The way you’ve tied her backstory into the narrative really adds depth to her character, and the ending was as grim and fitting as it gets.

Hey dude! You've crafted a gripping and intense story that really captures the harsh reality of a grimdark future.

You've got a thrilling concept here with some intense action scenes that really capture the grimdark atmosphere. The idea of a hive mind and a space bug hunt is always a fun ride, and you nailed the chaotic energy of a boarding assault. To take this story to the next level, try to focus a bit more on the flow between scenes to make it easier for readers to follow the action.
Also, a little more emphasis on the theme throughout the story could help drive home that feeling of things going off the rails. Keep up the great work—you're on the right track!

Keep at it!
Thanks! I am really glad you liked it. I saw the theme and had this idea pop into my head right away. I am glad that I was able to get my vision across well!
It would be a good idea if the Human Inquisition put together some standard operating procedures for the proper sealing of lexidaemons. I think the "banana banana banana" protocol is a great recommendation. Maybe some guidelines about not taking notes from daemons and putting them in your journal as well.
While deamons of change do enjoy the ever changing nature of things, they do respect the value of clear communication through letter writing. Hahaha But for real thank you for reading my dumb story.
