Doyle mentally shrugs and thinks [show dungeon type options]. This is enough for the system and a gigantic screen with a scrollbar appears. They both look it over, but 99 percent of the options are grayed out. Options like Dragon Bone Mountain and Sun Orbital. All of them have various requirements which lock them off. Such things as already havi...

Up in the tree Rosha pulls a piercing arrow from her quiver and draws the bow back. Ready she waits for the right shot and Jason plans to give it to her. He approaches the mossram and punches over and over to keep the monster focused on him. This might not do much damage but the monster doesn’t like it either.
It catches Jas...

Jason holds up his hand with three fingers out, two, one. On both sides of the mossram the group stabs their weapons into it and run towards its back. Jason is able to open up a couple of shallow slashes down its side. Effective but Rosha is better. Her long staff blade is able to sink into the monster and cause a long-lasting...

Zela flies behind Doyle. There is a stone statue replica of her on a marble pedestal. She lands on the pedestal and continues, ‘This wasn’t here a moment ago. In fact, it did not exist at all. While I am not a dungeon core myself by being a companion to Flisle, I can tap into some of the abilities, including this most iconic of traits. Dunge...

The day dawned bright and early with a surprise for the party as they are woken by a commotion. The tribe’s scouts had spotted a mossram which despite the name had nothing to do with rams. Rather it was a giant mound of moss that would ram things. But yeah, it had crawled into a nearby pound and the tribe wanted to know if they wo...

Night drags by as Jason worries over Lilly. For the first half nothing seems to change, but as midnight passes a puff of black smoke rolls off of her and she settles down into a fitful sleep. By morning, only the most immaterial of black wisps still come off of her. To Jason she seems to sleep much more peacefully.
Breakfast i...

As Doyle is about to lose consciousness one last thought passes through his mind, “why does this hurt when being atomized didn’t?”
An indeterminate amount of time later Doyle comes to. All he can see is darkness and when he goes to stretch, he can’t feel his legs or arms. This of course freaks him out and he would have flailed abou...

It is only a couple hours past noon but both Rosha and Jason decide they need to set up camp. With much pain Lily seems to be in neither of them want to stress her anymore. Courtney wanted to move somewhere without a corpse in it. Not that she bothers to mention this as it is clear they’d have overruled her. In the end she rationa...

Morning dawns and Rosha wakes Jason and Courtney up for breakfast. She isn’t the best at cooking but was able to throw together some soup. Easy enough with what they had left over from last night’s meat plus beans and a couple herbs that were around their campsite. The mint wasn’t the best choice but it woke everyone up the re...

Doyle just stands there for a moment after the dungeon core, Flisle, finishes his rant. He rubs the back of his neck, “So you’re asking if I want to become a dungeon? That actually sounds interesting enough and I never went out much anyway. Sure, I can go along with your plan. Admittedly, I should think it over more. This is a big choice aft...

Dinner has finished and the group discuss the watch schedule. Jason volunteers for the mid-shift as the interrupted sleep won’t negatively affect him. The other two are fine with that but have a problem with their own shifts. Mostly because neither have much of a preference as long as they don’t need to do the mid-shift. In the ...

As luck would have it there were no other guests at the inn so our group was able to relax overnight. Rosha and Courtney decided to just sleep through the night while Jason had other plans. Cultivation was cultivation, whether it was in game or out of game so he had decided to split the night up. For the first hour and a half he cul...

Doyle falls and falls and falls. Above, he can hear the passage grinding shut behind him. After what feels like hours but was probably minutes, a light becomes visible beneath him. This dot grows larger and within moments he is through. It is now visible to him that what he was on before was another much larger floating island. Off in the misty ...

The main roads were safe this close to towns. Not that there weren’t bandits and beasts. Rather, they focused on the larger caravans and to attack small groups would alert their real prey. This made for an uneventful start to the trip and provided Jason enough time to check his wealth and companion pages.

Doyle and the Dwarf called Mud both stand there for a few moments. Then Mud slaps Doyle on the shoulder and laughs. “Congratulations! You didn’t die a single time there.

Early next morning Jason, Rosha, and Courtney meet up at the Adventurers Guild. The building is crowded and they almost despair at the lines. Even though there is a desk set aside for non-quest related help the wait still takes what seems like forever. Once the team gets to the desk even more troubles pop up. It was simple to add Co...

Doyle Huxley wakes up to screaming. The confusing part for him is that one scream sounds like him, but he can’t feel himself screaming. Then he wishes it had stayed that way. His senses return to him and the pain of a throat torn up by what must have been hours of terror filled screams bashes into his mind. This puts him under once again.

Rosha tilts her head, “are they real kitsune? I thought most of the magical sentient creatures like that are more one off type things. Like how there are dragons. They aren’t a race so much as there being a dragon connected to a specific volcano with each having its own unique thing going on. Sure there are enough partial dragon...

With a slight blush from that small kerfuffle Rosha gestures for Jason to join them. He sits down and they start...

Before I knew it I was 5 chapters into it. Going to start releasing chapters for it on Fridays to all patrons and once I have a nice backlog there will probably be a tier for it specifically or some such. In this case a 'nice' backlog can be taken to mean around 21 chapters. The plan is to flood RoyalRoad and ScribbleHub with releases for a week...

With a sigh, he sets an alarm to tell him when he has half an hour irl left then sets up a trip to one of the secondary parks. With a beep tha...

Time passes as Jason surfs the web. The benefits of reaching level ten in NeoRealm are sort of ridiculous. If from a nation’s standpoint reaching a certain age was adulthood, then level ten was NeoRealm’s version of it. Which with how the internet works now was basically reaching the age of majority on the web as well. Jason can...
