Most of my kind would shun me, for I have used the forbidden powers and taken root above the surface. But I will grow a new family. One less stupid than the old.}}

You may use this space to land and rest, should your flight method require such a thing. If you are ever having difficulty flying and need to speak with me, stand at the base of my mushroom and say "Mope, Up!" and I shall hoist you.
 
But please do not take any mushrooms up here!}}

Since your presence here has been generally beneficial, I will incentivize you to return; you are welcome to use my fungal fortress to hide your material wealth. I shall keep your items safe.
 
In fact, if you wish to enter my fungal domain yourself, speak with me further.}}

This could not have happened at a worse time, for my first batch of new myconians has begun to gain sentience, using recovered heartshrooms. These innocents are alone down there without any guidance... except the guidance of Imarak's cruel teacher-mantises!
; I see, I had another question.
I will gladly give you the knowledge I can. You will need it to survive the traps and foes below! Beware entering the Gob-Lands areas; I counsel avoidance.
; Tell me about the traps.
: Originally, our home was protected by classic psi-fungal traps. But under Imarak's guidance these were enhanced with surface-world mechanisms. This seemed wise in the moment, but now that I have been betrayed by Imarak, it is unfortunate, for I cannot deactivate them.
;: What sort of mechanisms are we talking about?
: I have seen large crystals which fire blasts of spores. These crystals have limited amunition, but each shot is quite lethal.
: The crystals can be deactivated by levers hidden elsewhere in the caves.
;: Okay, what else besides spore-crystals?
: Perhaps the most effective defense mechanisms are simply large stone blocks that cannot be tunneled through. These blocks sit on elaborate mechanical platforms which are, again, controlled by levers elsewhere. These levers are well-guarded.
;: Giant stone bocks? Okay. What else?
: They've been hiring subterranean... entrepreneurs... to work as guardians. Expect an assortment of deadly creatures.
; Tell me about the Gob-Lands tunnels.
: Beneath our caves are a network of stone-block rooms. I do not know their creator; Imarak suggested they are of dwarven origin, but Imarak is untrustworthy.
: These rooms are connected to the Gob-Lands tunnel system, and serve as a sort of way-station for goblins moving through the area.
: We treated these rooms as "neutral territory," to use a goblin term. We traded with some travelers and otherwise left them alone.
;: And then what happened?
: After Imarak wrested control of my fungus-men, some visiting goblins became infected. They escaped into the tunnels and caused discontent in nearby goblin tribes.
: Soon, so-called Peacemasters arrived, ready to destroy all hint of fungus. I was unable to intervene to protect my fungus-men, and most in the lower tunnels perished. But Imarak had prepared traps or them, as her brood is being raised on the second floor.
: I suspect you will find Imarak down there, still defending against Gob-Lands invaders. This presents a strategic opportunity: while she is focused on these invaders, she won't be prepared for your attack.
; Send me to the caves!
Very well. I still have some control over my layer, for I still embody many of the mushrooms inside. I cannot see very far into the tunnels, but I can hear. If you say "Mope, Home!" aloud, then stand still for a few seconds, I will telepathically hoist you back to the cave entrance. Use my aid to your advantage. I offer it freely.
Are you and your friends ready to enter?
