You have earned the achievement ‘Pathifist’: You cleared an entire floor without killing a single mob. (WORLD FIRST)
All mobs will have less agro toward you. Unique interaction can now be had with all mobs.
Level 1- presenting food for a mob to have a chance to pacify it. This will carry over levels and instances.
Level 2- grooming the mob might yield unique drops.
Level 3- healing a hurt mob has a chance to become a ‘defender’. Unlike pets, ‘defenders’ are still wild and will still attack hostile players at their own discretion. They will also remain in the instance and level tamed. Like pets, they will defend you against other mobs. This can lead to unique interactions with higher ranking mobs.
Depending on your actions the final level will become available.
Level 4- ??? completing this level will grant a ‘1 time’ summon. Depending on the mob, progress will either reset to Level 1 or Level 3.
As well as the pathifist achievement, which Terrance thought was a humorless misspelling of pacifist, he also got the standard second-floor achievements. With nothing better to do than stand around another ten minutes reading logs, he began walking around the gate. What caught his attention first was the abandoned cars. He remembered reading these were harvest points and began looking around them. Most were empty, but one had a ‘wrench’ inside its trunk, which was labeled as a mob healing item in his interface.
With the cars looked at and nothing really to lose, Terrance made his way to the city. On the road with high grass on either side, he remembers hearing that velocity raptors on occasion ambush at this point, being a single target he should be a prime target. About halfway to the city, however, something unexpected happened. What best described as a metal floating bird suddenly appeared in front of him.

“ Citizen card detected, request maintenance.”
Terrance just stood there a moment completely baffled by the robot voice. After regaining his whit he nods.
“ Um, sure.”
The Archeao-repairers settles down and some prompts appear on his hud. Most of them were cleaning requests, but one had bolts on it. Thinking for a moment he took out the wrench he got earlier and worked on the bolt till it gently popped off. Unfortunately, the wrench broke and became labeled as scrap metal. Unlike gears and pipes, this revealed a more modern panel of ports, wires, and plugs. Off the bat, Terrance could see something wrong, one of the plugs had fallen out of its port. Reading the label on the plug, he quickly found the proper port for it and pushed it in. Just to be sure he tested the other ports and found two more loose. He made sure they were secure before lowering the lid, which retightened on its own. Seeing the other prompts, he took a cheap bandage and wiped the dust and grime off the metal bird the best he could. With it as clean as he could get it Terrance backed away.
“ All done.”
The Archeao-repairers took a moment to process what happened and lifted off to face him again.
“ Maintenance satisfactory. Thank you, citizen.”
It then lifted off and vanished from his sight.
You have gained 300 experience for your first interaction with this mob type.
You have gained the skill ‘mechanics’.
For cleaning the mob, you have earned 25 experience and a bottled wax cleaner token. (claimed automatically after returning to town)
Progress till passive buff ??? is applied 3/5000.
For doing poor but acceptable maintenance on the mob’s repair system. You have earned 40 experience and a ‘user manual’.

The individual mob’s healing ability has increased by 14% and can now heal negative effects. It has become an elite. This elite mob will only appear when you are in the instance and will actively seek you out once you enter the instance. (Warning, other players can attack this mob. If it dies all progress with it is lost) Only 1 elite mob can exist due to the ‘mechanic’ effect.
After reading the notice log, Terrance looked at the user manual.
“Huh, cool.”

8 158The Descarrian Abyss: Level One
[2/6/20 : Major rewrites and restrucuring for Chapters 1-4]Framed for the murder of his landlady, sixteen year old Arahn Keys has been sentenced to death. A last minute reprieve comes in the form of the slightly mad cartographer Calan’dal, who hires him and four other death row inmates as bodyguards for his dangerous expedition into the bowls of a labyrinthine dungeon known as the Descarrian Abyss. Should they succeed in helping the deranged elf reach his goal, the legendary Heart of the Abyss, Arahn and his fellow criminals will be free to go. Alongside his new elven master Arahn is joined by Morvar: a half-troll brute, Cathran: a young herbalist’s apprentice who professes her innocence, and Evan and Lem: a pair of thieving goblin twins. Together they descend into the Abyss, knowing they will have to work together or else perish in the bowels of the dark labyrinth, becoming victims of the deadly traps and ferocious creature’s legend to reside within. [This is an early draft. Looking for feedback on characters/story as I work on my ideas.]

8 173The Choice
‘Should we be loyal to an unjust ruler?’ This is the dilemma before the citizens of Magadha . They ask themselves - ‘Is it safe to be a fence sitter?’ ‘Is it prudent to emigrate?’ ‘Is it time to rise in revolt?’ No citizen is immune, each must make a choice! Disclaimer: All events, people and some places in this novel are fictitious. Though the novel is set in 5th Century AD , India, the life presented is an amalgamation of different eras and imagination. Infact , much of the understanding of the society at that point of time has been gained from Kautilya’s Arthashastra which was first written seven centuries earlier.
