Bab 125: Ch163. Sickness - 18 (Dark questions, overwhelming answers...)

"The Nests... Are they connected to... Earth?"

The woman before Kurt nodded.

As the minutes passed, as they talked, or rather, as Kurt heard his mother's voice coming from the mouth of that body, identical to his mother's, talking about other worlds, the beginning of the universe, and everything else...

It was as if the shape in front of Kurt was losing the deep meaning it had a few minutes before.

It was as if the person in front of Kurt no longer looked like his mother, but rather, just a person who gained much more vast knowledge than Kurt's.

Nothing more than that.

Upon seeing the woman's head nod in front of him, Kurt pinched his chin with his index finger and thumb, as if he was scratching a beard that wasn't there.

"Are you trying to tell me that the Nests were a plan hatched by Kha'Ur from the beginning? That he wanted to get here somehow?"

The woman's lips twisted downward, ever so slightly.
