《Evolution For Dummies》The hunter becomes hunted
Advertisement
Once the Drake had left I began slowly sneaking towards the exit. Taking care to be as subtle as I could, which is hard when you are glowing blue. When I finally got to the exit of the den I looked around, no drake in sight, good. I sprinted as fast as my lupine body would allow in the direction of my den, no drakes there. After a short detour to hunt some sort of flaming bird, not a phoenix, that tasted a lot like fried chicken, I got to my den. Once there I looked over my stats and I found something new, in the evolutions menu, I had gained a feat.
Evolution Menu
Age

Feats
Escape a Drake's Den unscathed

Well, that's new, I got a feat for escaping the Drake's den, no new evolution, unfortunately. It does seem that I may need more than 1 feat to achieve another evolution. I was beginning to wind down when I noticed something on my other menus

Effects:
Hunted by The Virsilva Drake
∞
That… could be bad, infinite duration too. When I thought about it a menu came up informing me of what it did.
You are hunted by the Virsilva Drake: If the Virsilva Drake ever sees you it will instinctively know that you have been in its den
The only way to remove this effect is by getting approval from the Virsilva drake or becoming unrecognizable in physical form, mana signature, and soul.
Ok yeah, that's pretty bad. The first condition is not happening and the second one seems to be achievable by evolving into something completely new, although on the plus side I got a menu for explaining what things do instead of just getting the knowledge inexplicably entered into my brain. That's nice.

For now, though I think I’ll just stick to avoiding the drake at all costs, it can't track me unless it knows my smell and it can't associate my smell with a thief until it sees me. Sooo… we are gonna be hiding for a while, or according to this effect, forever. Once I woke up and hunted, MOAR CHICKENS, I decided to get some serious work done on attempting to figure out what I could do to evolve. I had a couple of Ideas on feats, but they all seemed rather difficult, so it seemed I was stuck waiting to get older to gain an evolution. Argh, waiting I hate it, but it seems that's what I’m stuck with. It was 3 weeks later when something interesting finally happened, I got a message?
You have received a message:
That blue orb in the drake's den, I need you to take that. I won’t put a time limit on this but if you completely ignore this mission I might. If you succeed in taking the orb I will give you a patron bonus for your next big evolution.
From Dae’reno
Uhh, I was just talking about how I wanted to avoid the Drake and its den. Why world why?!?

Arnar the Dungeon
Arnar is a dungeon core. Everybody knows dungeons are evil, man-eating entities hell-bent on killing and absorbing whatever wanders inside their depths. The problem is no one ever told him that. Well, the truth is no one ever told him anything and he refused powers-that-be when they tried to make him into the proper dungeon. That should teach them not resurrect people into dungeon cores. Now it is too late. He has a perfect plan to become the best dungeon on the continent and nothing will stand in his way. Especially something called common sense. Disclaimer of sorts: I am non-native English writer that used to write mostly for himself. After my last computer decided to die on me taking all my works with it I lost the desire to write for quite a long time. This is my attempt to go find motivation to write again as this was my favourite hobby. The idea is to be held accountable. As for being non-native, I don't believe that should be a major issue as I feel my proficiency in English to be sufficient enough to not be too much of the distraction. That said, be forewarned that the rules governing punctuation are beyond my grasp. All I can do is try not to completely suck at that. As mentioned this is an attempt to motivate me to write again so any message, encouragement or constructive criticism will go long way. The cover was created with the help of http://fantasynamegenerators.com/emblem-creator.php I hope you will enjoy my story.
