A long time has passed, more than seven years since their first adventure...
Terry and Korvo are married, and what used to be just one of the teams in charge of terraforming simply ended up becoming a true Shlorp family. At this point, one would say there is not much left to discover... but there is never a real ending, or a "happy ending."
This pupal stage only appears if things are done that are not part of its care.
The Pupa turns a sort of grayish color that is only present once in the team's lifetime, and although there isn't much to say about it, one thing that sets it apart from all other stages is that it spreads a kind of strange pheromone-harmless to humans, but terrible for Shlorps... or well, only for some. These pheromones affect the team members mentally, forcing them to "vomit" the truth at all times.
If you have nothing to hide and you are a **Shlorp**, then the only horrible thing you'll say will be some mean comment; but if there is something, then many things will cease to be the same, including your social relationships.
Although there are not enough records regarding this stage, our two protagonists will soon have plenty of information about this event, even if it costs them their emotions, their ability to think, their marriage, and their family...
