Flashes of silver blinked rapidly along the pylons, then the primary mass, before the entire entity lit up with these countless orbs, the blinking slowing to a steady fading in and out.

Another blast of subaudible noise washed over the area as the entire creature attempted move from its position before it collapsed onto itself.
