I jumped over the rail and dove into the water with the white nylon-like rope trailing behind me. I pierced the water, but the air made swimming a bit awkward, but I would be okay. I could see the wrecks of ships everywhere, this was really a graveyard for the ones that didn't get away. I swam back up to the surface and grabbed fresh air and then dropped down to catch up with the other three that were already swimming down. I would be interested to go take a look at them one day, who knows what could…-

Flashes passed through my vision as I fell endlessly into a bottomless void. I couldn't open my eyes because I didn't have eyes to open, but that didn't stop the flashes of memories. I couldn't focus on any single one, but I slowly started to get a feeling of understanding. It was like a gate was opened that blocked knowledge that was stored somewhere deep inside of me. Water. The ocean. The Creatures. Swimming, I somehow understood it all. Crabs, I still didn't like them or most of the other things, but…

"They are waiting for us, you can wait till tonight," Lesha said while flipping her hair over her shoulder. "This is your fault that I am this riled up!" I complained as the two of us left the room. "I know, but you listen better when I make your brain melt out your ears. Sometimes you're almost as bad as a man!" Lesha said to tease me. "You are evil, and I will figure some way to tease you!" I said, grabbing her sides and pulling her into a kiss before we left the hall and back out onto the ship's…

Braum finished explaining the rest of the process, but the part where you retrieved the Gem Heart was a bit hazy. There were different ways to do it, but there was a general principle that everyone followed. The Flexil stayed inert until one of their gems were taken, and after that, it was a race back to the ship. Each group had its own way of doing it, but the general consensus is that tying a rope on yourself was the best route. That was fine, but the average depth was fifteen meters, and that was a…

I walked with the girls down onto the docks, and the smell of the salt was stronger here, along with various other smells. Why did the whole area smell like...no, I wasn't going to think about it. The boat was starting to sound like a good idea rather than stay around all these invasive smells. I looked at the other girls, and everyone but Gloria and Lesha had their noses scrunched up. "The Dead Right be up ahead, once onboard, head to the front of the boat so yer doesn't get in the way of the…

Know that I couldn't always trust the things Drania said that were disturbing. I had to wonder what other lies that she had told me. We had got back down to the mess hall and Corbit, and Tim was down there waiting for us. Corbit can over and gave me a quick hug, but then backed away quickly. "Sorry Guild Leader! I am just glad to see you're okay!" Corbit said with a bit of embarrassment. "I hope you don't think I am going to give you a hug too," Tim said with a smile. "No, not this time, but it is…

"How do we do it?" I asked once I was standing inside the small room with the girls. "You don't need to do anything but be near the stone" Called the familiar voice of Healia. I was surprised, I thought that I would have had to do something like touch the stone and say some words. "How is everything back there?" I asked, a bit worried about what I might get back for a replay. "Things are good, but your brother Mort died, so there is that," Healia said casually, but that made me rush up to the…

Milo came back with a contract that said I and my party would not talk about what was said inside of this room outside it. It was simple enough, but then Milo asked if Candi would need to sign contracts. 'You can control her if she gets out of control, but now that you have bit her both her and Trinity will be less wild.' -Drania. "She will be fine, the one that's cuddled into her is a werewolf, so I think she will be fine, neither of them is very good at being monsters," I explained to Milo after Lesha…

"This is the Item that you got from the Dungeon Core? I thought it gave items of great power and such?" I asked, a bit puzzled. I hadn't expected this lamp to be the magical item Kal had been talking about. It did look nice, but nothing about it said magical item of great power. Milo let out a laugh, and then picked up the lantern. "Believe me, after all the time I spent inside of the dungeon to get to the final prize, and this is what the glowing red crystal gives me! At first, I didn't even know how…

It was every bit as bad as it looked, and only Lesha tipping the cup up made me finish, but I scowled at her after. There were no immediate changes to me, but it was a cup of sewage, I didn't hold many expectations. After I finished, we headed to the back of the hall to a set of stairs that led down. Even as I started to walk, I could feel the difference, and it was like a wave of relief washed most of the fatigue away. The hall we all walked down into was made of stones and mortar, and there were five…
