Belly of the Beast

"So this is an astral beast of the Red Ocean." A researcher remarked as his suited form flew outside of the shuttle that had flown into the inner belly of the Titania. "How… grand."

Hundreds more people equipped with hazard suits and scientific gear had already arrived in previous waves.

It took a bit of time, but once the Larkinsons became more certain about their conclusions, they were finally willing to bring in actual personnel in order to explore the dead astral beast in detail.

Several many different clansmen had volunteered to undertake the potentially dangerous task of examining and poking the giant carcass. Although it was a dangerous assignment, the Larkinsons did not lack for daredevils who wanted to experience the might and terror of the biofauna of the Red Ocean up close!

Bioresearch teams dispatched by the Dragon's Den took samples while trying to puzzle out the functions of different organs and groupings of flesh.
