Chapter 416: Hearing of Madness
My siblings were looking like proper people, in the sense that they walked upright on two legs. In other senses...
They had taken on the semblance of beetles, or rather what a beetle-folk would have looked like. They had only the two arms and two legs, and their heads were in the right place. They wore their Chitin like armor; only Pink had kept the antennae.
They were short and squat, like dwarves, except they were clearly not made of stone and Violet, the largest, barely came up to my waist. <1>
Still, to make such profound anatomical changes in such a short period of time? They HAD been eating well, possibly better than I myself had.
"Stop looking at us. We all hate you." Blue said.
"You have all developed nicely." I said. "I approve."
The sound of rock striking rock resounded through the chamber. "The accused will address all comments to the bench!"
I gave a slight bow of acknowledgment.

Mike_Kochis Originally, the asylum was going to be AFTER Rhishi experienced the common custody (dwarven child services). Then I realized it would just be introduction to life at [interrupt] introduction to life at The Breaker's.
In other words, wasted time and energy. It was far easier to find a reason for Madame Doctor to be claiming people at the Ministerium. Once I had that, this chapter almost wrote itself.
