←The Maker | Animata (Story) | Intruder Alert!→
Animata is the sixteenth chapter.
16.1[]
- A voice like an animal's cry reaches your ears.
- "Ani...mata?"
- "It's a ship. A ship that travels the stars!"
- The colossal starship's interior contains entire worlds.
- Her hull is pregnant with all the lands on which she has detected life.
- Those who knew no better would likely proclaim they were saved by the power of the Maker.
- And they would be unaware that their god is now burning through the life energy of one maladroit man.
- You exit the chamber to find the scene outside utterly transformed.
- You are no longer underground, in a womb, or even on solid ground.
- This is unmistakably the inside of a ship.
- But it's a ship with its own ecosystem and predators striding about.
- "What the hell is going on here?"
- A voice like a animal's cry reaches your ears.

- "Yeah? Well, let's hear all about it. And tell us what the deal is between you and Pepropé while you're at it."
- "Yes, of course."
- "All right, first question. Where exactly are we?"
- "This is Animata--a sentient starship."
- This is Animata -- a sentient starship

16.10[]
- Princess Palpa has now told you all she knows.
- Faith is the foundation that supports the Maker and the creation of the world.
- "I see...I think."
- "To think such a secret underpinned our world."
- "If you all get what's going on here, could someone explain it to me?"
- "In other words..."
- The stonefolk are fuel to power the world.
- The overworlders are food to flesh it out.
- And the Maker is the world itself.
- "You've totally lost me. First of all, what's so special about Princess Palpa and Pepropé? How are they different from your average stonefolk?"
- "I am the core that drives the Maker--the lifecore."
- "So you're not just fuel, then?"
- "Correct. I can become one with the Maker--or rather, I can become the Maker herself."
- "S-seriously? So has Pepropé become a god, too?"
- "No. Only one of royal blood can be the lifecore."
- And the Maker is the world itself.
