《D.W》chapter 3: A new layout on life
Advertisement
from the upgrades gained from spending the 450 DP were enormous upgrades to the single spike trap at the entrance. but at the total amount and the DP we have here it wouldn't hurt to buy trap knowledge so i ask Megan to do the upgrade, after a while the message appears to me.
trap knowledge,
this is the upgrade for the variety of traps the dungeon can deploy
gained from upgrading to level 1: illusion doorway, arrow wall and rumbling ground,
from this, i gain an addition to the idea of how I want to set the dungeon out like.
after a hour of thinking I turn towards Megan and send to Megan a mental image of what i want the dungeon to look like with some images to tell what room type is where like having 2 large rooms that at the width of the closest city which is roughtly around 2 miles in width.
Another additions to the map are Trap placements as well as the location of secret rooms that are sealed off from the main dungeon by illusion gates.
After sending this I will have to wait for Megan to start building it.
* * *
After a few hours of waiting from not disturbing Megan from her natural purpose to expand and consume life, her voice enters my head again saying.
-Ryan, the building is complete As well as I kept the entrance closed-
The sound rings in my ear before calming down, so I reply with
" could you please stop using telepathy, since I don,t have the spell telepathy it hurts to hear"
She instantly replys with an apology which I accept kindly and I thank her for keeping herself closed since we need to spawn till we are ready
For this reason I ask Megan give me some generic mana gems, a lot of gold as well as other metals with the destination being the newly formed Nexus.

Once at the Nexus i take a while to look around, the nexus looks like a natural sphereical cavern with a large piller of a glowing rock in middle seeming to keep the cabern up, the walls of the cavern are riddleled with stone stairway's with them leading to holes dug into the walls. When seeing this i think of the homes of past nomads where me and my pairents ocupated during some nights, but we i quckly remove the thoght from my mind so with the materials in my backpack I go to find the golems.
I spot a large crowd of people who are huddling in the fetal position around the earth pillar in the centre of the nexus.without a doubt these people are the golems.all of them took a human appearance, all of them have different faces and traits e.g white skin, brown hair Etc.
After I noticed the golems, they started to stur by shaking lightly before getting up and walking to me.
This is the part that I was dreading.
For the golems they gain a personality from m3gan but like her they need some general assistance to operate so now I have to assign their jobs in the nexus.
* * *
After a few hours of job assignment over I walk back to the boss room where I rest for a while.
Here is a image of the current dungeon layout.
the dungeon layout, level 1
a key for it is below.
tree's = forest rooms
stone pointing diagonally = crag room.
snowflake = tundra room.
pickaxe = mine.
B = boss room.
N = nexus.
purple dot= a trap.
purple line= trap line.
blue line= illusion gate.
brown box = treasure (all dungeons can spawn dungeon chests).
cream line = the border of the special rooms
black lump with grey filling = wolf den
pink line = entrance/ steps.
blacked out parts= empty space
plus just for reference the room with the campfire is roughly 50 meters wide by 20 meters long on the map.
thank you for reading

Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?

Cry of the Mer Extras
A collection of Cry of the Mer shorts and extras. This will mostly be a series of scenes from Luna's point of view. Things from her past and scenes that have already happened, but from the different perspectives. It may also include the same for other characters such as a look into the pasts of Katie and Riley as well. Basically all the world building stuff there isnt time for in the main plot. This is mostly what I'll be writing on my phone on my breaks at work to keep readers having some content as I cannot work on Heart of a Mer while there. Most of you know the situation already, so this is my compromise for less main content. I do take requests if there's something specific you want to see.
