Chapter 5

  It's finally finished, I broke through to the outside. I had to metaphorically eat my way to the surface. Nothing is very stable at the moment and I'm still figuring it out but I can see light. I needed to get there as fast as possible. My mushrooms had started to wither. I can see why I needed to get to the surface there is so much more mana.

  “Humm let's distribute those points real fast. Yeah I must have gotten close to all these plants and animals while I was carving my way to the surface. Let's see I have trumpet vine root , blackberry bramble seeds, clover, grass. Insects yuck think they're icky, ants, centipedes, spiders, beetles of all kinds, pill bugs, millipedes, rather have the tree roots, acorns, and plants. such a long list. Perhaps I could use this to camouflage my entrance. Yeah, I love that idea. Let's put a vine right here and make it grow around a11/nice brick entrance then place a pitfall trap right there to protect me from things. A little sprinkle of will and mana and viola, a trumpet vine and morning glory camouflage and pitfall. PRETTY oh if only I had a Myrtle.” She commentates.

  “So glad I'm actually getting all my mana points now. Now back to my room to finish that. Let's move our egg to this corner away from my mushrooms in its own little nest of grass.”

  As soon as she sets the egg in its place among the grass it hatches. Out pops the fairy of her dreams. And the shell gets absorbed.

  “Where am I? Whaaaat am I?” The fairy man says in a low soothing tone that feels like velvet across whatever constitutes as ears on her.

  A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

  “ Hello. Testing Testing can you hear me?” Ceselee, a bit stunned and elated, asks. " I'm so happy right now."

  “ OUCH!” He screams and waves his hands down, ”Calm it down a bit, you're really loud to this noggin. By the way, where are you?“

  “Oh, Sorry Is this better," toning it down, ”I'm the gem sitting next to you. My name is Ceselee and you're my dungeon fairy and we're in my dungeon not that it's much right now.” Ceselee apologized.

  “So I'm the dungeon fairy, guess that's not a bad gig for the afterlife.” The fairy comments.

  “I know. I can't remember much but I do remember that I died, got stuffed in this gem and have been very lonely for what feels like forever. I am so happy that I have a companion now. You just don't understand how much better it is to have someone to talk to and bounce ideas off of. I hope you can be my best friend in this. ” Ceselee whispers. “So what do you want to call yourself? I made up a name because I couldn't remember my old one.”

  "My name is Drake. I never forgot my name to which I am thankful.” Drake said casually.

  Congratulations on the Hatching of your Dungeon fairy.

  “ What was that?” Drake asked.

  "Oh that's just the system, it just seems to pop in and speak whenever I accomplish something.” Caselee remarked. “ Do you have a status screen?”

  "Yes, here I think I can tweak the panel to show you.” Drake informed.

  "It's just like a MMORPG,” Drake reminisced. "I've also got a few quests for collecting resources outside the Dungeon to pass to you, to help make the dungeon better by building it to specs, and one to explore the area around us for dangers. Have you been having problems.”

  "No, It's been relatively quiet, but I think that's because up until a few hours ago I've been isolated. I did just open us up to the outside. Would you happen to have knowledge downloaded into that gorgeous brain of yours about the rules of this world? I'm very clueless, " sighing she continued,” I've been winging it since I got here.” Ceselee complained.

  At that moment a snuffling could be heard at the entrance. They both turned to the sound waiting to see what would happen.Then a squeal and a crash as if something had fallen into the pittrap she had set up.

  “ At least I was smart to put a trap at the entrance. It will keep big animals at bay.” Ceselee patted herself mentally on her back.

  Congratulations on your 1st kill a hog

  "I'm speculating on this but I think the number one rule is reputation. Once we get players or adventurers since this isn't a game to our dungeon we want to keep it fair. No unnecessary deaths, No rampaging monster hoards, Just clear clean fun with challenges." Drake explained.

  "So, let's get started." Ceselee excitement overflowed.

  ******

  "I FOUND IT THE ENTRANCE ITS HERE." Screamed Steven.

  "Time send off our runner, to pitch tents and begin building a town." Salena clapped her hands together.
