted astutely. “You're right Elizabeth. Some clusters are gathering together...as if...leading us somewhere.” Some of the lights flashed brighter, drawing Merrill's attention more to the lights and less to the dark cavern around her. She was no alone, one by one, all of the ladies were drawn by the spell of the cavern lights.

“Let's...go...this way.” Ivani thought it odd that Natasla was pointing the direction where the lights were flashing more brightly. The dark elf figured it was better to in the direction that led away from the light. But considering when Josephine almost fell in, it was possible that going away from the light led into another ditch.

Adrianna was feeling uneasy as was Alessia. The light was certainly beautiful, but the cleric felt as though her patron-deity Helm was trying to warn her. Adrianna began to notice that there were no other creatures within this cave. All she could see were long broken and decayed egg shells or small brittle bones discarded and left alone.

“What is that?” Josephine pointed to the wall and Natasla brought her staff in the direction of the Antivan's finger. The ladies now saw a large and swelled organic covering that resembled an over sized pupa. It was stuck to the wall, held by many illuminated silk threads which reflected the light of the cavern. On closer inspection, the ladies realized that the walls and ceilings were covered with many of these pupas.

The question now was what was in them. “Merrill? Are these giant butterflies or moths?”

“I...I don't know.” Merrill admitted in panic, but the group still slowly moved in the direction of the greater light. “Anyone?”

“I read a book about this once!” Elizabeth called out in the dark. “There's a fungus gnat that emerges from pupa like these. They emerge to breed and then die.”

“Morbid.” Josephine commented, pushing a swath of silk threads out of her face. The threads stuck to her hand and gasped when she couldn't pull the silk off. “If someone could help?”

“One moment.” Alessia swung her short sword to cleave off the silk, allowing Josephine to pull off the rest. However, the cleric now saw that thousands of these threads were dangling down from the light-filled ceiling. “Does your book say anything about these?”

“I...I don't remember.” Elizabeth admitted, her eyes drawn to the dazzling silk lines that resembled shining chandeliers. The light seemed to be growing stronger as the women moved deeper into the cave. Ivani, Adrianna and Alessia had their blades drawn while Natasla and Merrill were on guard with their staves. If there was an eluvian in here, it wasn't improbable that something was guarding it and it would be something dangerous and deadly. For that reason, Elizabeth and Merrill stayed behind their armed guards to keep out of the way.

Above the nubile women, a group of hidden stalkers peeked out from their silk hammocks. They were slender creatures, each were long with their soft bodies divided into multiple segments. Their heads were hardened and appeared as mouthed capsules on the tips of their anterior. The light emitting from their posteriors hid them from the keen sight of their quarry. Their tails glowed due to bio-luminescence, a reaction between the chemicals given off by the glowworm's body and the oxygen in the air. This chemical reaction produced the light in the cavern and the glowworm could instintively control the lights illumination by reducing the oxygen in the posterior light organ.

There were many thousands of these glowworm in the cave, using their snares to trap insects for food until it was time to cocoon themselves. But a few were much larger due to an ancient enchantment granted to them by the elven guardians long past. The elven lords kept a treasure hidden in this cave and enhanced a colony of gnat fly eggs so that their progeny would be many times larger and more endurant to physical or magical harm.

Three and half meters long, these luminescent larva were the latest generation to guard the forgotten cave. But they knew nothing of their purpose, they knew only to feed on any who wondered into this cavern. Many had entered here by chance, misfortune or purpose, but none ever left alive.

The women below would be no different.

“Perhaps it would be best to find the Inquistor and Champion Hawk-” Josephine looked on as Merrill reached out for one of the silk chandeliers. “Merrill! Leave it be!”

“It is so pretty.” Her green eyes torn between the light above and the illuminating threads, the delicate dalish elf grabbed the lines in her hands. She giggled at the glow in her sight even as Elizabeth moved to her to get her away from the light. “It is alright Josephine! No spider can harm me.”

Though Merrill had indeed fought and slain packs of giant spiders, Josephine was not convinced. “Leave it alone! We should just go back.”

“Go back?” Natasla protested. “I didn't get drenched from days-long rain for nothing!”

“We should listen to Lady Josephine, Merrill. Would you kindly-” Elizabeth looked up and her eyes widened in horror at what she saw. As Merrill was about to ask Elizabeth what she saw, the threads stuck to her hand yanked her off of her feet and into the air.

Both girls were screaming when the others sprang on the hanging Merrill to free her. Though her hand was freed, Merrill's legs were caught by more threads and she was left hanging upside down. “Help me!” Droplets of liquid ran down on the elf's body, dampening Merrill's robe and causing it to cling even more to her slender body.

“There's something up there-” Losing her step, Elizabeth fell back and plunged down towards a black nothingness. The loud splash from Elizabeth's fall alerted Josephine as she walked towards the source and saw her aide struggling in a pool of lurid sludge. 

“Damn it! It's too strong!” Ivani protested, her blade was not strong enough to cut through the threads when they were clumped together. Alessia was faring no better with her sword despite channeling sacred energy into the weapon. Merrill had dropped her staff, helpless as she was slowly pulled up towards the light that had entranced her so much before.

Alessia held up her arms to try cutting down Merrill again. “Hold on, my lady! We'll save you-” Instead, her arms were caught on the powerful silk that she had failed to notice and she too was pulled off her feet, her blade dropping to the ground with a loud clank. Ivani had stepped on a long set of thread herself and was pulled off of her feet and unintentionally wrapping her shins in the threads.

“Elizabeth! Stay calm!” Josephine called down to the panicked aide who was shivering and looking around her frightfully. “Once we save Merrill, we'll come down to you-” In her struggles, Ivani unknowingly swung herself into the Inquisition's Top Diplomat and Josephine was sent tumbling down into the pit.

“Lady Montilyet!” Adrianna called out and leapt down the ditch towards her clients. “Natasla! Save the others!” The blue elf sorceress' action was not without reason, she judged her clients to be less capable of fending for themselves than her fellow mercenaries and Merrill. She also figured that Natasla would be able to free them.

Unfortunately, the sorceress just smirked. “Why?” She said to herself, looking up at the struggling elves and cleric, now seeing the translucent worms hanging out of their silk hammocks. Now with all of these bitches doomed, there was no one to stop Natasla from attaining the eluvian for herself. At her position, she could fire a fireball at the worms and save her companions, but she wouldn't. The translucent worms had earned their meals fair and square, who was Natasla to deny them?

Natasla's words were heard by the struggling Ivani. “You're going to leave us like this! Help us!”

“I was going to slit your throats in your sleep.” Natasla taunted as her former companions were slowly pulled up towards the worms whose semi-transparent bodies revealed their innards. “But this seems more convenient-” Whether by chance or karma, the sorceress walked straight into a powerful web with her face firmly stuck against the chandelier. Before she could try to burn this cave to the ground, her arm was caught in another silk trot line and her staff was knocked to the ground. Leaving the sorceress helpless she was yanked off of the ground towards a hungry worm above.

Many feet below, Josephine wiped mud from her face and found herself in thigh deep sludge. The mud was lurid and syrupy, clinging to her legs as she wade towards the stunned Elizabeth. The diplomat felt as though every step awaited something that grabbed and held down her leg. The mud was deeper in some areas, as she found out when she stepped into a sinkhole up to her chest. Much mud had sipped into her cleavage and dress by the time she made it to Elizabeth. “Remain calm, child. We will not sink, the mud is not deep enough. The others will come and help us soon-”

“Look!” Elizabeth screamed, bringing Josephine's attention to the frightening shapes which emerged out of the sludge. Ten foot dark gray slugs emerged out into the lightly lit air, their foul skin covered in fine hairs that tingled when they touched the free air. “We have to get out of here!” 

Despite her attempts to remain composed, Josephine was visibly frightened. “Agreed. Let's not wait.” She and Elizabeth tried to wade out of the circle of worms, but it was no use. Everywhere they went, there were more worms blocking their path and closing in them. They moved slowly, but they were in groups and organized to trap their prey.

The true horror revealed itself when several slugs' anterior portions opened to reveal a long fleshy pink proboscis which moved towards them with an open circular maw lined with a rows of foot long spikes. The worms tubular mouths gaped at the two ladies, clearly hungry for their soft flesh as most live prey was consumed by the glowworms above.

Josephine was struck first, her rump latched onto by one worm as another grabbed her breast and sucked in the supple mound. To Elizabeth's horror, the worm's deceptively thin form stretched and expanded to account for its victim. The worm's suction caused Lady Montilyet to gasp, her tit thumping with each slurp from the hungry worm. Josephine cried out, attempting to dislodge herself as the worm at her rump kneaded its mouth over the plump ass cheek, a rogue spike brushing over her pussy and making her shriek.

Elizabeth couldn't tell if the worms were trying to eat Josephine or molest her, but she waded over to stop it. But another worm spotted her and lunched with its mouth. Elizabeth swerved right to avoid the worm's attack, but as she turned to Josephine, her vision grew dark as another worm grabbed the top of her head. Elizabeth cried out, her head moved in circles as the worm stretched itself down over Elizabeth's face before she could scream.

Josephine managed to free herself from the two worms, though it cost her corset and her skirt, leaving her with only a thin lace thing to cover her pussy. Her nipples were hard from the stimulation those meat weasels had given her and heat worked with fear to increase her heart beat. Hearing a scream, the lady turned and saw Elizabeth's legs kicking frantically. The worm that gobbled her head now moved down her neck and soon expanded toward her shoulders as other worms bit onto her thighs and chest. Each bite tore off more and more of Elizabeth's corset and dress, other worms latching onto Miss Comstock's bare bouncing breasts in blind hunger.

It was a vain attempt to steal a prize, but it only added to Elizabeth's misery. Josephine could hear the poor girl moan, her body convulse from the unneeded and unwanted orgasms that the worms touch was giving her. They gnawed at each other, demanding rights to Elizabeth's wide nipples as though they were sucking them for nourishment. Elizabeth shuddered helplessly, feeling a worm force its way in between her legs and latch onto her labium. Josephine powerlessly watched the creature orally assault her friend, Elizabeth's legs kicking less with each climaxing shake that surged through the aide's body.

The diplomat lost track of her own peril however and was pulled off of her feet. She hit her head in the sludge, dazed as a worm began to pull her enticing legs into its maw. The worms fit over their victims like sheaths, Elizabeth's full and massive breasts becoming visible through the elastic worm's body as were Josephine's legs and soon her thick thighs. Once more, her breasts were subject to the cruel mouths of these wretched beasts, their sucking motions puffed and stretched her tits. The moaning diplomat was left unable to know if it was the molesting worms that were worst or the one that was moving dangerously close to her crotch.

Up upon the cavern ceiling, the glowworms were hanging from their hammocks and meticulously reining in their prey. Much like the smaller larva feasting on stilled and living insects, these glowing guardians were rewarded for their forgotten purpose with the ensnared ladies trapped in their threads. Without eyes, they sensed the luscious content of their quarry, making them grow brighter to indicate their hunger.

Still suspended upside down, Merrill sobbed and tried desperately to summon her mana and burn the silk holding her. But something was blocking her focus, perhaps it was the globs that were making her form increasingly lubricated and wet. Despite her struggles, she was being pulled up by a now visible and swelled worm which devoured each piece of thread that it pulled into its mouth.

She turned her head, looking to see a desperate Alessia kick her legs and try to disentangle herself. But it was a losing battle, the clerics head was being pulled closer and closer to the worm above until it was close enough to open its mouth and attach it to the top of Alessia's blond hair. Both hands below her head, Ivani was next to be grabbed, her feet being pulled into the waiting mouth of the worm as the shadow knight cursed and screamed.

Natasla's muffled screams grew more hateful as the worm above her began to mash its mouth over her long red hair. Merrill tried to take some satisfaction in watching the sorceress' head vanish inside of the worm's distended mouth, but it was a hollow effort. Besides, Merrill's condition was no better and she looked up to see the worm above her open it's mouth and engulf her bare feet. Though harder than the rest of its body, the glowworm's head was surprisingly flexible, capable of stretching itself to consume prey many times wider than itself.

Seeing the seemingly thin worm take in her feet brought true panic into Merrill's eyes. When she was swallowed up to her shins, Merrill stopped struggling. Caught in the webbing which the worm would be consuming as well and deprived of her magic, the dalish pariah had chosen to accept the inevitable no matter how painful it might be. The worm had no teeth, so at least this death would not be painful, the worm's spittle running down her already wet body and dripping down to the floor below. The worm's gullet wrapped tightly around Merrill's dainty legs, twisting and mashing on her pale skin as the worm savored the start of its meal.

Ivani twisted and pulled when her legs were taken into the worm's mouth. She had not become a champion of norrath to become the feast for a measly worm. But all her struggles did was to tear her ruby garments, sending dozens of ruby gems down to the floor or leaving them stuck to the silk threads. Ivani was left utterly naked and helpless to the degustation of the worm savoring her body. She felt its spittle run down her skin, rinsing it in a foul bath that chilled the dark elf. Her enormous breasts dangled and wobbled with her twists, nipples kindled by the runny gob that splash over her tits, hardening them and making the elf's breath quicken.

Gobbled up to her shoulders, Alessia was not even able to fight back with her arms stuck to her sides. The spittle and clutching mandibles of the worm weakened her surplice, causing it to fall down and exposed her beautiful and wet body to the open air. Not unlike Natasla, whose skimpy robe had long been discarded to the ground next to her staff. The sorceress struggled with increasing despair, the worm enticed in the taste of her fair body as her humongous bust was tasted and swallowed. Each breast was squeezed by the tight mouth, swelling against the sorceress' chest and leaving them flushed. The cleric could only scream a muffled cry as the worm sucked upon her bust, entrapping her teats in a wall of lingua that tasted every inch of the poor pale blond.

Adrianna slid into the mud pit just as the worms ripped the thongs from Elizabeth and Josephine. The elven sorceress was shocked at the sight, but casting a spell now would risk killing her clients. It was a risk, but she would have to cut her way to them with her sword. Melee combat was not her specialty and she was not physically strong, but she had no choice if she wanted to save the ladies or herself.

The enchanted sapphire blade hacked at a worm that tried to grab at her. The elven sorceress hacked again and again until it fell apart into the sludge and Adrianna continued into the fray. She cut and slashed at other worms trying to grab her as well, some retreating when they saw that she was not helpless prey as the other two ladies.

She finally reached the pair of worms consuming her clients, Elizabeth's abdomen hung out of the worm's mouth with the rest stretching the probosis with her opaque form. Josephine had awoken and had both arms trapped in the worm's maw as it moved over her hips. The suction of the worm's advance had the diplomat's cunt in its path, causing Josephine to infrequently writhe with ardor. Disarming her further to the worm that latched onto her dark luscious body with uncompromising strength.

“Save Elizabeth!” Josphine screamed out, gasping as the worms innards probed her exposed genitals and made her moan despite her peril. Suddenly, a worm struck upon Adrianna's back and made the elf scream and twist, trying to slash the attacking worm. Her tunic was torn and ripped from her body when Adrianna finally freed herself and decapitated the worm with a single two-handed slash.

“Be still!” Adrianna commanded, running to the worm that was stretching its mouth over Elizabeth's hips and cut just below Elizabeth's head. The worm fell dead into the mud and Adrianna cut through the worm's membrane to pull out a coughing Elizabeth. “You must save yourself! I'll get Lady Josephine!”

“No! She's my friend too!” With no time to argue, the two women made their way to Josephine's worm as it was moving just under her enormous tits. Elizabeth reached for Josephine's armpits to try and pull her lady out of the worm's maw. Adrianna made glancing strikes at the worm's head, trying to get it to release Josephine as trying to hack into the pink tube may injure the diplomat as well.

Just as she found an opening for a killing blow, Adrianna felt something latch on top of her head. She looked up to see that a worm was pressing its mouth over her exotic hair. Adrianna tried to turn and hack the worm, but her free hand was caught and swallowed by a smaller worm as she screamed out in frustration. The smaller worm held her in place, keeping her from turning as the larger worm expanded and pulsed its maw over Adrianna's head.

“I've almost got you!” Elizabeth assured as the weakened and wounded worm did not stop Elizabeth from pushing Josephine out of it's mouth up to her hips. “Just a little more and-” Another worm grabbed Elizabeth's shoulder and threw her into the mud. As she got up, she felt something grab over her legs and realized that another worm had engulfed them. The worm pulled itself up, letting gravity help it to swallow and secure a frantic Elizabeth as she saw Adrianna's jiggling tits become consumed as the elf dropped her sword. Unpressured, Josephine was again sucked in by the wounded worm who slowly reclaimed lost territory and savored the diplomat's flat belly.

Watching and feeling her slim midriff get sucked into the worm's maw, Merrill wished she were dead. This was not how she had wanted to die, her nubile body being consumed and engulfed by a worm covering her like a sheath. She would rather have died at the hands of a red templar than be eaten like this. Why would nature treat her like this when she had treated nature with nothing but reverence and respect?

After her immodest pale breasts were consumed, it was easy for the worm to gobble down Alessia. She couldn't put up any resistance and the kicks of her legs grew weaker and weaker with each surge of the worm's maw as it stretched over her hips.  Ivanli was tearfully crying, the shadowknight's massive breasts sucked in one by one as the dark elf gripped onto the silk in a vain gesture of defiance. The worm took a moment to savor the taste of her dark nipples, forcing the dark elf to writhe in lustful agony.

Overcoming her wide hips, Alessia's spittle coated legs were quickly and easily pulled into the worm's maw. Ivanli was soon to follow, her head slowly gobbled as the dark elf screamed out one last curse. Her arms held onto the silk, but soon her hands lost their strength and they too were eaten along with the ruby sprinkled silk.

Natasla's body bulged the body of her predator, her feet were all that dangled out of the worm's maw. It was an anomaly that did not last, the worm quickly sucking in those last bare feet and closing its mouth as Merrill saw the sorceress through the worm's semi-transparent body. As would soon happen to her, the three companions were being moved down the worm's innards towards the gut for storage. 

In the sludge pits below, Elizabeth's hands were hitting the worm that moved over her hips. The worm slammed down on its side to hit the girl into the mud and took a moment to savor the taste of Elizabeth's cunt. Elizabeth kept consciousness, but she was dazzled and bending her back from the massage that the mouth devouring her was giving her body. She frantically reached out her hand to where Josephine and Adrianna were losing the fight for their lives, not wanting to be alone to the touch of this foul creature. 

“No! Maker! No!” Josephine was crying and sobbering, her supple breasts were tasted as they were sucked into the worm's maw. Once inside, her nipples were bombarded by constant soft assault by the worm's innards. She moved and rocked her shoulders, trying desperately to keep herself from being swallowed any further. But with one more final scream, Elizabeth could only watch Lady Montilyet's head vanish into the worm's elastic mouth.

Adrianna's predator held her upside down, her legs forced apart and her shorts ripped to reveal her pussy. As the worm gobbled down her stomach, another worm latched onto the elf's pubic mound and orally violated the champion of Baldur's gate. The horrific sight did not last as Adrianna's hips were sucked into the hungry worm and forced her thighs together. Gravity did the rest of the work, allowing the worm to easily suck down the elf's legs and close its maw over her feet.

Elizabeth cried openly, feeling the worm move up to her chest and coat her trapped body with its foul inner juices. She had had nightmares about the fates of other Elizabeths, but she couldn't imagine any who had one worst than she did. She would be nothing but food and there was nothing she could do about it. 

She screamed out when her breasts were consumed and her large nipples were scrapped against the inside of the worm's mouth. She felt as though she were being violated, but this was far worst. She was going to be a pit worm's food and all she could was scream. The worm reached her neck and with one last look at the enticing lights above, the worm sucked in Elizabeth Comstock's head. The arms were quickly slurped in as well though one aspect of Elizabeth's hand was snapped off and thrown into the sludge.

“Hawke...Isabella...someone...anyone...” Her small breasts visible through the worm's form, Merrill's tears fell from her face as her neck was sucked into the glowworm's slobbering mouth. “Someone...help me...” Before she could pray to her people's gods, the worm pulled in her head, the elf's last sight was on a dim light coming from deeper within the cavern.

Engorged and satisfied, the over-sized glowworms pulled themselves into their hammocks to rest and wait until digestion began. Their captured and struggling prey could be seen through their luminescent bodies, held within tough crops where digestive fluids would soon fill in a few days. In the meantime, the sorceress, the cleric, the shadow knight and dalish pariah could only writhe and wriggle, waiting for the inevitable or until they ran out of air and lost consciousness.

The pit worms metabolism was much slower, which meant that the humans and elf inside of their engorged bodies would have to wait longer until they were broken down to bare nutrients and minerals. The fattened worms would be the ones who would use this nutrition to lay eggs and ensure the survival of their endangered species. The others would have to settle for the cut corpses of their dead and for the wounded too weak to heal.

It was a pity truly. For if the unfortunate victims had stayed the course, they would have found the eluvian perfectly preserved and ready for usage. But alas, they would have passed the forgotten test in order to do so and the travelers failed as many others had in the ages. When one would pass the test and come upon this eluvian, they would have access to great treasure, power and knowledge to rival an ancient elven king of Arlathan.

Until then, the cycle of life would continue for the glowworms and the pit-worms. The glowworms would soon molt and morph into pupas that would sprout over-sized adult gnats. The only purpose of the gnats would be to mate with another gnat or a worthy host and then die. But the eggs would hatch to create a new generation of glowworms who would be stronger and larger than the last. In the meantime, the meat-weasel pit worms would stave off extinction with the scraps from their distant cousins.

But that is another story for another time.

And by that time, there would be nothing left of the unfortunate heroines. 

All that any would find would be several pieces of jewelry which were indigestible to the now cocooned worms:

Some scattered rubies;

A diamond holy symbol of Helm

An amethyst tipped staff

A sapphire blade

A silver thimble

A golden Antivan necklace

and a pair of emerald ear rings.

All illuminating and enhancing a deceptive glow from the Hungry Lights above.
