(I felt completely comfortable in my base - after all, nothing could get past my defenses. 8000 Wolves, 999 Obsidian Golems, 700 Rooststalkers, 300 Overworld Drakes, 283 Canari Wyverns, 50 Diamond Golems, 38 Tarantula Hawks, 17 Cockatrices, 2 Royal Reds, a Cobblestone Golem and even the summons that patrol my base - Aegises and Arguses in the sky, Dwellers and Lacedons in the water, and finally Astaroths and Triffids serving as sentries on the ground.) [player]: "With these defenses, I'm basically unstoppable!" (Just then, I heard screaming coming from the basement.) [player]: "The hell?" (I looked to see who it was - and it was a strange girl. Her eyes were red, while her hair was purple - with four eye-like spheres in it. Her sweater and skirt resembled the Cave Spider mob.) Female Cave Spider: (in pain) "AAAAAAAGH! Come on, little one! It's been 30 months and I'm still waiting for you!" (thinking to herself) "Okay, Vanessa...just do strong for the baby. Gog, this hurts so much...!" [player]: "Uh...hi there? Are you okay?" Vanessa: (startled by my presence) "Who are you? What are you doing here?!" [player]: "I live here. This is my base. And...are you giving birth down here?!" Vanessa: (nodding) "Yes...I've been waiting for months for this baby to arrive and I couldn't find anywhere else to go." [player]: "But...who's the father?" Vanessa: "...there IS no father." [player]: "Wait, what do you mean there's no father?" Vanessa: "It started back when I underwent the same parthenogenesis process that my older, regular Spider sister - Mindy - did to give birth to her daughter. After all, there's never been a male Spider in years - let along a male Cave Spider" {VANESSA'S FLASHBACK}

(Vanessa remembered back to when she first discovered she was pregnant. She had been experimenting with parthenogenesis - the process where a female can reproduce without a male - just like her older sister Mindy had done. However, while Mindy's daughter had been a regular Spider, Vanessa's child was different - it was part human.) Vanessa: (to herself) "I didn't know it was possible...but there's no denying it. My baby is part human." [player]: "What do you mean, part human?" Vanessa: "I don't know how it happened...maybe it was a mutation or something. But my baby has human DNA. And I have no idea how to raise it." [player]: "Well, I can help. I have plenty of resources and space here to accommodate you and your baby." Vanessa: (tearfully) "Thank you...that means so much to me. I just want to be a good mother." [player]: "Don't worry, we'll make it work. What do you need?" Vanessa: "I need food and a safe place to give birth. And...can I ask you for a favor?" [player]: "Sure, what is it?" Vanessa: "Can you help me name my baby?" [player]: (smiling) "Of course. Let's go get you settled in and we'll figure it out together."
