Wow, just WOW! The piece is whole unto itself, but also ripe for extrapolation.
Incredible journey.....some of my favorite parts:
"It must be recognized for what it is—an anomalous forfeiture of our abysmal imaginations of stark black astral emptiness and the sheer volume of dark matter and dark energy that dominate our multiverse..."
"Our lead research technician, Dr. Tam, forgot the word for ‘I.’ She wept as language deserted her, syllable by syllable."
"The filaments didn't pierce her skin. They insinuated themselves beneath it, threading along her nerves like invasive thoughts, blooming softly under her eyes like bruises made of light."
The graphics are excellent and precise. This reads like a transmission rather than a piece of fiction.
You fill this sack of muscle, bone, and nerves with an insurmountable joy at what creatively drives our synapses, Andrea, as we know you wouldn't level praise upon something if you didn't genuinely enjoy it. That makes us feel as though the more we radiate our authentic selves, the more we'll dare to say what we think without being overly self-conscious about where it might lead some would-be practitioner somewhere down the line.
We'll be doing more tapestries of verbiage and graphics like this in the immediate future. Maybe not within the same microcosm as this piece exactly, but it's all a part of the Z(enseider)Z arsenal of ficto-magickal hyperstition. This piece is simply one method we use to craft servitors, but we may detail some of the other, equally bizarre, modes for any of the magickal operations that exist within sorcery, shamanry, ritual, astral, and high magick such as enchantment, divination, evocation, invocation, and illumination.
Creating and maintaining a servitor is mostly an act of sorcery enchantment, shamanistic evocation, and maybe ritual divination spliced with astral illumination. Searching one's imagination for the piercing insights that hobble together such a piece of writing as this is assuredly an act of bare-handed (high magick) invocation. Taking into ourselves whatever directly configured, peripherally abstract, or indirectly random elements are necessary to decorate our canvas.
As usual I wrote far too much to you, but it's just a measure of how much I cherish your honest reactions whether they be "meh," "wow," "not today, pal," or anything in between.
We know that too. And we loves you back, dear sibling. Your book is the only tome we have on display among our belongings and altars. You laid the groundwork for what Z(enseider)Z embodies, believes, and lives everyday of its life, and in no cute language you propped us up on a pedestal that we feel all too humbled to ever live up to. Despite those shortcomings, we could not thank you enough.
That's an affable compliment. Our reciprocal thanks are abundant. This piece was the first of its kind in our repertoire, but it also marks the start of a new approach. Textually, this approach was in its infancy with the articles in: https://zenseiderz.substack.com/s/xenopredation

Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Matheny. It means a lot coming from a master of so many crafts.
Having only read this, as the first glimpse of your work and as itself—thank you. And, the layered myth here is uncannily woven. Well done.

I have all of this in me
Then it is your duty to unleash it.
