《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 64
Advertisement
I opened the so-called terminal today. It was a weird sensation, I could feel mana being pulled out of my body by some outside force when I opened it up, only for all of it to be returned when I got rid of it.
I was right in that it was a method for communication between others of my kind, ‘dungeons’ supposedly. It also does things like facilitating trade, ideas mostly, but some goods are occasionally moved around.
I did talk to a couple people using the terminal. Most of them contacted me, asking me about some creature I had made, the only one I had access to the other day apparently. There was one that said that I had probably saved his life, apparently, I made a pretty big donation of mana to him in his time of need. I don’t remember this. He gave me a gift, a gift of knowledge specifically. He gave me information on making traps, he said it isn’t much, but it is much better than the basic one I would have gotten from the market.
I don’t see myself using it much, but we will see where things go.
I spent a good bit of time expanding my maze, making sure to keep the whole thematic I have going wherever I expand my maze. With the walls covered in many colourful mushrooms and the floor covered in a layer of water. It’s pretty, though I wish I could have some trees.
While I was working a woman came into my maze a started yelling out a name. Both the woman and the name were familiar to me, pleasant. I want to talk to her, but I have no way to speak. I thought to use the same method I am using to shape the walls to communicate, but it is slow and not fine enough to use to write. I tried using mushrooms to spell something out, this did catch the woman’s attention though I failed to spell anything out. I simply don’t have enough control to do it, which feels wrong to me, but there is nothing I can do about it.

After I caught her attention the woman seemed to cry for a while. She seemed almost relieved at my failed attempts to communicate. After a while she just stood up and left.
Anyway, I’m out of mana and there is nothing more to talk about, so Good Night Diary.

The Dungeon Traveler
I spent most of my life trying to get by with whatever happiness I could, that included alcohol, food, and porn.My death was unpleasant and humiliating. However, death is something we all need to go through. A bit like a proctology exam; necessary but never anything one wants to go through while it's happening.However, death was supposed to be the end of it. Either way, the pain, suffering, and failures were supposed to be over. I was supposed to wink out, or perhaps take a trip to a lovely afterlife!No, I ended up as a small stone, strapped to a table, while a pimple-faced teenager rubbed my facets and told me how 'lovely' I was. Last time I checked, birth wasn't supposed to be as embarrassing as death!Life as a dungeon core isn't all bad. I like watching lizard love triangles and snooping on militaristic dwarves; though there is that issue where I'm trying to free myself from the entanglements of the Gods....ok, yeah that last one is a bit of a problem. Completed and available on Amazon

The Legend of Ghost
This is a quick novella origin story to one of fan-favorite characters in the ZERO universe, Sam Dobbs, a.k.a. Slade Gardner, a.k.a. the Ghost. I wrote it for current ZERO series fans, after many insistent, fervent, teary-eyed demands. Still, I think it pretty much works as a stand-alone, so I'll post it here. (He gets the name Ghost later, not as part of this story...this is just the why he decided to do what he did, being slightly insane and all.) Lots of easter eggs for current fans. 15k words total, chapters will be approx. 2.5k each. Oh, and if you get turned off by crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials being crazy, hyperintelligent antisocials, this isn't the story for you. ;)

Terms and Conditions
The planet Earth –galactic name Driew—has always been an ordinary and peaceful planet with a small population of ape-beings ruling it. Conflicts do break out from time to time, but that is to be expected since most living planets die by either solar flares or some form of self-destruction. But, unfortunately for the Earth, a Mustela named Exflibberaguil was approaching this planet, and something destructive seemed to always follow him—though he would say it was just his destructively-hot looks. Marine Nick Lucifay is a female inhabitant of Earth, always too ready to run. When presented with an opportunity of adventure, her ape-brain figures that adventure is probably worth the consequence of death. And so, setting off to the nearest McDonalds, Marine Nick finds herself in the midst of an intergalactic struggle that involves a great quantity of bubbles. Chased by the most unlikely of enemies, Exflibberaguil must give up his secrets to save a world—and Marine—from running to their deaths.
