《Spilled Ink》We Are
Advertisement
Yes, we are.
Earth's cold-blooded killers.
Deny it all you want; oh, but we are.
We all are.
And a liar I shall not be;
I shall cleanse not my bloody hands
just to please thee.
A killer, that's me.
No, I didn't just try—
I did the deed successfully.
Killers, you and me.
I killed happiness in their twinkling eyes,
even one residing within me.
I hated glee for some time,
so I killed hope, not once nor twice.
Some yours, the rest mine.
Regret I did, and did not most of the time.
Killers, yes we are.
Lie all you want; denial is quite fine.
But know this:
the blood of a bleeding wound you cannot hide.
Crimes acknowledge crimes.
Oh, but we are.
We all are.

Core and Guide
A story about the awakening, and subsequent life, of an ordinary Dungeon Core. Along with a Guide, their only goal is to survive long enough to become the greatest Dungeon. How can an ordinary Core accomplish this when facing off against the world's ‘chosen’? Those who rush to his home for riches, glory, and everything in between. This Core knows one thing, though. Not every Two-legged freak that walks into their Dungeon can be a Hero. Authors Note - This will be my first attempt at writing, and any criticism is welcome. If you see any grammatical mistakes please let me know. I hope you have as much fun reading this as I will writing it.

Gray. His hair, his clothes, his ability, his identity. To Kezner, gray represented his whole life, but there was just one thing about it he found funny.
