In the year 2034...
Mining can be dangerous, being crushed, suffocated, or trapped and starved to death are only the usual risks. You could also be redirected into the sewer and drowned, shot by other rogue miners, or eaten alive by monsters from the depths. But they pay is good, the right merchants will pay handsomely for minerals or metals, and the wrong merchants will pay the gear you steal from other miners.

There are small shards of copper poking through the walls and floor, they grow more numerous the deeper you go.

Ilden is woken up by the sound of a stray mutant rooster until this is broken by the twin booms of a old fashioned coach-gun. The sun is brightly shining through the window and hole in the floor.

The copper comes out of the dirt easily, although as you paw through the earth you see several large centipedes crawling away.

I awake hunger games style, swinging the assault rifle's sight around the room before I stand up properly and brush my now untamed hair back. I leave the hotel and see If I can visit any kind of market place before heading back into the mines.

You pick out two more bits of copper before continuing.
As you tread into the depths of the mine you hear a chitter as a giant centipede rears away from you before disappearing into the dark.

Mostly you just find more of the turquoise gem although you notice some very dense opaque blue crystal creeping up the larger formations.

"This should be Saccharine City, the rest of our trip should be through here." Alazzander replies. Penny squints at the city wall and suddenly laughs.
Leading you Al-ice and her charge to the area she points to a couple of wanted posters plastered to the cement.
One shows a picture of Alazzander, above the sum of reward money ($10,00)
above a list of his crimes (Planning to overthrow the government, treason, theft, terrorism.)
A second poster shows Pennys face. She rips this down before you can read her crimes and a single wanted poster is left on the wall.
Yours.
A unflattering photo of your face taken some three years ago stands above the sum $500 and your crimes. (Violence, murder, unauthorised mining, and misbehaviour.)

"Wow cool! I guess I did kill that guy, didn't I?" I tear down the poster, "Maybe we should change our appearance. I know, let's all get face tattoos!"

The fragment you close your fingers around starts thrashing around madly
and nips you with what must be mandibles as the critter turns out to be a brassy coloured beetle.

The blue gem is very hard and non-brittle, proving very hard to remove from the main structure.

Your match goes.
After the initial panic you hear Samantharina sigh "Well thats the filthy light gone 'en. Can you find the box in the dark?"

Penny shakes her head.
"That would make us to conspicuous. We should be careful though, the Jigjams won't pass up a chance like this."
Sissy nod energetically. "Yeah, they'd fill you with lead in an instant and take your facial cartilage for bling If the see a price on your head.
