Chapter 4

  Quest Reach for the sky. Reach the surface within 30 days.

  "Nice, I now have four goals. Get to the surface. Finish my first Room. Collect a total of 1,000 Units of Stuff. And last but not least plant my mushroom. Since my mushroom will provide me with more mana sources we should start there. Spot, Blanche what do you guys think about a new friend. Well don't get jumpy about it." She laughs at her own joke. " So let's move the decaying debris to the finished corner from the inventory. Now let's try visualizing planting a mushroom from the inventory have to use my will. I hope this eventually will become second nature to me because as this stands I hate the feeling a strange type of push pull on my mind." She visualizes and the mushroom appears in her pile.

  "Water we need water." As she looks around her cave, then checks her inventory to find a tiny bit in there perhaps no more than three cups full. Ceselee then visualizes a cup or water falling over the mushroom and wills it into existance from her inventory.

  “I have gained a level. I'm so happy right now that I've completed one task on my list. I even received 2 points to distribute. We only have three attributes: Soul, Intelligence, and Wisdom. Since Intelligence and Wisdom are my lowest stats, one in each. Making one 11 and 16 respectively. Raising them also raises my mana generation a little. I am beginning to understand that this cave is mana deficient.”

  In a convoluted tone she added,”Tis why I'm not gaining what I should.” That was strange, she thought. Where did that come from?

  “Anyway, back to my Quest list. Wait Wait backup a little. Why didn't I make any levels in sound I've been talking this whole time haven't I? Well I guess right now I have no real way to test it so that will be on the back burner."

  Looks over everything again.

  "Hey system you there." Nothing answers. "It's never that easy. Visualize what I want and how it works and will it into creation." A pretty ornate pad appears with a blinking cursor. "Okay, think at the pad," she grumbles. "I need an assistant. Someone that will talk back to me. Make it so I don't go crazy. A friend. Think think think. Perhaps a dungeon fairy. Sometimes I wonder where my thoughts and experiences come from no matter. Let's see if I can will this creature into existence."

  On the pad a picture forms of a winged humanoid male sculpted into a strong muscular shape the perfect form, pointed ears like an elf, black straight hair that falls down his back like a midnight waterfall, eyes that shine like the stars a nice jaw line that suggests beauty and power. His wings a colorful rainbow of magic. Everything is in symmetry.

  "Who am I kidding? I don't have enough mana for this perfect specimen of a man. I need to finish my quests. I'm keeping this though for eye candy and to talk. Talking to mushrooms they just don't make good talking companions. Perhaps, I can hope upon a star that my wish comes true and I'll get company.”

  Admiring the picture she dreams of when she had a body. “Ugg, I'm feeling awful. Back to work.Maybe one day I'll be blessed. It's too lonely here.”

  ******

  A new soul arrives into the system. The system looks it over. It's perfect. It still has a sense of self. Not enough to know who it is but enough to remember some knowledge and to equate itself as male and comes from the same planet as the Dungeon. So the system takes the body design from the newest dungeon. Places the genetic info into an egg and stuffs the soul inside and tweaks it to be compatible. It now waits until she completes the Quest to open up to the outside to receive her reward, otherwise the new egg becomes a new gem and a new dungeon.

  ******

  It has almost been a month and Our Adventurers are still searching.

  "Hey, Jacob?” Salena asks, ”You have a sweetheart at home?”

  “ No”, he answers,” Why do you ask?”

  Blushing Salena goes on, “I'd like to be yours and you mine. I like you a lot and would like to try for a relationship. We've been working well together and I'd like to get to know you better.” She scrambles over her words. Then looks around and sees something shining in the distance. Then hurriedly runs to it as Jacob becomes bewildered. She picks it up and holds it to the light.

  “I think I found something guys.” She yells examining the piece of a rainbow colored gem. “ The dungeon gem has to be close. Spread out. I only found this one piece. Either we'll find an opening or we'll find an indent where it impacted and we will have to wait to see if it emerges. Make a circular search pattern using my impact gem fragment point.” Salena gathers the rocks around her to make a focal point in the search pattern.

  Higher up and to the right Miles finds another fragment. “ Here I found another. Hopefully, it didn't impact too hard and broke apart.” Miles says excitedly.
