Book 3 - Chapter 18 - Unfortunate Ending




Dear Readers,
It is sudden and unfortunate that I need to write this message to you. From Chapter 18 onwards I will no longer be posting this story on Royal Road. There are a number of reasons for how this has come about, some deeply personal that have been developing over time, but one in particular that has pushed me to act ahead of when I originally had planned.
As I have some particular goals for this tale and series in the next few years, it has become clear that I need to do this. Unfortunately this story has been re-published without my consent or knowledge (until now) on another site, right up to the current chapter. As I find this unacceptable and an issue in regards to the future options for the story, I feel that I need to act.
I will continue to release the 1st draft of this story regularly on Patreon for a token fee.
For those that wish to join me and continue reading as it is written, thank you in advance!
For those that are unable to continue with the story and have been reading and following this tale, thank you so much for your support, thoughts and kind words. It has been wonderful knowing that there are readers who have been following this tale, week to week and I feel blessed that I have had this experience. I hope that at some point in the future a published hardcopy or ebook finds its way into your hands and you are able to enjoy the tale once again.
At a later point, I might republish an edited copy of book 1 on Royal Road. But, for now I will leave the first 5-10 chapters as a stub with this message that the story will continue on Patreon.
Thank you, dear reader, it has been a blast!
Kind Regards,
JMMatheis
(P.S. Sorry about that chapter title, but the site that has been scraping my work will pick up this 'chapter' too.)




NOTE: If you are reading this story and it is not hosted on www.royalroad.com or www.scribblehub.com it is an illegal copy!

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.

Will Mia accomplished her life quest or will she lived her life haunted by the Guardian of the Quest? I edit, re-edit, and re-edit and I gave up. Oh, well. I'll see where this story goes and decides later whether I should get a proofreader. Do excuse my grammars, English is my third language and I left school some times ago. I had long forgot about most of the things I learned in classroom.

Transmigrating With a 4D Chaperone
JJ Dion Blaze was a failure in life in every sense of the word. She had not much to her name. Now that her parents kicked her out of the house, she had to become an adult. Well, that didn't happen as she died the very night she moved out into her new dwelling. After her death, she was greeted by a fellow who claimed himself to be Magellan, or M for short. He explained what was going to happen to her now that she died. She would be able to live out her life in a fantasy world that she was always so passionate about. Instead of having to live in the dreadful 37th century. However, as luck would have it, the only thing that M and JJ could agree on was to hurl insults at each other at every turn. It was not exactly the life that she had wanted, but it was way better than being stuck on Earth. That was almost certain.
