The Central Sphere [Main & Supporting Cast]
S. H. for The Moles
(Four parts available: Graith, Chokkle, Scoop and Wormil)
Description: Not big parts, but a lot of fun! Believed to be the last surviving clan of master diggers, the moles were awakened from their long hibernation by Festulas Squit. They have an uneasy alliance with him, following his commands with unnerving loyalty, mainly since he possesses their civilisation's most sacred artefact: The Egg of Gertrude.
Voice: Gravelly, strained, exhausted, the Moles should feel tragic. They may be aiding a great evil, but they're innocent in their intent - having very little knowledge of what they're actually doing.
They find solace in each other. The labour is back-breaking, and the working conditions are worse, but they have a strong bond and a shared sense of camaraderie when things are looking up.
However, they are deeply terrified of Squit, and address him with reluctant reverence.

(Terrified) Your word is our law, sir. You tell us how far you mean us to cut into this accursed rock and we will do it. Our lives are yours. To do with as you please. Our deaths are a small price to pay...
(Shocked) By the grace of Climpanion- that's over 21 feet, guv! 21 feet in two hours!
(Endearing, followed by confidence) You lads... You lads are the best. Our ancestors thought they knew how to dig. Ha! They were beginners!
