Harvested by the Tentacle Hive

Riven wakes inside a living chamber of pulsing light and shifting walls, bound by vines that tighten and loosen with a rhythm not his own. He remembers the crash. He remembers the darkness. But nothing prepares him for the presence waiting on the far side of the chamber, an ancient, bioluminescent Hive whose voice speaks inside his mind.

He is not a prisoner.

He is a chosen vessel.

As drones tend to him with unnerving reverence, Riven begins to understand the truth: the Hive is alive, intelligent, and searching for a Queen who can carry its future. The more time he spends in the chamber, the more his body responds to its influence, heat rising, instincts awakening, and a pull he cannot deny drawing him toward the heart of the organism.

The Hive does not force him.

It prepares him.

Honours him.

Claims him.
