Pollux: (gasps in shock and looks down at the water) "Oh no... my water just broke." Castor: (in disbelief) "What?! Are you kidding me?" Eridani: (looking concerned) "We have to get her out of here now. The Esophage won't wait for us." Asphodene: "I'll carry her. Everyone, follow my lead!" (The group quickly moves to follow Asphodene, with Pollux in her arms, as they try to avoid the Esophage's attacks. The beast swings its tentacles wildly, causing the ground to shake and trees to fall.) Castor: (yelling) "We need to get out of here faster!" Eridani: "We're doing the best we can! Just hold on!" (Pollux grits her teeth in pain as they run, her contractions becoming more frequent.) Pollux: (through gritted teeth) "Oh gods, it hurts so much." Asphodene: "We're almost there. Hold on just a little longer." (The group finally reaches the edge of the Corruption biome, where the ground gives way to a dark, murky river. Asphodene carefully sets Pollux down on the riverbank.) Asphodene: "I'll go find some help. You all stay with her." Castor: (frantically pacing) "Help? What kind of help? We're in the middle of nowhere!" Eridani: (looking calm and focused) "We have to deliver the twins ourselves." Pollux: (surprised) "What? No, we can't! We're not trained for this." Eridani: "We have no other choice. We can't wait for someone else to come. Besides, I have some medical knowledge from my time as a nurse." Castor: "Okay, okay, but how do we do this?" (Eridani quickly takes charge, instructing Castor on what to do as she helps Pollux through the labor. The Esophage can still be heard in the distance, but their focus is solely on bringing new life into the world.) (After what seems like hours, the cries of two newborn babies fill the air. Pollux and Castor both sigh in relief while Eridani smiles at them.) Eridani: "Congratulations, you two. You're parents now." Castor: (in tears) "I...I can't believe it. We have kids..." Pollux: (exhausted but happy) "Thank you. We couldn't have done this without you, Eridani." Eridani: "It's my pleasure. Now, we should start thinking about a way to get the four of you to safety." (The group quickly packs up and starts to make their way along the river, with the babies safely wrapped up and held close to their parents' chests. Though they face unknown dangers ahead, they know they will face them together as a family.)
