[Listening to him, Wayne gets the feeling that perhaps this guy might like a position in the Afterlife hub, where some of the more vulnerable larvae are kept and the pools enable much easier transportation back to the surface.

He nods some. Pratt's done his homework, or else he's from somewhere not far from here so he's generally more in the know. Either way, it saves him from having to explain as much.]

Yeah, lots of nutrients. Problem is when they overgrow you get poolmen and even worse, you get poolmagne and those bastards duplicate way fast. Puts the larvae at risk.

[He reaches over and scratches the space between the horns of the larva that Pratt is holding.]
