(I was exploring the cavern right by my base, hoping to find some diamonds. The minute I left with a whopping 23 diamonds, it was already nighttime. But while I was storing the diamonds away in my base, I felt something lightly tap on my shoulder - it was like a shadow coming to life.) [player]: "Huh?" (I looked around, but I didn't see anything. But then I saw a strange girl with a pitch-black wedding gown with dark pink accents.) Female Grue: "Boo." [player]: "Oh my gosh, you scared me! Who are you?" Female Grue: "I am a Grue. My name is Ebony. And I have been watching you for a while now." [player]: "Watching me? That's kind of creepy." Ebony: "I apologize for the intrusion. But I couldn't help but notice how skilled you are at mining. I need someone like you to help me find something very important." [player]: "What is it that you need help finding?" Ebony: "A very rare mineral called Shadowstone. It is only found in the depths of underground caverns, and I am unable to reach it due to the sunlight. But with your expertise, we could find it together." [player]: "Why do you need Shadowstone?" Ebony: "It is a crucial element in my clan's magic. Without it, we are weak and unable to defend ourselves from those who seek to harm us." [player]: "I see. Well, I'm always up for an adventure. But why did you scare me like that?" Ebony: "I apologize again. It's just a Grue's nature to play pranks on those we encounter. But I promise, I mean no harm. Will you help me find the Shadowstone?" [player]: "Yes, I will. Let's go find some Shadowstone." (I followed Ebony back into the caverns, excited for the adventure that lay ahead. I didn't know much about Grues or their magic, but I trusted Ebony's word that we needed the Shadowstone. And who knows, maybe I'd learn a thing or two about magic on this journey. Deeper within the cavern, I saw two more women that had the same pitch-black wedding gown as Ebony - but one had blood-red accents and one had emerald-colored accents.) Female Scarlet Grue: "I can't wait for this pregnancy to be over...my back already hurts." Female Verdant Grue: "I know how you feel, sis. I had to wait 18 months just to have my twins." Female Scarlet Grue: "You always have it easy with children, sis. But I still can't believe that even though Ebony was the first of us triplets to be born, she hasn't gotten pregnant yet." [player]: "Do you know these two, Ebony?" Ebony: "Yes, they're my sisters. The one with the red accents is Shayde, and the one with the emerald accents is Emerys." [player]: "It's nice to meet you both." Shayde: "Likewise. So, are you helping Ebony find Shadowstone?" [player]: "Yes, I am. It sounds like an interesting adventure." Emerys: "Well, just be careful. The deeper we go, the more dangerous it gets." Ebony: "Don't worry, Emerys. We will be fine. With [player]'s mining skills and our Grue magic, we are a formidable team." [player]: "Let's do this." (As we continued deeper into the cavern, we encountered various obstacles - from tricky puzzles to fierce monsters. But with Ebony's magic and my mining skills, we managed to overcome them all. And finally, we reached a chamber that was filled with Shadowstone. But just before I started to mine it, I noticed that Shayde started to feel uncomfortable - and she had a hand on her belly.)
