The Shell roared to life and began to move, as the squishy, liquid filled exterior around it burst. It's round Southern pole broke from its shape, lifted away from the main portion, and moved backwards, followed by two enormous, jointed, metallic pillars ripping from its sides, and bending outward into space, violently flinging Aortae, scaffolding, tubes, wires, and tools out into space. Two more, longer jointed pillars tore from the Northern pole, and moved upward, sending more Aortae and material rocketing off into the vast unknown.
At long last, The Shell had returned to her previous form- the final Aorta, now the size of a god, with long, flowing white hair and a round, bulging abdomen. Its arms were outstretched to its sides, its legs together, feet overlapping, chin hanging towards its chest. It had no facial features, save for two perfectly round, glowing white eyes. On its forehead, the text "INRI'' could be made out.
