"Give us the fossils! We came here for them, SO WE CAN PAWN THEM FOR CASH! CASH FOR GOLD!"

"I-I have no fossils man, I-I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING! A-ALL I HAVE TO MY NAME IS THIS FLYING GEM!"
The male one motions for the miner to give him the gem, "Good enough, hand it over! We need fossils for the boss, in order to get funds, see? And the ones from the lab weren't enough! Give us your gem, your donation will be accepted with great nonchalance!"
