The carriage drives pulled away, and they were off to Beacon again. While in the carriage, Bergen told Cynthia more about his past.

"I have this obsession with digging, you know. Back at home, i had an enormous mine shaft underneath the village! I found all sorts of stuff underground. But my best find was a pair of fossilized Boarbatusk tusks. I carved them, and outfitted them with chainsaw tracks, and i use them as my weapon. However, the current village mayor was very superstitious, and felt that the tusks would bring bad luck. So, I was banished. They were going to throw me into the blizzard that surrounded the town, but i had a plan. That night, I grabbed some dust canisters and headed for the mine. I started digging, as fast as i could. After hours and hours, i ran out of dust. When i surfaced, i was in the middle of orientation at Beacon."
