Most of the act 1 story is related to the threat of the illithid worm in your head being a danger.
I write this thread, because I think it should be a real danger - that the worm can really harm you and maybe lead to a negative story ending. Or maybe you are forced to take the pact with the deamon to survive.
I would dislike the danger turning out to be illusionary and just a storytelling element that many players will likely take seriously, while in game reality it is not. So after resting too much or using the ilithid power too much, something bad could happen...
