《The Dungeon's Champion》It can only get better...
Advertisement
"It can only get better" I kept reminding myself as my day continued to plunge into the annals of my personal worst days ever. It was the poison-cherry on the cake, which was my worst week ever; and the only comfort I could find in all this, was my conviction that it couldn't get any worse.
Boy was I wrong!
I looked out the front door of my apartment, or rather, what used to be my apartment, (and for that matter, what used to be my front door) only to find that I was looking over the edge of a tower which had erupted out of the ground underneath me.
Not much was left of the building, and a few blocks of my neighborhood were reduced to piles of wreckage surrounding the tower. While I was of course worried for my neighbors, most of which I didn't actually know, my primary concern at the moment was for myself, as I was quite high up, and there was no pathway down, and, I think it bears repeating, there was a giant tower under me.
The tower was square, tiered, with a large block at the base, and each tier on top of the base block became successively smaller, until the last block, on which I was stranded, which was approximately the size of, well, my old apartment.
The moment I stepped out of my former front door, onto the ledge of the tower, a sudden stiff breeze blew past me, and my one time "home sweet home" was blown off the side of the tower to join with the wreckage below. To be honest, it was no great loss as I was already overdue for an eviction. I imagined my landlord's face when he would see the state of his apartment building and I couldn't help hoping that he was under-insured. He wasn't a very nice man.

Whether my apartment getting blown away was coincidence or fate I don't know, but I now could see a wooden trap door which previously had been hidden under my cheap vinyl-covered floorboards only a moment before.
I now had two options, I could wait for a helicopter rescue to arrive or I could go try going through the tower. As waiting was not really my thing, I decided to open the door and try to find a way out of this tower. And hey, my day couldn’t get any worse now anyway.
