Wazup y'all!

Welcome back!

Please review.

(Mika's perspective)

I dashed through the forestry on Nymeria. She was very fast, much faster than any normal wolf.

Tek creatures actually don't have genders because… well, they're machines. But Nymeria seems kind of feminine to me so I will refer to her as she.

We ran along with all of our other creatures toward the coordinates Care gave us for a new base location.

We dashed over a small hill and through a clearing to find a waterfront wooden base with two cliff sides in the terrain on either side facing the ocean.

"I now present!" Care started dramatically from above on his Argy, "Northern Peaks!"

I laughed and called him down.

"I've already started building a base." he said as he flew down, "I was just getting a birds-eye view."

I looked to a small stone bunker.

"Ok…" I responded hesitantly looking at the bland structure before us.

"I can tell Omni had designed the cabin," I said.

"No, actually that was me." Care corrected.

"Then... " I started.

"This is temporary, for you guys to get an idea of what it will look like." He explained.

"Don't be offended... but I am changing all of it."

"Fine with me."

The creatures had just made it to our location, dragging the unconscious Tek Rex.

I had the monkeys destroy the bunker, they got a little creative in doing so by jumping through the structure like living cannonballs.

Once there were stones sprawled out everywhere and all that was left of Care's bunker was a bunch of dumb apes sniffing some rocks, I moved them aside and started my construction.

I placed a smithy and created a stone foundation with wooden walls on top of it, around the fences I weaved in some vines to make it look a little nicer. It was a three-story house, the top floor was fairly small with a single glass window at the top in the center. The second level had two large windows on the sides and the sides of the front, four in total. The back had the entire second floor's walls as one giant window giving the perfect view of the ocean.

After that, with the help of Thug and Bria, me and Care made a battlement so big, it actually went around both peeks.

"Ok, you're protected for now. Care come with me, we need to go get more metal."

"Yes sir." He saluted.

(Care's perspective)

We trekked through ice and snow on foot. I wore the fur clothing Thug made me out of pelt.

I was still freezing.

"How are you not cold?" I asked him.

"Tek armor has insulating features. I can stay warm and cool wherever I go."

"That's really c-c-cool." I shivered.

We marveled at the massive wooly Mammoths and Rhinos we passed. The constantly attacking wolves were annoying and terrifying, thankfully Mika's wolves and my Gorillas took care of any that deemed us as 'prey'; those that hadn't were just as terrifying with their howls that could be heard from the other mountain. Over the constant howls of the wolf packs, there was another sound, like a roar that rattled the bones and shook your core. Even the Tek wolf whimpered whenever we heard it.

I walked toward the sound cautiously. Suddenly, through the ice wind, I saw what looked like a bright white Rex. Then it knocked me back with a tail whip and roared again. This time I could see that it had fur.

"Yutyrannus!" I cried.

I whipped out my rifle and started to load a tranq dart before it was about to attack me.

Then Kong rushed in and punched him in the face.

"Don't kill it!" I called to all the creatures.

"What?" Thug asked.

"Just trust me!" I cried over the rushing sound of the wind.

Then I whistled Kong and the monkeys to distract him.

Once the Yuty turned his attention to them, I shot him in the neck.

The Yuty was smart though, he figured out my plan.

He charged me, ignoring the Gigantopithecus' ground pounding his feet.

I then called to Nymeria and she tased him in the leg. This caused him to collapse on that side and slide through the snow.

It got back up slowly and turned slowly to me.

It Roared loudly in anger. All the creatures in the nearest vicinity fled in terror of the massive beast.

"What are you doing? Attack him!" I ordered.

All the creatures crouched down behind me in fear.

Then the Yuty charged again.

I loaded the tranq as fast as I could. But I wasn't fast enough. The Yuty grabbed onto my right arm and tore it off.

Thug had rushed in just as this was happening in an attempt to prevent it. He punched the Yuty away just after my arm was severed.

I raised my left arm holding the gun and fired. The recoil sent the gun out of my hand but the tranq still hit it.

As soon as it made contact, I took this opportunity to bandage my wound with extra pelt.

Then I looked over to see the Yuty, unconscious.

I limped over and opened its mouth. It still had pieces of my arm and my coat in his teeth.

I fed him some meat and biotoxin for about an hour before my skin turned pale.

I slipped in one more slab of meat before I gave my things to the creatures.

Thug rushed over and gave me something, it was two bottles, one red and one green.

"Drink these." He said.

"How is an energy brew going to keep me alive exactly?" I asked weakly.

"It will give you enough energy to tame the Yuty, then you will die."

"Well that's comforting."

I drank the bottles and ran back to the Yuty, who was almost awake.

I fed it more bio and meat for about 15 minutes before it finally tamed.

I read his stats and it turns out that he was actually a she!

I put all the meat I had left in its inventory and whistled to the creatures to follow Thug.

Thug walked away as I froze to death.

I then respawned somewhat close to them at the bottom of the mountain.

Once Thug and the creatures walked down to me, he tossed me my old purple armor.

I put it on and ran to base before I froze again.

Once I got to the forest area, Thug and the creatures caught up to me, including the Yuty I had tamed.

"What are you gonna name it?" He asked.

I laughed and said, "Snowflake."

Thug chuckled too as we approached the gate of our base.

Mika stood proud at the entrance on top of Vanguard.

I hid Snowflake to surprise her.

"Hello, boys!" She said with enthusiasm.

"You seem excited," I observed.

"I have a challenge for you." She started, "But first, did you tame anything?"

"Yeah, why?" I asked.

"Awesome. Now, whoever has the best tame wins, ok?"

"Alright," I said with a smile.

"You first."

"Well, she is one of my favorite creatures. Her name is Snowflake."

"Seriously? Your awesome tame is named Snowflake?"

I whistled and Snowflake burst forth from the brush and roared loud enough to make your ears ring.

"Woah." She mused, "That's cute."

Then suddenly, something burst through the main gate of the base.

It was the Tek Rex Mika had knocked out earlier today.

It slowly stomped forward and let out an even louder roar than Snowflake's, so much so it almost made me black out.

"I win." She said with a smile.

(Omni's Perspective)

I slowly began to climb up the big stone pillars where I wanted to build my settlement. I stopped once I'd gotten only about 3 feet up.

I turned and found one of my spiders nudging my leg.

It looked at me expectantly.

In turn, I looked at it expectantly since I couldn't tell what it wanted.

It turned and climbed up the stone pillar after a moment.

Once at the top it webbed me and dragged me up to the top.

"Thank you," I said to it, even if it wouldn't understand.

I took some stone and began to lay out a foundation, that is before I ran into a problem, I had nothing to hold these stone bricks together, no mortar or anything, I mean, I have plenty of plant fibre I could use to make a very crude rope… but that won't be useful in this instance.

I turned to my bugs hoping that I'd be able to use one of their abilities, while the spider's webs are sticky… they aren't quite the kind of sticky i need.

I quickly left my bugs to guard my cave, all except one spider who I brought with me out of the cave.

We quickly ran to the swamp where I ordered him to web the first snail I saw.

Once he was properly webbed I just dragged him out of the swamp and into the small grassy area. Once we were there I realized I didn't know what they ate, so I fed it everything… literally. it ate; berries, meat, spoiled meat, even some random shedded bug skin, it still hadn't tamed and I was running out of things to feed it, at this point I'm pretty sure it would have eaten my pickaxe and been ok with it. (1)

I turned and found that my spider had been idling dropping deuces.

Running out of edible items for this snail I took a gamble and fed it the spider feces. Surprisingly it actually seemed ok with it. After another couple minutes of it eating feces it tamed… albeit it didn't change much, it didn't react to my presence but would still follow me, similar to how a stray cat begs for food.

I turned and me, the spider and the snail returned to my cave.

Along the way I collected the slime and hoped I could use it to glue the rocks together, if it doesn't I'll just have to wait till my bugs shed again.

I returned to the cave and to my little spotlight area, I left the snail to wander around so he'd just produce slime wherever he went.

Using the slime I began to build these large stone platforms that connected the stalactites, stalagmites, and the pillars. They actually all connected pretty well, I built a simple rope ladder to get up and a flat wall for all my bugs to crawl up.

On the top of the pillars, I built a small stone shack that was camouflaged with the walls.

Up in the outcropping that let light into the cave I built a trapdoor so I could open and close it to make it harder to spot my base and my defenses. Atop a small stalagmite that was next to one of the lakes I built a tiny greenhouse, of course, it didn't get much light underground but with the spotlight open it would get some, I also created a pipe system and fed water from the lake up into the greenhouse, using the fabricator I had managed to put together. In the shack, I made some AC units and put them in the greenhouse to keep the greenhouse at a suitable temperature for the plants I would be growing. At the back of the greenhouse, I left an open area for something I planned to do in the future. I tinted the glass black to keep people from seeing it easily, then using the last of my metal I built a large metal gateway at the entrance to the cavern I had built my base in.

I returned to my little shack and built a few cannons and ballistae, I began to place them around my base, the cannons were all in one corner, those would be hidden and most people wouldn't know to avoid them.

The ballistae weren't exactly hidden. But they were painted black and dark green to blend in with the small bamboo shoots.

I had begun to run out of metal, which wasn't great.

I used what was left to make myself some tools; I remade my old flare gun, I made myself another Sniper, an Assault Rifle, I made myself a pike and a lance, and the rest I crafted into ammunition.

I was in the process of loading all the cannons and getting them aimed at strategic points when my Arthro's decided to become super aggressive.

They slithered into the water to the other side toward the entrance.

Once they got back to land, they propped themselves up and slowly walked forward.

I heard a scream and the Arthro's backing up in surprise.

"Really?!" He called out, "Your stupid bouncer bugs scared me half to death!" Care yelled as he came into view.

"Nice to see you too," I responded as I descended the rope ladder.

"What brings you way down here?"

"I just wanted to pay my friend a visit, and see how his base building was coming." He responded as his eyes followed my structure to the spotlight.

"Well, it took me a while and I had to substitute cement for snail slime."

"And that's why I'm not living here with you." He joked.

I took him on a small tour of my settlement and the cave.

"This is my little shack, over there is my greenhouse, I have a wall for my bugs to climb up, I have a skylight and a lot of defenses," I explained as I toured my cave.

"Must the bugs follow us?" Care asked.

"Yes, unless you want the non-tamed bugs to swarm us."

"Oh, so you didn't tame every bug you saw this time." He quipped.

"Not yet no, I gotta let most of the meat spoil first."

"Uhuh, sure."

We walked over to see two Araneo's caring for giant eggs on the side of the wall, being coated in slime. I walked over to check the egg, also being coated in the slime.

"You're disgusting, you know that?" Care continued.

"Hey, I wear and wash my armor. And I let them do all the slimy stuff, they enjoy it anyway." I defended.

"That's nasty bro."

"They protect me, I care for them; Symbiotic relationship." I shrugged.

"Yeah but… never mind." He said as he walked off.

He walked over to the snail and began to pat its head gently.

"At least this guy isn't creepy, frankly he's kind of cute." Care said.

"You might not want to touch its face," I advised.

"Why?"

"Nothing."

"How did you tame it?"

"Um… you really don't want to know."

"Nothing can be as bad as Spoiled meat…"

"Oh no believe me it can."

"Just tell me."

"Spider feces…"

Care just looked at me for several long moments until he gagged.

"Exactly," I said.

We walked on through the deeper parts of the cave as Care started to ramble.

"I don't understand why you feel the need to affiliate yourself with these disgusting creatures. They don't serve much of a purpose other than grossing people out or wrecking Tek stuff. My monkeys, on the other hand, are enjoyable to be around and actually quite playful, while on the other hand can single-handedly take on a Rex and win."

"Might I remind you that my Arthro's saved us from countless Tek creatures, but if you are so adamant that they are useless go attempt to ransack the cave at the base of the volcano."

"You know what I may do just that."

"I'm going to come with you, for protection purposes." I chuckled.

"Whatever." He said as he walked out.

…

I jumped off my Argy at the entrance of the cave with Caustic at my side, I looked to my left to see the giant rocky slope of the volcano.

Care swooped down as Blackbolt dropped Bigfoot from his talons and landed.

Care and Kong dismounted as King Louie did the same from Judge.

I pet Judge and walked over to Care.

"If something goes wrong, Caustic will step in. I know these caves better than you do."

"That may be true, but I assure you, you will not need to step in." Care said as he walked in.

He then walked back out of the pitch-black cave.

"It's too dark in there." He complained.

I then tossed him a miner helmet.

"Put this on, your monkeys will need them as well." I directed.

Care put his helmet on and we both equipped the monkeys with their own.

I put my helmet on and followed them into the cave.

I noticed that Care didn't have a weapon equipped.

"Do you really have so much faith in your creatures that you don't even wield a weapon?" I said as my voice bounced around the walls in an echo.

"Wouldn't you have done the same?" He quipped.

I admit, he was right.

We walked down a similar winding staircase-like terrain like in the gas cave where we'd found the artifact. However, instead of there being a small opening ahead, there were two pathways. Behind us were many stalactites and stalagmites.

We walked on until we encountered three Onyc', two Araneo's, and an Arthro.

I gestured to Caustic to be prepared as all the creatures rushed Care and his monkeys.

Care backed up and whistled as all three Gigantopithicus's ground pounded at the same time to shake the cave and the enemy bugs to disorientate them.

As they were still slightly dazed, the monkeys rushed forth and started to pummel the creatures.

King Louie smashed the Onyc' into the walls, ceiling, and floor. Bigfoot had ripped apart one of the Araneo's, took the two pieces in each hand, and sandwiched the other Araneo with them.

And finally, Kong was squaring off with a wild Arthro.

The Arthro lunged at him, but he backhanded him into the wall.

The Arthro attempted an acid blast, but Kong leaned back and watched the ball of acid whiz past him to the other wall of the cave.

He then took the Arthro by the face, slightly crushed it, and slammed it into the ground.

Then he took him by the head and the tail, held it above him, and slowly ripped him in half.

He threw the corpse away just before the acid blood fell on him.

I noticed Caustic slowly crawl back into a corner in fear. Kong just waddled over and petted him. We proceeded through the cave and came into a small cavern, much smaller than the one I'd made my home in.

There were four branches from the chamber, two went up; the one we had come from and another which connected to the other passageway we had not taken previously. The other two went down; one was a short descent until there was a dead end, the other continued on down into the depths of the cave, however, to get there Care's gorillas would need to clear this cave of; 2 Arthro's, 2 Titanoboas, 5 bats, 4 scorpions, 7 Araneo's and 2 dung beetles. These were taken care of after a few moments before we headed deeper into the cave.

At this point, we came across a black circular rock, which seemed to be obsidian.

I thought I may as well harvest it so I took out my pick.

As I walked toward it, however, it started to rise up and down as if it was… breathing.

Care walked to me while his monkeys and Caustic killed everything that moved.

He then noticed what I had already, and as soon as the monkeys stomped back over, a sauropod lifted its head and slowly rose up.

"A Megalosaurus…" I thought aloud.

"A what?" Care asked.

"Basically a nocturnal cave Carno."

"How lovely." Care mused sarcastically as he directed his monkeys to attack.

The Megalo quickly laid waste to our attacks, both Care's and mine.

Then, when Bigfoot went for a left hook, the Megalo grabbed onto her arm and locked its jaw shut while wagging her around maniacally.

Bigfoot roared in pain and punched it several times in the face to drop her.

Once it did, I led her aside and examined the wound quickly.

Her bicep was completely flattened, the bone was crushed. I'm surprised she can even lift her arm.

I wrapped her arm in some spare Araneo webbing I had on me, and I gave her an energy brew to get back in the fight.

She did but hanged back because of her injury.

After a bit of thrashing and punching, Care had an idea.

"Let's knock her out!" He exclaimed excitedly.

I admit it wasn't a bad idea.

We both got out our longneck rifles and shot it with three darts overall.

It wobbled a bit before it crashed to the ground. I rushed over quickly and fed it as fast but as carefully as possible.

"What's the rush?" Care asked with a confused expression.

"Megalo's are nocturnal, they sleep for 12 hours. He won't be out for long." I explained.

"Makes sense." Care replied.

We fed it continuously until it tamed.

"Well hello, Lockjaw." Care mused as it rose from the ground once more.

The Megalo stood up and turned to the left.

We followed its gaze to an eerie green glow emanating from further in the cave. Turning around a rock pillar we found a large green item that hovered over a small natural well of water. Around the well were dozens of bugs; Arthro's, Araneo's, Onyc', Pulminoscorpions, Dung Beetles, Titanoboas, the well of water had a bunch of hungry Piranha and even had a single Sarco swimming around in there.

Lockjaw dashed toward them with the aid of the monkeys. They thrashed around all of the creatures individually as before.

King Louie took on the Onyc' and the scorpions. Bigfoot and Kong took on the Arthro's and Dung beetles. And finally, Lockjaw and Caustic took on the Araneo's, Titanoboas, and the Sarco.

Lockjaw single-handedly killed the Sarco by clamping onto its abdomen and well, locking his jaw to obliterate the Sarco's insides.

After all of the wild creatures were killed, we acquired the artifact and left the cave.

We walked toward the entrance of the cave to see the metal cloud.

It materialized as the enforcer once we came to the opening.

"Hello again, survivors." He mused.

"No," Care said bluntly.

"I beg your pardon?"

"Whatever it is you want, it's a no." Care said as he walked past him.

"I know you have the Clever artifact." He said without turning.

I stopped in my tracks.

"And what are you going to do about it?" I asked.

"Nothing. Just know that I am watching you." He said as he dispersed into his cloud form.

I watched him float away for a moment before we headed back to my cave.

I landed in front of my cave dropping Caustic from Judge's talons. KingLouie dismounted from behind me.

Care landed on my left as Lockjaw burst through the forestry and landed beside him.

"Well, thanks for the fun!" Care exclaimed.

"A pleasure as always," I responded.

I walked into my cave as Care and the monkeys flew off with Lockjaw dashing after them.

Once I got into the main chamber I heard a commotion from behind me.

I turned suddenly to see Blue holding a rocket launcher behind me.

"Hands up, bug man."

(Care's perspective)

I landed in our battlement as Lockjaw dashed over toward me through the gateway.

He stopped in his tracks when he came to my position and started to pant heavily.

Then he walked around in a small circle a couple of times before he curled up on the ground and fell asleep.

"What is that?" Mika asked as she walked over.

"A megalosaurus, basically a cave Carno."

"Cool."

"So, did you tame any other Tek creatures while I was gone?"

"No, haha. But I did tame something called a Troodon. Mary showed me how."

"A what?"

"Basically an overpowered oversized Compy but it basically kills you instantly."

"Can I see?"

We walked over to the main base to see a small creature that is about the same size as a Dilo. It was very skinny and had feathers on the back of its arms like a Raptor.

"How exactly is this skinny thing overpowered?" I asked.

"At night, its senses are improved drastically. On top of that, they travel in packs and each one has a venomous bite that knocks you out faster than a Titanoboa."

"How did you tame it?"

She looked down for a moment and looked back at me.

"Which tame died?" I asked annoyedly.

"A Moschops, don't worry about it. You have to feed it live tames to tame it."

"That's disturbing."

"I know, I love it."

"Are there any others?" I asked.

"Well, of course, they're pack creatures. They hunt together."

Then three other Troodons walk over to us.

"They do look menacing." I mused.

"The first one you saw is Flash, and these guys are Dash, Sprint, and Scout."

"Awesome." I mused.

"How is the prisoner?" I asked.

"She's actually pretty helpful, she helps move tools to me when I need them and she has been helping build the walls."

"That's good, but keep a watchful eye on her, I don't fully trust her yet."

"Yes sir. Well, it's getting late, I'm going to bed." She said as she walked away.

"Me too, see you later."

...

I woke up to stamping and thrashing from outside.

I got outside as fast as I could. It was still dark.

Most of the animals were sleeping but our nocturnal creatures were not. They were very aware of the situation, growling at the wall with their glowing yellow eyes.

I quickly put out all the lights and positioned the nocturnals around the wall in a circle formation.

As soon as they broke in three bright white floodlights sprawled across the base.

The nocturnal creatures avoided the lights with ease.

The lights followed our sleeping Rex and Spino's all the way to our base.

My monkeys crouched over to me. I directed them to attack when the nocturnals do.

They backed away as I pulled out a sniper rifle.

I lay down on my stomach behind a rock.

I examined the attackers and noticed they had three Tek Carno's which were deploying the floodlights.

I saw five riders atop Rex's each, with three other Spino's behind them.

I examined the rider of the biggest Rex to see Penny, the jerk that destroyed our first base.

I turned on my laser aim and aimed for his head. But just as I was about to fire he saw me and they all charged.

Then the nocturnals and the monkeys rushed in.

The fighting woke up all of our creatures and they joined the fight as well.

Drago, our Spino's, and the monkeys took on the enemy's Rex's and their riders. Their Spino's took on the Theri's and Allo's we had while their Tek Carno's took on the nocturnals.

The Carno's, to my surprise, could actually deploy weaponry from their own bodies. They had machine guns on their hips, a minigun in their tails, rockets that deployed from their horns, and a railgun from their foreheads.

Eventually, their Rex's and Spino's were killed and they retreated with two of their Tek Carno's.

The third one was not dead, however, but it was severely injured. The nocturnals were closing in before I commanded everything to stop.

I walked up slowly to the Carno to notice it was whimpering. It was badly damaged with parts of it everywhere.

Metal, Tek, and Scrap were scattered all over the base with a majority of it around it as it lay on its side.

Mika walked up to me slowly to hand me a red Jerry can of gasoline.

"What's this?" I whispered.

"They eat oil, gasoline is like the prime meat for Tek creatures."

I took the can from her and slowly poured it into its mouth. It drank it up quickly.

It made a metallic satisfied gurgling sound. That's the best way I could describe it.

Once the entire can was drained, it slowly got up and looked at me. Then all of its weapons contracted and it lowered its head slowly.

"What's it doing?" I thought aloud.

"I think it's trying to see if it can trust you," Mika observed.

It lowered its head so it was at the same level of my height.

I hesitated at first, but I slowly held up my hand.

It slowly pushed its face into it.

As this was happening, all of the metal pieces around it slowly started to tremble and magnetize back to the Carno.

Then it pulled away, turned to the opening in the wall where the attackers retreated and roared while all of its weaponry deployed and fired into the distance.

I then noticed that there were old scratches across its face and body.

"Looks like he wasn't treated right," Mika observed.

"Well, he will be here," I said.

"What do you want to name him?"

"Arsenal." I mused.

"I love it!" She yelled.

"Why thank you." I mused.

Then Mary flew down on her eerie Argy.

"I heard a commotion, is everything alri- Woah." She mused as she noticed Arsenal, "Since when did you get a Tek Carno?"

"Like five seconds ago," I replied.

"How?"

"Raiders came, we killed their stuff, they abandoned him. He wasn't treated right so he was willing to join us."

"I've never seen a creature willingly give themselves to a survivor before…" She trailed off.

"Well, I guess I'm the first," I said proudly.

"Do you need help with repairs?" She asked, referring to the giant hole in our battlement.

"Yes please." Mika butted in.

…

We finally finished the wall at dawn, Mary mostly helped us by telling stories about her adventures in the ark, taming Gigas, destroying raiders, she was basically the peacekeeper of the ark.

At one point though, she started to talk about a great battle she had.

"One day when I was exploring near the green obelisk, I flew down to investigate it, maybe see where it came from.

However, when I got to the base of the beacon, there was a giant hole in the far wall filled with webs."

"Oh great, a bug story." I mused.

"It wasn't as gross as you think," She continued, "Once I approached, there were many spiders that crawled out of the mouth of the cave on all sides, with the Broodmother closely following."

"What's the Broodmother?" Mika asked.

"The Broodmother Lystrix is a giant green spider, it's about as tall as a Giganotosaurus. It commands all insects around it, except for those loyal to their owners. I have discovered that there are two other creatures of this class."

"Can we fight it?" Mika asked excitedly.

"You can, but you must be prepared. If you lose, the Broodmother and her children will devour you and your creatures."

I then turned to Mika and said, "I'll get Omni."

"Maybe Thug and Bria would like to join as well." Mika continued.

"Alright, you go to the Redwoods, I'll go to Omni's cave, meet back here in an hour."

"Hold on." Mary started, "As I said, you must be prepared. You will need several Rex's."

"We'll be fine, we have a Tek Rex," I said as I mounted Blackbolt.

She sighed and flew off.

…

I landed in front of the cave and ran inside. I dashed around cave walls, through different cave hallways until I eventually went to the main chamber where Omni's base is.

I was greeted by two Arthro's that snuggled up to my legs. If they were Saber's I'd think it was cute, but not this time.

"Welcome back!" Omni shouted from atop his tower.

"OH YES SOMEONE TO SAVE ME!" Blues voice echoed from further down the cave.

"Ignore him," Omni said in an irritated tone.

"Is that Blue?"

"Yeah… tried to attack me. I decided to cage him instead of simply killing him. This way he can't bother anyone else anymore."

"Oh how I wish I could share that with you."

He slid down his zipline and landed right in front of me.

"What brings you to these parts?" He said jokingly in a cowboy accent.

"How would you like to kill the mother of all spiders?"

(1) So snails in real life are known to be able to consume anything (according to jdog) so why can't the snails in ark be the same way?
