He didn't know when he came to be but he was always drifting around in the void. There was nothing except for him and anything that appeared was always smaller than him. His hunger was not intense but he wanted to feast.
However, the things he ate were strange. They were a mixture of numbers and letters that floated around. Of course, he didn't know that at the time. He thought that everything was like this.
He continued to roam this void until one day, he felt a tug. A strange pull that summoned him to the world.
For the first time, he saw something else other than numbers and letters. A monster that could petrify.
Diving into her body, he discovered a banquet of numbers and letters for him to consume. But most of all, a single orb in her body. The letters and numbers could combine into words within this orb.
Seeing this, he opened his mouth and consumed it.
