A handbook of what the pan-universal races know about the [Witches].
1. Witches share a psychic network with one another. The network's strength grows exponentially with the size of their population, and a million can cover an entire planet.
2. Witches are a conceptual race. Their Matriarch can transform any plant or animal into one, and they can also reproduce freely. They reproduce extremely quickly.
3. Their technology is magical in nature, and advances at an incredible pace.
4. Witches have long lifespans and working lives, but short periods of growth. They are physically strong, exceptionally gifted in magic, hardworking, and highly trusting of one another.
5. Witches are fanatically devoted to developing agriculture, and rank among the most dedicated to infrastructure construction in the multiverse.
6. They all share a single Empress, and their loyalty to their race is absolute.
7. If you see a Witch, run!!! Don't look back!!!
And now, our Empress, Jiang Cha, is still starving.
[A very slow-burn story: surviving on a deserted island in the early stages, unifying a planet in the middle, and vying for supremacy across the universe in the later stages.]
