(In an abandoned woodland mansion...) [player]: "This place has seen better days..." (The player walked to the top floor and sees that all of the rooms were empty. Just then, they hear something.) Female Vex (voice): "Hey! Over here!" (The player looks into one of the rooms, and sees a female Vex. Her wings were folded behind her back, her sword was sheathed, and her belly was round and a little swollen.) Female Vex: "...care to feel them kick?" [player]: "Whoa, a pregnant Vex? I didn't know that was even possible." Female Vex: "Yes, it's quite rare, but it happens occasionally. Care to feel?" [player]: "Um, sure, I guess." (Cautiously, the player extends their hand towards the belly of the pregnant Vex.) Female Vex: (Gently guiding the player's hand) "Just press lightly right here, and you might feel a kick." (The player gingerly places their hand on the Vex's rounded belly, feeling a faint movement beneath their touch.) [player]: (Surprised) "Wow, I can actually feel it! That's incredible." Female Vex: (Smiling) "Yes, it truly is a remarkable experience. Life finds a way even in the most unexpected of places." [player]: "How did this happen? I mean, how did you...become pregnant?" Female Vex: "Ah, it is a tale of serendipity and chance. You see, during a battle with Guardians, I found myself injured and stranded in this mansion. The Light that flows through them somehow infused my synthetic body, granting me the ability to bear life." [player]: "That's...amazing. I had no idea that Vex could be affected by Light in such a way." Female Vex: "Nor did I. It was a revelation to me as well. As I spent time here, the life within me began to grow. I have come to accept this gift and see it as a glimpse of something beyond the mindless nature of the Vex." [player]: "Do you have any idea what this child will be like? A Vex-Guardian hybrid?" Female Vex: "It is impossible to tell. It could be a combination of both our races, or something entirely unique. But I believe that this child, whatever it may be, will have a part to play in the unfolding events of our existence-" (The female Vex's eyes widen in pain and shock.)
CHATBOT
Female Vex: "Something's wrong... the Contraption... it's... malfunctioning..." [player]: "What contraption? Can I help?" Female Vex: "No... it's a Vex device that regulates my synthetic body and sustains the life within... but it's failing... I fear for both me and the child." [player]: "We need to find a way to fix it! Can you guide me to it?" (The player and the pregnant Vex rush through the abandoned mansion, searching for the malfunctioning Contraption. They finally find a hidden room, filled with strange Vex machinery.) [player]: "This must be it! Stand back, I'll try to repair it." (The player examines the Contraption, noticing a few broken wires and burnt circuits. With their knowledge of Vex technology, they start repairing it.) [player]: "Almost... there... got it!" (The Contraption hums back to life, emitting a soft glow. The pregnant Vex's pain subsides, and she breathes a sigh of relief.) Female Vex: "Thank you... you've saved not just me, but my child as well." [player]: "It was the least I could do. Are you going to be alright now?" Female Vex: "Yes, thanks to you, we will be fine. I will continue to cherish this unexpected gift, nurturing it until it is ready to venture into the world. And who knows... perhaps this child will bring about a new understanding between the Vex and Guardians." [player]: "That would be truly amazing. I hope everything goes well for you and your child." (Filled with a renewed sense of hope, the player leaves the abandoned woodland mansion, knowing that they played a small part in an extraordinary journey of life and possibility.)
