The Dream Saga Chapter 25
Advertisement
Everyone was in a rush inside the palace, some were happy while some were sad, while some were worried because everyone's future depended on me. But I was the only one who was not worried even a little bit maybe because it was my life so I didn't care about it much.
Thinking about all this made my eyes heavy, Rose was also out somewhere doing some stuff, she was worried too in the morning after seeing me. I had so many people who wanted me to live, thinking about all this was so stressful that I fell asleep thinking about it.
Huh...! What? A dream? Why?
Where am? What's happening? Wait, This is the leviathan palace!!!
I was again in a dream, it was not a regular dream, it was not the dream where I used to meet Ecirel, it was a "déjà Vu."
"Why is this place is so silent? All these rooms are locked and empty huh!!!
"What was that sound?" I was wandering around the palace which was silent and empty, there was not a single bird or civilian on the streets, in between the utter silence I heard some voices.
I rushed towards the steps to find the source of the sound, I was reaching closer and the voices that I was hearing started to change into a particular tone of sorrow.
"what the hell! What are these? What happened here?"
As I reached the location of the source I saw something which was downright horrifying, my pupils expanded into shock, I felt like the floor had slipped beneath my feet. My knees were shaking as they were castle of cards.
As soon as I reached that place, the sight I saw was terrifying, I could not understand what happened there and then a severed head touched my leg...

My mind was already in chaos...
I turned it over with my foot so that I could see the face. And as I saw its face, I cried out ...
That was Lee's head...
As I saw Lee's severed head, I fell to my knees and tears broke out of my eyes. All this was just happening that then the shroud from which the corpses were covered flew away and came on my face, it was stained with the blood, I removed it slowly with my hands and my eyes fell on the faces of the dead bodies from which these shrouds had flown, those bodies were of Skyler and Sabir.
Skyler's body was massacred pretty badly. The pale white beautiful skin of her appeared blue to me it looked like she was beaten to death whoever killed her didn't even leave her face, on the other hand, Sabir body was flayed and maggots were already inside it I couldn't recognize him first but when I saw his ring I knew it was Sabir.
Watching the dead bodies of my loved ones made me lose my mind, I screamed and cried out in so much pain but nobody was there to tell me it was okay.
What scared me was not Lee's or Skyler's dead bodies. I was scared because this was the future that depended on me. Everyone knew they'll die if I die but still they were worried about me.
I was not understanding anything at the moment everywhere I looked, I saw their faces which were cursing me for their death, I heard vile laughs that were horrifying me to the bone.
"KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! BANG!"
I woke up because of the hard bangs on the door, Somebody was knocking on my door, but after knocking for a while, they tried to barge into my room. It was Skyler

"Hey! Bitch, you should open the door when I knock!" She yelled in anger.
I was panting heavily "wh- who is there??! Who's there!" I was still half asleep when I stuttered in fright.
"It's me, Skyler! Kai! Kai! Are you okay I'm here it's me Skyler what happened? Did you have a nightmare?" Skyler who being rowdy a second ago after watching Kai scared, got worried and soft instantly.
"Skyl-Skyler! Skyler!" I cried out with tears in my eyes I grabbed her by her waist and began to cry in her lap.

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
