The chaos ended, and inside a large cavern, a massive black egg rested. Almost twenty meters tall, it rolled on its side and nested on a massive pile of radiant, green ore. From the depths of the darkness, a tall, muscular woman walked toward the egg, dragging a massive cart full of more of those green ores, and threw them at the base of the egg.
She stood there for a while, staring at the pile of glowing ore with a large grin on her face. "Your mom might not be here, but I'll take her place. Everyone calls me Mother Earth for a reason." That woman was Gaia, the Earth Spirit Queen. She had been gathering Uranium ores from the depths of the plant and had built a nest for Arad with them.
Based on what Gojo told them, ideally, eating the ore would be best. But what they need is the death curse radiating from the ores, not the ores themselves. Building a nest like this where the curse can bathe Arad's evolving body, was better than nothing.
