Sanrak was more of a cameo role, but he does play a bigger part in the new "Tentacle" story that I'm working on. Imadaeth will begin to have a new outlook on life too...
The Slig with the arm implant is in for the biggest shock of his life
Glad you like it so far!
Heres the next bit!

At first I think I'm dreaming, or else having a horrible nightmare. I then realise, that this is real. I looked at the purple tentacle that was oozing across my chest. I shudder at the sight of it. I look over my chest to see if there is any kind of lifeform lying near me, but I don't see anything. The oozing mass slides sickly over my chest, as if it was licking my torso and tasting my body.
At first, I thought this was some kind of sick Vykker torture... but then I remembered something the Vykker had said about an implant, "No... No...", I mutter to myself. Slowly, I turn my head towards my left side, and I feel a fresh wave of revulsion wash over me. I almost lose my composure over the sight I see before me, it threw my world upside down and left me screaming for a whole minute.
What I see, instead of a creature, instead of some kind of sick Vykker creature... is... well, I guess calling it 'a replacement arm' might be an understatement.
This replacement arm isn't metal, not wood either. This replacement arm was entirely organic. You wake up and your arm was replaced with a gigantic purple tentacle? Well, it just doesn't happen does it?
I then realised, I was in total control of where the tentacle was moving. I could move it in directions, I could even get it to loop around itself like some kind of snake. It wasn't quite like a thin Oktopi tentacle, it was like a V shape... with the larger part being attached to my arm. The smaller part was where my fingers would be, if I had them. I realise that the thing making the sick noises and liquidy sounds... was this thing. I look at it more closely. Around the tip of the tentacle, there is a kind of thin slit. I try and flex what used to be my left arm muscle. I jump back slightly as I see a set of razor-sharp teeth appear in the slit of the tentacle. This thing was like a leech, only a lot more creepy.
Only one thought went into my mind at that moment. "What have they done to me?". I let out a single tear and sob myself to sleep.
My name is Zale.
