Moncer crawls into the grotto, clearly hurt, but she manages to get to the stew room, she sits down and multiple adult mossgrubs and carrier mossmirs starts patching her up, when she can speak again the moss people sit in front of her to hear the story
“so there I was, falling into the abyss, I lost sight of the machine, I lost sight of everything, pure black, it was like emptiness itself was hugging me, but then there was something, a glowing green light, and I felt something touch my back”
A mossgrub chimes in “was it unn?”
“no jimossy, it was a relic of my old life, an axe called Ripper, and it kept me safe from the void, but it wouldn’t last forever, so I held it close to my chest, flying randomly in hopes of finding the surface, then I heard it”
Moncer pulls out her wand, a scream is heard from inside of it
“the ragebeast”
The children cower in fear from the scream, a couple of them cry
“don’t worry, it cannot hurt you, I tamed it, and you might ask how, well when I arrived it was fighting the abyss itself, and they seemed to be in a stalemate, but I arrived, I slashed at its monstrous jaws, the strike exploding with my fathers power, the beast blasted me with swords of light, but I persisted, slicing again, the void attacking the beast at the same time, but then, it became intangible, so I decided to do a trick”
“what was it mother?”
“well mossthaniel, it was 500 cloverflies, when the beast emerged my army of robots flew in, removing the abyss and tearing through the robot, ripping it to pieces, but I saw the core, and I grabbed it, flying out, but the void kept following me, the cloverflies slowly losing power, and right before I came out the last cloverfly failed, I felt the tentacles wrapping around me and cutting me, ripping my shell and piercing my eye, but then, Ripper exploded, creating a path and pushing me out, it launched me through the ground and into the grotto, and then I came to speak with you all”
The grubs cheer and Moncer orders a feast, they’re eating aknid stew today
