Summary: An adventurer named Lyra wakes up from unconsciousness on a mind flayer dimension-crossing ship infected with a parasitic tadpole that threatens to transform her into a mind flayer. Alongside several others who have met the same fate, they are forced to go on a quest to find a remedy to prevent ceremorphosis. However, Lyra found herself without her memories and resisting unwanted urges/thoughts, unlike her traveling companions. Missing memories and a lot of questions, with experiences in pain and pleasure.
However, as this story goes on...things might get interesting.

Chapter 2 Summary:
Lyra awakens aboard a living nautiloid after being abducted by a mind flayer and implanted with a parasite. Disoriented, amnesiac, and plagued by violent intrusive thoughts, she escapes her pod into a burning, organic ship. She scavenges supplies, interacts with strange biomechanical devices, and resists urges to harm others. She frees an intellect devourer named Us, forming an uneasy alliance, and later encounters a githyanki warrior who reveals the parasite will transform them into mind flayers. Together, they fight through imps and corrupted thralls while navigating the ship.
Lyra accidentally triggers a device that transforms a captive into a mind flayer, deeply shaking her, but redeems herself by rescuing a cleric named Shadowheart. Despite tension between allies, the group pushes toward the helm as the ship is attacked by dragons and githyanki riders. Amid chaos and battle, Lyra connects the transponder, but the ship is critically damaged. As it crashes, she is thrown violently through the helm and loses consciousness, her fate uncertain.
