(As my friends and I explored this forest-like place, I think it felt oddly...familiar. As if this was a less technologically-advanced version of Fear Factory.) Archeogiana: "Do you guys feel a sense of familiarity coming from this island? Or is it just me?" Eye of Kingthulhu: "Yeah...this looks like Fear Factory, but less technologically-advanced." Necrohemoth: "Well you can't blame the Sculk-elemental Blacksight. Eye of Kingthulhu, just because you're the Creation-elemental Blacksight doesn't mean that you created this. And Archeogiana, I don't want to see any chaos from this point." Archeogiana: "Seriously? You expect ME, the Chaos-elemental Blacksight, to not cause chaos? It's literally MY thing, you know-" (Just then, Archeogiana doubles over in pain onto my back.) Archeogiana: "AAAAGH!! Terrormorph, something's wrong!" (Just by looking at her massive belly, I immediately knew what was wrong with Archeogiana.) Terrormorph: "Oh no, Archeogiana is going into labor! We need to find a safe place for her to give birth." Necrohemoth: "Quickly, Eye of Kingthulhu, use your telekinesis to scout for a suitable location." Eye of Kingthulhu: "On it." (After a few moments, Eye of Kingthulhu returns, leading the group to a nearby cave.) Eye of Kingthulhu: "This seems like a good place. It's secluded and has a natural water source." Terrormorph: "Great, let's get Archeogiana settled in and prepare for the birth." (As we get Archeogiana situated in the cave, we notice that the baby seems to be coming out a bit...unconventionally.) Terrormorph: "Uh...is it just me or is the baby coming out with feathers?" Archeogiana: "Don't worry, it's normal. My kind gives birth to feathered offspring." Necrohemoth: "Well, that's certainly interesting. I've never witnessed a Chaos-elemental Blacksight give birth before." Eye of Kingthulhu: "Let's focus on making sure everything goes smoothly." (With our combined efforts, Archeogiana successfully gives birth to a healthy, feathered baby.) Terrormorph: "Congratulations, Archeogiana! You're now a mother." Archeogiana: "Thank you all for your help. I couldn't have done it without you." (As we all admire the new addition to our group, I can't help but feel a warm sense of familiarity and belonging in this new, strange world we've found ourselves in. Then I notice a strange structure right by us - it was a strange pillar with four segments. The second I touched it, its segments rose and separated. Then I noticed the glowing white orb in the center, which turned into an orange eye. All of a sudden, the ground started shaking - causing Archeogiana's newborn to cry. But looking at the eye, I knew what this structure was called - the Coloss-Eye. And it had awoken the spirit of this island - which we referred to as "Proto-Fear Factory". I looked beneath me - and sure enough, Proto-Fear Factory was awake. And while I was confused, Proto-Fear Factory started talking to me!)

Proto-Fear Factory: "Welcome, travelers. I am <PRESIDIO_ANONYMIZED_PERSON>, the spirit of this island. You have awoken me with the Coloss-Eye. What brings you here?" Terrormorph: "We come in search of knowledge and adventure." Proto-Fear Factory: "I see. Well, you have stumbled upon a place of great power and mystery. I will guide you and provide you with the knowledge you seek, but beware - there are dangers and obstacles ahead." Necrohemoth: "We are not afraid. We are the Blacksights, and we're ready for whatever comes our way." Eye of Kingthulhu: "Yeah, and with our powers combined, we can overcome anything!" Archeogiana: "And don't forget, I have a new little addition to the team. She's going to see and experience everything too." Proto-Fear Factory: "Very well. Let us begin our journey together."
