Exploring the Chasm

We entered the chasm with rudimentary climbing gear in search of the creature below. As we descended, the mineralized walls transitioned from a moist yellow soil to a scaly, dark pink one. Further down, all became pulsating crimson. Eruptions of thick pink gas covered us as we continued our descent. Reaching the bottom, we discovered its source: a webbed curtain stretched across the chasm's diameter, suspending an orifice with a chitinous, beak-like mouth at its center. From this creature, a thickly-veined tube snaked its way further into the rock. We have found carnivorous life, and it may be the planet itself.

The command below will trigger the "Exploring the Chasm" event in Stellaris:

When this event fires, you can choose between these 3 options:

• Extract the mouth.
  • Leads to event: Extraction
• Extract the mouth.

Stellaris events fire in chains — one event leads to the next. Here is how Exploring the Chasm (astral_rift.3130) connects.
