Aristaeus is flying around, trying to find a newcomer to talk to.
You see the Alastir talking to a Pixie clone.
“Hello!”
Alastir turns to look at you. “Oh, hello there, dear friend. Enjoying your forgettably short life?” The Pixie clone simply smiles and waves at you, but seems to do so with force.
“..we’ve lived for eons. We don’t plan on dying anytime soon.” They turn turn to pixie clone. “Hello.”
“You’ve lived for eons. Again. Short, pitiful life.”
“Hiya”
“Hiya.” They say, mimicking the pixie clone.
Alastir covers his mouth and giggles slightly. The Pixie clone got mad. “Hey! Don’t copy me!”
“Hey! Don’t copy me!” They mimic them perfectly again.
The pixie clone screams an adorable battle cry and charges in to attack you, but simply hits your knees or whatever a swarm has.
Aristaeus mimics the battle cry, and as soon as they are near the swarm, they start spinning around her rapidly. Make a DC 18 strength save. On a fail, they take 19 bludgeoning, 12 fire, and 11 poison damage and are flung 20 feet away. On a success, they aren’t thrown and take half the bludgeoning damage.

The Pixie clone explodes into a pile of red goo.
“Good riddance.”
“Congrats. You committed a murder. I’d recommend you run.” Alastir teleports away while the sound of running appears behind you.
Aristaeus appears from a torch next to the entrance. They scatter in the desert sands.
A horde of Pixie clones erupts from the cave mouth to chase you.
Aristaeus forms back together and casts fireball on the horde. DC 18 dex save, 25 fire damage on a fail, half on a success.
You cause some of the Pixie clones to explode, but it barely makes a dent in the horde, which is still chasing you. They release a thunderous cry. DC 20 con save please.

The screech causes you to pass out. When you wake up, you find yourself laying down in your room with Pixie sitting in the corner, reading a book.

*No. It’s a simple extremely high pitch screech.*
*ah*
“Hello, pixie.” They say.
“Ah. You’re awake. Good afternoon, sibling. I apologize for the behavior of the Pixie clones. They don’t take kindly to people blowing them up. Or copying them.”

“Huh. At least it was fun. Anyways, where are we?”
"I am Sister Zerreal. I am hoping the Pixie clones didn't give you to much trouble."
"Not really. someone named....Aristaeus saved me from them."
"Ah, brother Aristaeus. He seems to be following the oath."
"The-the oath??"
"To become a proper sibling, you must take an oath to protect us and all of the members of the cave. The being that saved you is following this oath perfectly."
"Can-can I take it??"
Mimikyu can’t see, but Sister Zerreal smiled. “Of course, young one. Please, follow me.”
Mimikyu follows Sister Zerreal
She leads you to an ornate door. She pushes this door open, revealing more red robes sisters waiting for Mimikyu.
Veri is waiting by the giant door, curious as to what is going on on the other side.
The doors open to reveal multiple red robes sisters lined up facing you. Sister Zerreal walks over to line up with them.
Veri walks inside, no semblance of emotion in their entire being. The spear looks around at each of the red robed followers, gets bored after a few seconds, and closes its eye.

"...yes..." Again, it takes great effort for her to respond. The spear opens its eye again, and watches with great interest.
"Oh, now we're getting to the good part! Here it comes!"
Behind you, a black robes sister speaks. “Then by the power granted to me, I pronounce you Sister Veri.” You feel a sudden power course through your veins. It lingers for a while, but disappears entirely after a few seconds.
Davras looks over at Veri and the spear and smiles slightly at them. If they look closer, Veri and the spear can see that Davras is not so much of indeterminate gender as they are a pleasant mix of male and female features.
Davras continues following the guide deeper into the caverns.
The guide leads you to a door the size of a dragon.
Davras looks intrigued and impressed by the door. They wait for the guide to open it.
Sister Zerrean opens the door. Revealing multiple people wearing red robes just like the guide. They are lined up facing you.
Davras goes inside. They seem calm and resolute, not frightened at all.
Your guide joins the sisters and they all say this.
A black robes sister behind you says, “Then by the power granted to me, I pronounce you Sibling Davras.”
Davras smiles. It’s a warm, contented smile, like someone coming home after a long journey.
The sister remove their cloaks, revealing tentacles instead of hair and green skin. The one in black speaks. “Welcome, sibling Davras. Sister Zerreal will take you to your room.” The one that had guided you steps forward.
Davras follows Sister Zerreal to their room.
You pass multiple corridors until you see one with the left wall completely removed, showing a group giant humanoids with abnormal features. They all have a black exoskeleton, except for one, which is white.
Davras observes them carefully.
They are a multitude of different shapes. One has the head of a hammerhead shark and an extra pair of clawed arms coming from its pits. Another has eight eyes in a rectangular form and spider like legs. They seem to be messing with a Boulder, picking it up and throwing it into a hole in the wall.
Davras watches the humanoids with the keen eye of a trained assassin, but does nothing unless they approach them.

A small portion of Aristaeus is also hovering above one of them, but then flies away as soon as sister Zerreal enters the room.

Davras also keeps an eye on the hornets, but if they fly away they don’t follow them.

“Hm.” They fly over to a spare corpse on the floor and possess it. “Why are you in our room?”
She gets up and opens the door, revealing a group of Pixie clones fighting over who gets to kill you. “That’s why.” She closes the door.
