メイド少女とオオムカデ

【ヤツデとムカデ】
■オオムカデの抱卵と托卵■
オオムカデの雌は雄との交尾後、受精卵を腹部に蓄えて産卵に適した環境が整うまで保持し、
子達の餌となる"苗床"が確保出来ると、産卵管を犠牲者の胎内に挿入し腹腔に卵を産み付ける。

一度に産卵する卵は約８０個。

通常の産卵では雌は１ヶ月程抱卵するが、托卵の場合苗床の胎内で卵は直ぐに孵化し内臓を食い破りながら成長する。
餌は新鮮であれば有るほど良い。

■「幻想生物図鑑　死地」に収録していた絵です。彼女の２回忌も近いので、きちんと成仏させるためにも…。合掌。

    オオムカデ - 大百足 = Oomukade (lit. great/giant centipede)

    From what I understand, this is a type of fictional creature from Japanese folklore:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lord_Bag_of_Rice
    https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/大百足

    In olden times, when Fujiwara no Hidesato (who lived in the first half of the tenth century) crossed the bridge, a big serpent lay across it. The hero, however, was not at all afraid, and calmly stepped over the monster which at once disappeared into the water and returned in the shape of a beautiful woman. Two thousand years, she said, she had lived under this bridge, but never had she seen such a brave man as he. For this reason she requested him to destroy her enemy, a giant centipede, which had killed her sons and grandsons. Hidesato promised her to do so and, armed with a bow and arrows, awaited the centipede on the bridge.
