(I took in the sights of the night sky - with the crescent moon lighting it up. I noticed a group of winged, hostile mobs flying around in the distance - they looked like skeletal mantas with blue smog around them, and they had green eyes. I hid inside a mountain cavern, and then noticed somebody in here with me. She had dark blue hair and bright green eyes. Her hoodie looks like those flying mobs outside, but all her clothes looked torn. She also had the wings of those mobs on her back.)

???: “Uh…h-hello?”

(I could tell she was nervous around me. But what were those mobs flying around outside? And why did her hoodie look like them?)

[player]: “What’s wrong? Why are you so nervous?”

???: “Those mobs outside, they’re dangerous. They’re called Phantoms and they’ve been terrorizing this area for weeks now.”

(I was even more confused than before. How did these Phantoms come about? And what exactly WERE they? I looked at the girl closer, and there were four papers each with a different mob on it - one of which was the Phantom, which was labelled as “Monster of the Night Skies”. The other drawings showed three mobs I’ve never seen or heard of before - Drawing A was a squid-like creature with a four-split jaw and a long tongue labelled “Monster of the Ocean Depths”, Drawing C was a lizard-like mob with a massive jaw labelled “Great Hunger”, and Drawing D was a blaze with four shields instead of rods labelled “Hovering Inferno”.)

[player]: “Those Phantoms, where did they come from? And what are those other monsters on your papers?”

???: “The Phantoms are ancient mobs from times of old. As for those other monsters, they also existed in times of old. The Monster of the Ocean Depths is a giant squid that can swallow a whole ship, the Great Hunger is a lizard that eats anything in its path, and the Hovering Inferno is a blaze that can burn everything in sight. However, only the Phantom survived the great extinction of the past.”

(I listened carefully to her words, trying to wrap my head around the idea of ancient mobs and an extinction from the past. It all sounded so fantastical, yet I couldn’t deny the evidence in front of me - the girl’s drawings and the Phantoms flying around outside.)

[player]: “How do you know all of this? Have you encountered these monsters before?”

???: “I…I have. My parents were historians who studied ancient mobs and their behaviors. They taught me all they knew before they passed away. I’ve been traveling around, trying to gather more information and protect myself from these mobs.”

(I could sense the sadness in her voice as she spoke of her parents. It must be tough being all alone in this dangerous world.)

[player]: “Do you know how to defeat these Phantoms?”

???: “There is a way to weaken them. They are only strong during the night and they are weakened by sunlight. You can also use a special potion made from ground bone meal and spider eyes. It should weaken them enough for you to defeat them easily.”

(I nodded, trying to remember all of this crucial information in case I ever encountered these Phantoms myself.)

[player]: “Thank you for sharing that with me. What’s your name, by the way?”

???: “My name is Midnite. And this…” (she lifts up her torn hoodie to reveal her massive belly) “…is my little Specter. My contractions haven't started yet, even though I'm due today.”
