It had taken them After Blace, Titon and Dorin had been kidnapped, killed, and used in the dungeon's monstrous experiments... The party hadn't fractured immediately, but it "That was easy." He commented, putting them in a pouch. "Let's get going. The sooner we get past the Sixth, the better." "Too easy," Auora stated with a frown. "After so long... It was too…-

-0-0-0-0-0- Layla's Office, The Guild Hall, Medea Island -0-0-0-0-0- "Wait. You said the dungeon is what?!" Isid exclaimed, shocked. The other two party leaders in the room were too stunned to say anything but obviously wanted answers too. Guildmistress Losat sighed. "My final question was why the dungeon couldn't answer the questions personally, as it had done before," The Guildmistress answered her aunt. "The Kobold, though hesitant, replied that she believed it to be undergoing some kind of…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Scorpan Village, The Ninth Floor, The Dungeon -0-0-0-0-0- Skitters-Across-The-Sand was resting on her bed-nook when she heard the thundering sound of legs on the sand, which could only herald the approach of her scorplings. At the head of the pack of unruly juveniles was Sprints-Into-Danger. The girl was the smallest of the clutch but was the fastest of them all. She was named that for her habit of running directly toward loud noises and movements. Following close behind were her…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Guildmistress's Office, The Guild Hall, Medea Island -0-0-0-0-0- Layla Losat was making her final preparations for the evening ahead. She ran through the list, double-checking that they were ready. There was just one thing left to confirm. "The animals?" She asked Felin. The man hefted the cages of fertile hedgehogs and grunted a 'check.' "Good, then that's everything," Layla stated before she turned to look out the window. "With about... ten minutes to spare, I think. Despite the late…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Drake-Kin Village, The Seventh Floor, The Dungeon -0-0-0-0-0- Kata was going about her day, as usual, when something peculiar happened. Over a few seconds, every single monster in her sight... stopped. They slowed and paused what they were doing. They all stiffened, and she saw the sudden panic in their eyes. The next moment, they all turned and rushed toward the center of the village. None spoke a word, though they were sprinting in their growing mania. Kata was left alone on the…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Dungeon, Medea Island, Kalenic Sea -0-0-0-0-0- As dawn broke on a new day, I decided to perform a top-down inspection of my Dungeon. The First floor, my first creation. It was minimalist, simplistic, and, by now, trivialized. The Crabs' strengths, attacks, and weaknesses were well-known. Their tactics were simple and easily countered. It wasn't something I was going to change, either. Ultimately, I had always known the first floor would become an introduction, an entrée. The Second…

-0-0-0-0-0- Cliffside Village, The Sixth Floor, The Dungeon -0-0-0-0-0- Bahumet wandered the village in a thoughtful mood. Every so often, his gaze drifted towards the Scorched Plains below, watching the party of guilders slink away. As promised, they'd brought the requested items and traded them for a weight of the villager's wool. Bahumet knew what they'd use the wool for. It was obvious. They'd use it to fashion more heat-resistant armor and cloaks so they could stay on the Sixth longer. Whether to…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Dungeon, Medea Island, Kalenic Sea -0-0-0-0-0- The Eleventh Floor, being an expanded space, felt extremely strange. It was an absolutely enormous space that should reach from the mantle to space and is only half the size of Poland surface-area-wise. On the other hand, the room was only ten yards by twenty and thirty yards. That's the physical amount of space it occupied, despite the interior dimensions. It was... mindboggling huge, and far more extensive than I had intended. Despite…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Dungeon, Medea Island, Kalenic Sea -0-0-0-0-0- I let my attention settle across the Tenth, watching all its creatures go about their daily routines. The Minotaur population had grown to almost triple the original group I raised to monsterhood. Given the females ' more verbose nature, I had expected them to be a matriarchy. Against those expectations, they had elected a "First Bull" and adopted polygamy; the stronger the bull, the more wives he gathered. Their village was very visually…

-0-0-0-0-0- The Dungeon, Medea Island, Kalenic Sea -0-0-0-0-0- As the raid of platinums ensconced themselves in a cave, I had a choice before me. I have made a regular pattern of night being particularly difficult for delvers, either by introducing special monsters or increasing their aggressiveness. For the Sixth floor... and for this group in particular... I won't go too hard. The environment itself is pretty hostile, and with them in that cave... I COULD throw monsters at them and murder them all…
