Through the reluctant ng'flgath of a Hurgkthorg strunthlg, I have as of late been experiencing what ghaa'ghu refer to as "emotions" - a rather uncomfortable experience. This is not without its benefits, however. I have begun to develop a deeper understanding of my prey, and with that, an understanding of the more useful emotions such as hate, anger, and fear. In fact, I've also learned how to ng'flgath G'kaxmang strunthlg, which have enabled me to channel my hatred and anger into a wild frenzy of bloodlust - a "berserk state", in the language of the ghaa'ghu. This has greatly increased my ferocity while feeding. A great advantage.
Another curious side-effect of my Hurgkthorgu has been a strange.. how should I say.. desire? A desire to.. connect with another life form - one of the extraplanar entities, called a "sunfish". The one I have chosen to bond with refers to itself as Xerox, but beyond that, I seem to have great difficulty processing its thoughts. As different as a shoggothim is to a ghaa'ghu, Xerox is to myself. I find my mind constantly bombarded by a bewildering array of thoughts and emotions, but I also find myself growing exponentially stronger. The creature is also incredibly useful whilst feeding - it seems to use its own plasmatic body mass to burn and incinerate my prey. It matters not to me should the organic materials I absorb be charred or raw - it is all the same to a shoggothim.
It also seems as though my carculgnath are reacting well to this bond. They are constantly changing form and density; creating new organs and absorbing old ones; awakening new and powerful strunthlg within my mind.
I seem to be experiencing a new emotion right now.. it is strange. Excitement.
