On a nameless world, the Zuppon Mining Co. conducts a mineral survey near a naturally formed clump of GT.
"Man, I could get used to these open spaces."

"Survey is almost complete, sir! We're double checking the analysis now!"

"Everything looks good. According to the estimate, GT has been forming here naturally for nearly 600,000,000 years."

"Now that is a tremendous find! I think it's safe to call it in. I'll meet you guys back at the ship."

*BZAP*

"Take cover!"
"Who are they?"
"No time! Get behind the rock!"

"Comms are jammed. We're on our own. Any suggestions?"
"This survey tool can shoot a GT projectile when overcharged. I bet I can take one of them out."

"Got one in my sights now."

*BOOM*
*THUNK*
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"

"Excellent shot! Overcharge that thing again and let's mop up the rest!"
"Right!"

"Oh... Then again-"

*PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW*

"Come on, mate. You're going to be alright."
"It burns like crazy!"

"Is there a problem here?"
"Sir, no sir!"

"What happened to this soldier?"
"As you can see, the miners shot a piece of overcharged GT right through him, my lord."

"Is is painful?"
"What do you think?! No, I'm having the time of my life here, genius!! Get it out! Get it out!"

"The kingdom thanks you for your service. Allow me to ease your suffering."
"Wait! What are you-"

*PEW*

"My valiant warriors, today we do not claim victory. Today, we send a message to our foes. Avalon will have her revenge!"
"HUZZAH!!!!"
