《The Obsidian Core》Non-Chapter : Considerations for the Long-Term
Advertisement
This is, obviously, not a chapter. The next one of those will be later the week this is posted. But, this is a rather important thing for anyone who likes the story.
I've mentioned it a few times when responding in the comments, but my biggest concern for this series is the long term. A Dungeon Core story is by its nature, prone to repetitive story beats. So, that's what I'm here for.
I may be the author, but lets not pretend that the readers don't matter when it comes to the direction a story goes. I also won't lie and say that I'll mindlessly obey the poll at the end of this. But I do want to get my readers opinions.
Option 1 : Stay a classic Dungeon Core story. Sybas keeps digging down and down, maybe makes some monster friends, but otherwise, is just a Dungeon. The focus becomes the unique floors and monsters, and the attempts by outsiders to get through. Stay classy!
Option 2 : Meet with the peoples! Have Sybas over time talk to people and make deals and whatever, start having the normal species take on a bigger role in the story, essentially.
Option 3 : A body for Sybas. I doubt this one will be popular, but here it is, just in case. Sybas gets a body in this option, and it probably winds up including option 2 as well.
Option 4 : The Kingdom Building option. Sybas becomes a ruler and establishes his own thing.
Option 5 : Something else. Come look down in the comments for my idea
Option 6 : I added this specifically for the people who were adamant about it. NO BODY!
So there you go. Now keep in mind, for the short to mid term, not much is gonna change. This is just to see where people would be most interested in the story eventually going.
DO NOT WORRY! THERE WILL BE NO HAREM NO MATTER WHAT THE CHOICE WINDS UP BEING!
Dear fuck, who traumatized you all...
