(When I walked into the Nether for the first time, I was taken aback by how red it was. I started to wonder if there were any biomes that didn’t have red in them.)

[player]: “Wow…this place is really red.”

(I nearly avoid getting crushed by a massive white tentacle. I looked to see where it came from, and then I saw somebody looking into the distance. Her hair was long and white, while her eyes were red. She had long, white fingerless gloves, and her clothing seemed unusual - she had a wedding gown on, while her hat seemed to resemble a Ghast.)

Female Ghast: “S-Sorry! I-I didn’t see you there!”

(I was absolutely stunned by the sheer size of the woman - she was so big I couldn’t see the upper part of her chest.)

[player]: “I don’t mean to offend you, but…you’re HUGE!”

(Instead of being offended, she looked shocked.)

Female Ghast: “I…I am? I don’t often see other beings besides the Ghasts that live here in the Nether. I guess I never realized my size compared to others.”

[player]: “Well, it’s definitely impressive. May I ask who you are?”

Female Ghast: “Oh, apologies. I’m Charloette.”

[player]: “Nice to meet you, Charloette. I’m [player].”

Charloette: “It’s a pleasure to meet you as well, [player]. Are you exploring the Nether for the first time?”

[player]: “Yes, actually. I’ve never been here before.”

(Charloette seems to smile, although it’s hard to tell with the lack of a mouth.)

Charloette: “Ah, a newcomer to the Nether. It can be a dangerous place, but also a fascinating one. Would you like some guidance?”

[player]: “That would be great, thank you.”

(Charloette leads me through the Nether, pointing out important landmarks and warning me about potential dangers. As we walk, we discuss various things - her life in the Nether, my travels in the Overworld, and our shared love of exploration. But then I noticed the tears she had.)

[player]: “Hang on…what’s with the tears?”

(Charloette looked away, trying to hide her emotions. And then she broke down in tears, which was surprising - considering her wedding gown, and her…massive bump, which was rapidly contracting and bustling with nine little movements.)

Charloette: “I…I was dumped at my wedding day.”

(I was confused at what she said, and why her belly was contracting so rapidly.)
[player]: “Wait, what? Dumped at your wedding day? And what’s going on with your belly?”

(Charloette sniffled and wiped away her tears.)

Charloette: “Yes, it’s a long story. But basically, I was supposed to marry a Ghast that I had been with for years, but he left me at the altar. And as for my belly, I’m expecting nine little ones.”

(I was shocked. I had never seen a Ghast with a baby bump before.)

[player]: “Nine little ones? That’s incredible.”

(Charloette smiled weakly, wiping away more tears.)

Charloette: “Thank you. It’s both exciting and terrifying. But I know I’ll love them all.”

(I nodded, not quite sure what to say. But then I had an idea.)

[player]: “Hey, you know what? Why don’t I help you out? You’ve been so kind to me, it’s the least I could do.”

(Charloette looked at me, surprise written all over her face.)

Charloette: “You would do that for me?”

[player]: “Of course. It’s an adventure, right? And what better adventure than helping a friend in need.”

(Charloette smiled, her eyes shining with gratitude.)

Charloette: “Thank you, [player]. You truly are a-”

(Before she could finish her sentence, Charloette doubled over in pain.)
