Why did the Devouring Snake choose to invest all that messy energy and rules into its own evolution?
You are a Strange Story Creature, how could absorbing energy ever turn you into a Genesis Strange Story?
Without taking a bite from the origin of that world, without obtaining your own set of Genesis rules, no amount of energy can make you a Genesis Strange Story...
Bloodwind Root did not understand, but It dared not ask.
For It knew It was not particularly clever in this world; Its consciousness was chaotic, rudimentary, possibly incapable of understanding these profound principles.
The snake had emerged from a group of terrifyingly powerful Genesis Strange Story Creatures, so perhaps it really had its own considerations.
Bloodwind Root fell silent and ceased to interfere, aware that Its meager brain could not keep up with the Humans and Strange Story Creatures of the Real World; hence, acting purely on instinct was enough.
