(I decided to explore the caverns beneath my base. Then, I noticed something - it was iron.)

[player]: “Score!”

(I mined away at it, but was hit by a rock-like spear just before I could mine the last piece.)

Female Geonach: “Leave my ore alone!”

(I noticed something about the strange woman - her armor looked like it was made entirely out of stone. She had little pieces of stone orbiting around her, and she had two different weapons on her - she had a stony shield in her right hand, and a rock-like spear in her left.)

[player]: “Whoa! H-Hey! I’m just trying to make some armor!”

Female Geonach: “I don’t care. That iron is mine. And you humans are always taking things that don’t belong to you. I won’t let it happen again.”

[player]: “Okay, okay. I understand. Is there any way we could come to a compromise? Maybe I could trade for some of your resources?”

Female Geonach: “You think you can just trade with a Geonach like me? No wonder the other Geonachs think humans like you are stupid.”

[player]: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to offend you. I just want to find a way to coexist peacefully…”

Female Geonach: “Coexist? Ha! Humans are destroyers. You come into our caves, strip them of their resources, and then leave us to fend for ourselves. I won’t let that happen anymore.”

[player]: “I understand your anger, but not all humans are the same. There are some of us who want to work with nature, not against it. Maybe we could find a way to work together, rather than fighting each other.”

Female Geonach: “Hmph. I’ve heard that before- OW! Ow, ow, ow!”

(The female Geonach winced and clutched her belly, seemingly in pain. I didn’t know what was wrong with her, but two Geonachs that were around her age rushed to her.)

Female Keppel Geonach: “Sis, is everything alright?”

Female Golden Geonach: “We’re worried about you, sis!”

(The female Geonach continued to clutch her belly, and she started to scream. She looked back at her sisters, and I could see worry in her eyes.)
