The bigger and more he consumes, the more powerful he becomes. Toxate has a vast array of cosmic energy, or at least I think he does. Anyway, I had visions of him and this system and two sets of alien civilizations either trying to escape or battling Toxate." He looked down in despair. "No one made it." Then he looked at Smoliin. "And I think one of them looked like you. I am not sure. I could be entirely wrong about this."
"Possibly," Smoliin said, "There are only three known races that look like my people, that's including my people. Wait, can you describe this 'Toxate' again? This being sounds somewhat familiar to me. It sounds kind of like a god a race that I once infiltrated worshiped. They disappeared about two years after I left them."
"Kind of bluish armour," Aegis started off. "Spokes on his helmet. Looks like he's wearing a metal skirt. With his powers, I'm guessing he can be any shape and size and do whatever he pleases." He wanted to say more; that Toxate wanted to destroy Sol and its planets, that he was to be his Herald. But decided against it. "Why would anyone worship the likes of him? He destroys stuff just to sustain himself and his powers. It's insane."
