[Purple waited for the others to walk in before he pulled a lever on the rocky walls, activating a bunch of pistons that were attached with netherite. The others turned around to stare at the giant entrance that was now blocked with netherite.]
[Purple then clapped his hands, the echoing ring of that one simple gesture filling up the caverns. It caught everyone's attention, too, despite them being on edge and in nearly completely darkness.]
Purple: You can lower your defense. These outsiders are simple visitors. They will not bring anyone harm.
[There was a long moment of silence before suddenly the cave lit up with life. Torches were placed neatly on the sides, and there were many nicely built houses surrounding the caverns. Lanterns hung down from the ceiling as many bats squeaked and flew around the light. There were many bushels of flowers and even a small pond sitting beside a bell.]
[The beauty of it all was amazing to everyone as they all dropped their jaws in sync. But the moment quickly shifted to panic as many mobs appeared from the houses and from out of practically nowhere, filling the cave with groans, hisses, and clatters.]
[Second grumbled for a moment before turning to Purple, his expression firm as he reached for his sword. Chosen's hands set ablaze as Blue twirled his sword in his hand. Todd yelled before hiding behind Blue, eyeing the mobs with a whine.]
[Purple simply scoffed towards them as he walked forward.]
Purple: Relax. These mobs are friendly. Follow me, Green is this way.
[Second sighed for a moment, not sure if he trusted Purple's words. He slowly followed behind Purple, eyeing the many zombies, creepers, and skeletons that surrounded the homes. Blue and Chosen followed close behind, also cautious.]
Blue: How can you befriend so many mobs? Is this because of the glitches?
Purple: Glitches? You know about those, too?
Second: Yeah, we know too much about them. And that's why we need to talk to you and Green. That's why we're here.
[Purple hummed before he walked up a staircase, leading to a treehouse with extremely detailed proportions. Second groaned in awe as he halted, looking back towards the zombies as he heard something strange. It sounded like singing.]
[Second slowly turned back before eying a zombie and a skeleton talking normally, but singing different notes for communication. You could even see different colored notes flying out of his mouth as he spoke each word. Second's brow raised in utter disbelief before Purple called out for him.]
Purple: Hey, are you guys coming or not?
[Second turned to the others before he put his sword away, walking into the tree house with curiousity. The others also followed, giving Purple a glare as they walked in. Purple came in last, shutting the door gently before locking it without anyone knowing or hearing.]
[Instantly, everyone was impressed. The treehouse was made out of spruce and oak, and lighting up the area was a mix of lanterns and torches. The first floor seemed to be a library since it was mostly bookshelves and tables to read at. Todd looked around in boredom before he eyed something of interest.]
Todd: OH MY GOSH, HE HAS A LAVA LAMP!!
[Blue turned to Todd as he raced over to the table where the 3 lava lamps sat. He'd stare at each one, his eyes reflecting the colorful lights of the lava lamp. Blue shook his head with a smirk before Chosen finally made the flames fade from his hands completely.]
Purple: Green? We have a few visitors.
Chosen: Hey, Purple, do you have an outlet by chance?
Purple: Nah, we just have a tabletop lamp with a cable fading into the unknown.
