[Daria always had the love of gaining knowledge. Of course, this never usually had to come with putting her life in danger. Not until recent years in all of her interdimensional travel. Which she just so happened to be forced to go into again. So now she was stuck with many mysteries, and only her own two feet and big brain usable to solve them. There was always a weird curiosity with the Bugsnax, and Daria had been eager to learn.

She won't admit to being somewhat glad to finish her research, if to say she didn't leave with any stones unturned.

Wendy had remained her loyal companion, seemingly drifting from the hivemind of the usual fauna of the island the longer she hang with Daria. Which she was thankful for, as the more she uncovered...the more cosmically horrorifying these googly eyed food monsters seemed. Not that it also didn't fit her dark sensibilities, she was able to stomach it all for that.

But she couldn't help it either.

The video would open to Daria in a dark cavern, the Undersnax. With a flashlight, donning gloves, goop all over her combat boots (which she would be seen collecting in sterile jars), she moved the camera up to the wet walls and with some hidden cave paintings of what looked like...]


What a warm welcome back here indeed. Cannibalism, ancient sacrifice, unnatural body horror, oh my.

[She turned the camera to her face, which was a little sweaty from the dampness of the air.]

Hate to say it, but I still prefer this over the moogles. The Bugsnax themselves don't seem dangerous still, even if they all seem to function in a community here. Just, again, don't eat them.

Given this entire island is Bugsnax all the way down? May as well.

[It was a complete horror show once you really looked into things, from the ground up-]

Most certainly he will. I have things to add to what you have discovered as well, and likely best discussed once you are well out of dodge and we are both back on the surface.

I have made some other discoveries and theories.

Indeed- but at least it seems there is evidence they have been broken from the hive mind and developed on their own. Precaution still for the best.

Hopefully you don't either- if you know where the waterfalls are, I can meet you there.
