The sequel laid uncomfortably in Kiithid's digestive tract. Of course, it was not uncomfortable for the sequel itself but rather to Kiithid; after all, most sequels leave a bad taste in your mouth and can cause a severe constipation of cranial nerves. However, in this case the constipation was obviously somewhere else, as sequels - however good - are not meant to be quite that literally consumed. It was a stupid move on Kiithid's part to ever eat a sequel in the first place, but being stuck with consequences of rash decisions was relatively familiar to Kiithid.
Thus, Kiithid tried to bravely digest the sequel for four days and nights until finally succumbing to the embrace of death as the sequel burst Kiithid's entrails and caused severe internal bleeding and sepsis to boot. It was neither fast or painless, not to speak of clean. Descriptions of Kiithid's dying throes were to be the ultimate testimony for the sequels' corrupting power; even after close to 32.5 million years of hibernation, it managed to kill a full grown Member of the Species in a record time, much to the chagrin of the few survivors of his Species, assuming they were able to have more complex feelings than fear of violence, hunger, annoyance at having to clean the mess, and other basic instincts... and to the great joy of the Members of Other Species, who despite their diminutive size compared to the Members of the Species were in general a lot more pleasant companions for the dinner table... seeing how the likelyhood of being the dinner was significantly lower with them than it was with Members of the Species.
Thus the Members of the Other Species, upon finding Kiithid's carcass and determining the cause of death, brought home Kiithid's head on a ten foot barge pole (where they needed a barge pole in the wastes of Kharak is anyone's guess) and the Sequel, which they called something else in their own language but with a Capital Letter, which was the important part, for they placed the Sequel onto the temple of their Death God more commonly known as Carl, meaning it as a relic of great death-inducing powers. However, Carl was more used to people sacrificing their lunches for him - 32.5 million years can build quite a routine for anyone - and subsequently snatched the Sequel without looking at it, and promptly ate it in front of horrified Members of the Other Species...
