You find yourself within the lounging area of the LAMINAX facility. Due to the power situation, all the lights are off and the forcefield surrounding the lounge is disabled. For whatever reason, you venture off into the crystal caverns. The large crystals glow a bright white and help illuminate your path as you head in the direction of the Garden section of the facility. As you make it halfway, you begin to get the feeling you're being watched, but you shrug it off to paranoia. As you make it to the Garden area, you glance around the area and decide to rest at the base of the tree in the middle. Once you get comfortable, you see a streak of yellow light. As you follow it with your eyes, you see what is unmistakably a Panther Gootraxian. They must have followed you from the caverns. They glare at you and start growling gently, seems they aren't hostile yet, but they begin to circle you. They await your next move.
