Cave Dwellers
The "Cave Dwellers" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Cave Dwellers

Exhausting the first site, we decided to move to more remote places in search of more material for research. … found a good enough spot, a cave that served as a home for some intelligent extinct species. Careful probing and examination revealed something unusual: whatever lived in this cave used an ingenious dye that reveals itself when exposed to heat and light. We have identified two types of paintings: one telling the story of the past, and the other portraying daily life. Unfortunately, we disrupted the delicate ecosystem that preserved the drawings. The resulting chain reaction, combined with the age of the dye, causes it to fade and disappear on short notice. The team must decide which one is worth saving.
