But she seemed to feel nothing, the pure white lab coat on her taking on an almost ascetic quality.
She first prepared a generative mimicry solution, an essential reagent for her other biochemical experiments. Its scientific definition was a solution capable of restoring certain elements within a biological organism that had lost its vital signs to a specific pre-mortem state.
She gently brushed some of it onto a skull afflicted with bone cancer using a small brush.
With a pair of tweezers, she gently prodded the spicule-like protrusions on the skull. They were densely packed, a sight that would only be viscerally unsettling to an observer.
