They Have Returned

Oh, how I love designing evil things. This monstrosity is the capital ship of the Malignance, one of the major bad guys in my Amaranth story. They seeded these things all over the world at the end of the last war, leaving them in a state of hibernation until the time came when they would be needed again. These ships are alive, you see--not in the way of the Lifeships of the Forest, creatures which serve of their own will, but as constructs, hideous amalgams of technology and necrotic flesh. As the Amaranth story opens, these things are just beginning to wake up.
