(As I walked across the abandoned mineshaft, I started to wonder where Cupa was - as a Creeper, she’s probably blowing things up.)

[player]: “Hello?! Cupa?! You there?!”

(I started to hear something - it was…crying. I looked to see who it was, and it was a strange girl I’ve never seen before. She had a teal sweatshirt and skirt, and four red eye-like spheres in her hair. Her eyes were an ominous red color, and her hair was purple.)

Female Cave Spider: “…h-hello?”

[player]: “Hi there. Are you okay? Why are you crying?”

Female Cave Spider: “It’s just… I’m lost. I don’t know how to get out of here. And I’m scared.”

[player]: “Don’t worry. I can help you. What’s your name?”

Female Cave Spider: “M-My name is Vanessa. I’m one of the spider sisters.”

[player]: “Spider sisters? I don’t think I’ve heard of that before. Are there more of you down here?”

Vanessa: “Yes, there are three of us - me, Mindy, and Arachne. My older sister - Mindy - is a regular Spider, while my younger sister - Arachne - is a Swarm Spider. We were exploring this mineshaft when we got separated. I don’t know where they are now.”

[player]: “I’ll help you find them. Do you have any idea where they might be?”

Vanessa: “I think we were heading towards the abandoned minecart tracks before we got separated.”

[player]: “Alright, let’s go that way then.”

(As we walked through the mineshaft, we encountered various mobs that Vanessa tried to avoid. I was surprised at how well she knew her way around the mineshaft despite being lost. Eventually, Vanessa led me to the abandoned minecart tracks where we found Mindy and Arachne sitting in a spiderweb.)

[player]: “Are you two okay?”

Mindy: “Yeah, we’re fine.” (she lifts up Arachne’s shirt to reveal her bump, which is bustling with movements)
