As the experimental device approached the end of its incubation process, the artificial Incubator began to generate a lot more activity.
The sensors picked up increasing emissions of all kinds. From heat to vibrations, the Incubator had clearly grown more energetic even as its integrity began to suffer.
Just as designed, the final minutes of the Incubator were spent on sacrifice.
Just as the original VOBM sacrificed its own vitality and high-quality matter to supply the final nutrients to its maturing embryo, the artificial Incubator broke itself down in order to feed the hungry experimental device.
The transfer process did not encompass matter alone. It also channeled notable amounts of E energy that the artificial Incubator previously accrued.
From parent to child, an age-old tradition took place once again, only this time involving completely artificial constructs as opposed to genuine organic beings.
