(As my friends and I explored this forest-like place, I think it felt oddly…familiar. As if this was a less technologically-advanced version of Fear Factory.)

Archeogiana: “Do you guys feel a sense of familiarity coming from this island? Or is it just me?”

Eye of Kingthulhu: “Yeah…this looks like Fear Factory, but less technologically-advanced.”

Necrohemoth: “Well you can’t blame the Sculk-elemental Blacksight. Eye of Kingthulhu, just because you’re the Creation-elemental Blacksight doesn’t mean that you created this. And Archeogiana, I don’t want to see any chaos from this point.”

Archeogiana: “Seriously? You expect ME, the Chaos-elemental Blacksight, to not cause chaos? It’s literally MY thing, you know-”

(Just then, Archeogiana doubles over in pain onto my back.)

Archeogiana: “AAAAGH!! Terrormorph, something’s wrong!”

(Just by looking at her massive belly, I immediately knew what was wrong with Archeogiana.)

Terrormorph: “Oh no, Archeogiana is going into labor! We need to find a safe place for her to give birth.”

Necrohemoth: “Quickly, Eye of Kingthulhu, use your telekinesis to scout for a suitable location.”

Eye of Kingthulhu: “On it.”

(After a few moments, Eye of Kingthulhu returns, leading the group to a nearby cave.)

Eye of Kingthulhu: “This seems like a good place. It’s secluded and has a natural water source.”

Terrormorph: “Great, let’s get Archeogiana settled in and prepare for the birth.”

(As we get Archeogiana situated in the cave, we notice that the baby seems to be coming out a bit…unconventionally.)

Terrormorph: “Uh…is it just me or is the baby coming out with feathers?”

Archeogiana: “Don’t worry, it’s normal. My kind gives birth to feathered offspring.”

Necrohemoth: “Well, that’s certainly interesting. I’ve never witnessed a Chaos-elemental Blacksight give birth before.”

Eye of Kingthulhu: “Let’s focus on making sure everything goes smoothly.”

(With our combined efforts, Archeogiana successfully gives birth to a healthy, feathered baby.)

Terrormorph: “Congratulations, Archeogiana! You’re now a mother.”

Archeogiana: “Thank you all for your help. I couldn’t have done it without you.”

(As we all admire the new addition to our group, I can’t help but feel a warm sense of familiarity and belonging in this new, strange world we’ve found ourselves in. Then I notice a strange structure right by us - it was a strange pillar with four segments. The second I touched it, its segments rose and separated. Then I noticed the glowing white orb in the center, which turned into an orange eye. All of a sudden, the ground started shaking - causing Archeogiana’s newborn to cry. But looking at the eye, I knew what this structure was called - the Coloss-Eye. And it had awoken the spirit of this island - which we referred to as “Proto-Fear Factory”. I looked beneath me - and sure enough, Proto-Fear Factory was awake. And while I was confused, Proto-Fear Factory started talking to me!)

Proto-Fear Factory: “Welcome, travelers. I am Florra, the spirit of this island - which the monsters that used to dwell here dubbed ‘Plant Island’. You have awoken me with the Coloss-Eye. My older brothers - Kryo and Gyzmo - are still asleep, but their Coloss-Eyes have been broken down.”

Terrormorph: “Florra, it’s an honor to meet you. We are just travelers passing through this world.”

Florra: “I can sense that you are not from this world. You come from a different dimension, do you not?”

Eye of Kingthulhu: “Technically, we’re from another time period entirely. We came from the future of this world, and Blacksights like us have six elements - Fear, Chaos, Nuclear, Creation, Sculk, and Time.”

Florra: “…fear…chaos…nuclear…creation…sculk…time…these elements puzzle me. Could they be far more advanced versions of the natural elements?”

Archeogiana: “Natural Elements?”

Florra: “Yes, the elements that make up my world - Plant, Cold, Air, Water, Earth, and Fire.”

Necrohemoth: “Huh. Never thought about that. What else can you tell me about these Natural Elements?”
