"Next up from the Zolan Expanse, we have the terrifying, the terrible, the terrific… Thiss!"
The next alien in the lineup moved forward. This alien was bipedal, like a human, but stood at least a few feet higher than your average six-foot-tall guy. Similarly to the Null Space Invader I had first fought alongside Lara, its arms were long and misshapen, with the knuckles of its three-fingered hands almost dragging across the floor. None of that was what terrified me the most about this so-called Thiss. Wires jutted out of the creature at haphazard angles, looping their way back through its flesh. As it stepped back into line, turning to reveal an eyeless face, I couldn't help but be reminded of creatures like the Cybermen or the Borg.
"Hailing all the way from the inner ring, we have Xyalla, while they may be fragile, their psychic prowess can blow anyone away!"
