and she's guarding them with her life.

Without her to protect them,

they would be eaten by predators, or become diseased.

She caresses them with her tentacles,

ensuring that algae don't grow on them, and that fish don't eat them.

so they're well-supplied with oxygen.

and during all this time, she doesn't eat a thing.

And now, as they are hatching, she is dying.

One night, as the baby octopus emerge,

This will be her final act.
