《Twisted Nerves》Level 10: Pandora (+Lia's image and theme song)
Advertisement
'Since I've killed a mob with 14 levels more than me, I can choose a class. I doubt anything will happen to me if I refuse, maybe my familiarity with Thyw's Lord and its habitants will drop, but it's nothing I care about. Otherwise if I choose this class, I could advance sooner with my objectives but I'll have to look up all those names he mentioned before, since Pandora is a thing, maybe all the other are too. Well, I can always create a new character or stop playing entirely.'
Lia looked Rastin in the eyes and answered
"I accept."

As Lia sent away the notifications, Rastin searched for something in his pockets, then when he found it, he took it out and handed it to her. It was a black ring with little purple strings that moved randomly on its surface.

"This also permits you to open all the doors with an eclipse engraved on it."
Rastin said as Lia put on the ring on her right middle finger. When she heard that, Lia looked back towards the little door and then again at Rastin, who nodded. The four of them walked up to the door and Lia had to temporarily put the ring on her index finger to insert it in the hole. It was a room just a little bigger than a closet, with nothing inside but a black box on a pedestal. Lia looked at Rastin skeptically
"Is it that box?"
"It was a jar originally. No my dear, that is just a simple box containing Echidna's gift to you."
Lia stepped inside and lifted the box. She briefly observed it before opening it, making black smoke seep out. The smoke accumulated on the ground, then mini black lightenings made it jerk and morph until it assumed the form of a ghostly black dog, tall enough to reach her bosom with his nose while he sat. With a stoic expression it stared at Lia with his red eyes. It was a Shuck.
I know Pandora only got gift from the Gods, but it's my story lol. This is a Shuck, fyi. Anyway, I've made Lia and Abigail, but you get only Lia for now:
Spoiler :

Dungeon Instinct
The multiverse is a big place, and it is also constantly in flux. As such sometimes mistakes occur, impossibilities that should have never come into existence. An aspect of corruption born naturally of a mortal and a divine, a Void that is a singularity instead of a duality, a being that came to be before existence ever was, a forgotten that is not damned, the possibilities are infinite and limitless, and thus so are the possible mistakes in this grand multiverse. But are not mistakes more entertaining to watch? For Kelic the Blightborn, life was suffering. Born of a holy Templar dedicated to serving the Forgotten Guardian and a powerful abyssal demon queen that raped said Templar, Kelic’s first sight and sensation in Quellios and its realms was being baptized in the life-blood of his dying father. Tortured in the 1425th level of the abyss for ten years, Kelic was only set free of this constant nightmare of an existence by the unintended results of the Ascendant Angel’s rise to true divinity. His freedom from the abyss was not the paradise that the young Kelic thought however, as he was branded a BlightBorn, or a child of tragedy that brings only misfortune, by the people of Quellios. Abused by all he ever knew or met the boy found solace in only in the things of beauty and the act of reading, a skill he taught himself. His latent ability to comprehend and remember all of what he read and the sheer speed of his reading gained the attention of a prominent figure of Evrette Academy Island. Taken in by the famous mage Fredrick Dunhousen, Kelic lived in peace for the first time in his young life… that is until he was killed. Follow the tale of a newly born dungeon core in the world of Eserthet, that has only one single purpose. One single purpose it decided for itself... [{(Note, this story contains: torture, gore, violence, sexual content, and other mature stuff. read at your own risk.)}]

Palus Somni
It is the final days after the end of the world and you only have one month left before the last sanctuary erupts into chaos. There's a dead body hanging from a tree and cadaverous giants watch you sleep at night. The end is already here, you just don't know it yet. Now rated in the top 3% of all novels on Royal Road! Palus Somni (‘Marsh of Sleep’) is a worldbuilding webnovel about what happens when your God forsakes you. Inspired by gothic horror and mingled with British myth and folklore, join the Alucinari nuns as they struggle with day-to-day life after the world has ended. Every night when the sun sets the monstrous Gol, colossal beings with too many teeth, awaken and roam the marshlands. Only those with a faithful heart will be spared. Young acolyte Wille has never seen the walls fail, but when a fellow nun is murdered within their sanctum the very safety of the monastery is thrown into question. Did the Gol find a way to breach their defences, or is there a human traitor amongst them? The answer lies both far in the past and deep beneath the earth, through the maze of ancient catacombs. With a cast of over thirty different characters, watch as your friends and enemies spiral into inevitable madness at the hands of a callous and unforgiving world. Discover the secrets of Palus Somni through letters, diary entries and notes found scattered across the monastery. Uncover the mystery of the grotesque giants that stalk the night and bring your challenge to the Gods themselves. Each character has their own handmade pixel art, and every update includes a music recommendation for a dark atmospheric dungeon synth album that you can listen to while you read. Slice of life meets cosmic abomination: Palus Somni is a collection of intertwining stories, some chapters are stand-alone tales while others feed into the overarching narrative. It is an exploration into a community, and rather than focusing on any one character the story meanders through the convent, exposing the hopes and fears of its inhabitants. Story updates every full moon.
