Of Dark Suggestions

While the dark cloud was left to her thoughts, the divine light in human form witnessed Sefira completing her reunification of all the lesser Leviathan monsters into the original primordial gestalt with feminine characteristics. Seeing that things were well under control with the other, more frenzied gestalt, the Darkness held back from rushing to God's aid. Despite that, she whispered in the mind of the Lesser Darkness.

My dear, you need neither attack their offspring's cerebra with such observable cruelty nor traumatize the parents themselves with stillbirth after stillbirth.

Mother, since when did you care about these abominations?

I don't, but I do suggest an alternative.

Very well.

Take advantage of your Uncle's serial neglect of countless babies throughout his Creation!

I heard that, Sis!

Shut up, Brother. Anyways, my dear, he has remained idle while mortal death took those babies from their mothers.

Which I alone will rectify!

That's beside the point. A number of humans have forgiven him in their lifetimes for supposedly taking those babies away, as part of personal deals to obtain divine forgiveness for their own shortcomings. Underlying the demise of a number of these is their unfortunate circumstance of having been part of higher multiple pregnancies, then of having belonged to sextuplets or higher multiple births.

Of course! Natural forces were at work to increase greatly their likelihood of being stillborn.

My point is that you could, how shall I put it, bless the reconstructed parent with a higher multiple pregnancy that leads to a sextuplet or a higher multiple birth. This will be like humans farming domesticated birds, poultry, for their eggs.

Well put, but there's no guarantee that the cerebra of the embryos will be the primary organs to be affected negatively!

They don't need to be. Once the parents are on the verge of experiencing a miscarriage, they will accept your follow-up attacks on the offspring's cerebra as part of a necessary abortion process. You will then have your desired stillborn gestalts to possess, disperse, and diminish, one after another.

Your suggestion is hereby accepted.

The Lesser Darkness then thanked her mother, the Darkness, for this suggestion. Meanwhile, God felt both helpless and compelled: helpless to spoil his divine companion's suggestion, and compelled not to apply the double standard of saving the future gestalts from becoming stillborn.
