You are not in a leviathan, your brood's leviathan died when Amon's forces had struck the world the queen had you protecting. A new Leviathan was being grown but the forms are not quick to grow. Zergling and drones are in constant motion patrolling the world for the forces remaining mostly the Protoss. There are many types of the first born this is the type of black and red, but the wrong type, you know there are black and red Protoss allied against Amon but you care little for things not of the swarm. You see a light and move back on your legs the spines on your body standing up ready to fire when you find the target. The world is growing brighter and you move your mind through the eyes of a thousand overlords and seers then with a crack you feel the minds of your brood torn from you and your own mind torn apart in an instant.
It is not in the Zerg's nature to sleep, so awaking is unique for you as you hear the sounds of birds above you and the lapping of water against a sandy shore. Your eyes open and your mind reaches out, you shift lowering your body readying your mind. Very few of your brood remains, much has been lost, your surroundings are far from the world the Queen of Blades had you protecting. Replaced by a strange one seemingly untouched by man or Zerg with clean tasting air. Something has happened.
Each Broodmother has access to the core of the Zerg, but each brood has specializations skills and talents? What was your Brood like?
