The party sat in the room, the open chest a remind of the fight against the murder golem, not that they needed a reminder, rubble and cracked floor tiles serving as a reminder of the fight.
"Bonifacius: I was not aware thou could defeat a murder golem outside of scripted events."
Bonifacius let out a sigh
"JohnWillStab: Yeah, you'd think the ceiling falling on it would be considered physical damage."
"XxFoxlyxX: We shouldn't be complaining, this was a borderline death sentence."
♕ sat there waiting for the party to move further down the dungeon, her plan was still the same, get to the ‘Wall of Bones’, since it always glitches out and trapping the players as a result, she would be able to force the party to work for her in return for letting them out!
"XxFoxlyxX: How did you know what to do, though?"
"JohnWillStab: I dunno, once I saw it could break the environment I just... knew that's part of a possible solution."
"Bonifacius: Fascinating... in any case, thou mush have gotten lots of experience from that fight!"
"JohnWillStab: You'd think so, but my XP bar was almost full for most of the dungeon..."
"XxFoxlyxX: You can't level up inside of a dungeon, fam, wait until we leave and you'll get like 3 levels or something."
"JohnWillStab: 3 levels!?"
"Bonifacius: Tis a difficult dungeon, thou will surely receive one level per boss, and perhaps one more for the other monsters if thy experience bar was far enough when we entered."
"Bonifacius: Are thou alright, crown? Thou hast not been participating in the conversation."
"♕: I was just looking at some videos in the background while you guys were talking..."
"Bonifacius: Ah! Do not hesitate to join our conversation, you are a party member after all!"
"♕: I'll pass."
"XxFoxlyxX: Come one Bony, not everyone wants to be in the spotlight."
"Bonifacius: What spotlight?"
"JohnWillStab: I guess foxly's saying crown is an introvert."
"I don't know about you fu#!ing shut-ins but I don't have trouble talking to people, but there is no point in me getting attached to prey..." ♕ thought doing her best not to let any hostility get carried over to the chat.

"♕: I'm just not very talkative."
"Bonifacius: Oh I see, I do apologise if I was too pushy!"
"♕: Nah, don't worry about it, let's keep moving :D"
"Bonifacius: If everyone is in agreement then we can proceed!"
"JohnWillStab: Sure, I'm ready anytime."
XxFoxlyxX looked over to his stamina bar seeing that is was only half full.
"XxFoxlyxX: Sure, let's go."
The group left the room where they previously fought the murder golem, they entered the long hallway decorated in gems which stuck out from the walls like growths, pitfalls into a dark abyss littered their path along with colourful rays of light which came from behind the crystals.
"Bonifacius: Ahead of us is the Quarry Master!"
"JohnWillStab: Do we need the cat?"
"XxFoxlyxX: Cat?"
"JohnWillStab: My pet cat, it's an undead which can track down undead fish."
"XxFoxlyxX: O_O"
"Bonifacius: I don't see a need for it..."
"♕: It'll just get in the way..."
"JohnWillStab: Guess you're right... don't want arachnophobia getting injured."
"XxFoxlyxX: ..."
"♕: You called your cat arachnophobia?"
"JohnWillStab: I fought a lot of spiders to get the pet... I thought the name fit."
"XxFoxlyxX: Ah yes like a PTSD war vet who decided to call his dog "Look out - they're in the trees!""
"JohnWillStab: ..."
"♕: lamo"
"Bonifacius: Tis not funny, foxly..."
"XxFoxlyxX: I found it funny."
"♕: It was kinda funny."
"JohnWillStab: No comment."
"Bonifacius: Maybe tis I who has the wrong sense of humor..."
"XxFoxlyxX: I dunno, fam - just laugh at what's funny and don't force yourself to laugh at what's not funny. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"
"JohnWillStab: Foxly the guru of humour"
"These people are acting like total idiots... what the actual fuck are they talking about!?" ♕ thought.
The end of the tunnel drew closer as the group became witness to the large underground quarry, multiple layers of cut stone exposing a bed of twinkling golden gems in which sat a skeleton from the ribcage up, its skull had three eyes and its jaw had another smaller jaw inside.
Wooden bridges allowed passage across the large quarry where a massive iron door stood shut, awaiting the defeat of the quarry master.

Dozens of little rock monster rumbled around the place, their bodies cracked exposing various colours of light and gems, they walked like gorillas with their two frontal, rocky arms used to help them walk.
Short stubby tails dragged behind them as much as their jaws protruded slightly ahead of their faces, large rectangular teeth forming a cartoony smile.
"Bonifacius: This is not a difficult boss, however, we must defeat the minions first lest we get overrun."
"JohnWillStab: Alright!"
Bonifacius cast his roar and gained the attention of a pack of six rock monsters, they charged towards the group at which pointy XxFoxlyxX tossed a seal onto the ground before making it explode making the pack break into rubble.
"JohnWillStab: Woah! That was easy!"
"Bonifacius: Twas just the first wave."
"JohnWillStab: ?"
"XxFoxlyxX: Here they come!"
From across the bridge, from inside of a crack in the ground and from a wooden staircase leading down towards the skeleton the groups of monsters began to pour - two dozen at first.
"XxFoxlyxX: I'll prepare AOE for the next wave!"
"Bonifacius: Alright, JohnWillStab, this means we have to kill this wave ourselves!"
"JohnWillStab: Got it!"
Kick after kick after slash the monsters fell apart, Bonifacius cast the stomp, shattering six of the monsters and sending a few flying, the ones who fell down into the pits cracks but a few made their way back to the fight.
JohnWillStab kicked a monster suck that it flew into another monster pushing both into the quarry, their death only evident from the puff of dust and stone particles generated upon their death.
Realising this method was more effective, JohnWillStab tried to kick as many enemies into each other as possible.
After a while, the waves of enemies stopped, as the screen began to shake and the ground rumbled.
"Bonifacius: Here cometh the final wave!"
"XxFoxlyxX: The AOE is ready!"
The floor under XxFoxlyxX was covered in a dozen or so seals.
"Bonifacius: JohnWillStab, we must lead the enemies into the trap!"
"JohnWillStab: Alright!"
Bonifacius cast his roar ability gaining the attention of a vast majority of the hundred or so rock monster tumbling their way towards the party in a swarm, not unlike that of a horde of ants.
Unsure of what exactly to do to lead the monsters into the trap JohnWillStab just ran in the opposite direction hoping they'd follow him into the trap.
Meanwhile ♕ was keeping an eye on their health, Bonifacius was slowly but steadily losing health thanks to the army of rock monster battering him.
"XxFoxlyxX: Move in the AOE, fam!"
"Bonifacius: I cannot! The foes are blocking my path!"
"♕: Don't worry, lads, I've got the healing cover."
"JohnWillStab: Cast charge at one of the enemies following me!"
"Bonifacius: Huh, why did I not think of that!"
Bonifacius cast master charge at the enemy behind JohnWillStab causing him to shoot through the army of monsters, making a good few fly out and die of fall-damage, appearing next to JohnWillStab who was almost in XxFoxlyxX's trap.
The moment they pass the blast radius XxFoxlyxX cast the explosion spell causing the seals to release a powerful blast of flames shattering all of the monsters and damaging JohnWillStab and Bonifacius slightly.
"XxFoxlyxX: S#!t, I cast the spell too early, are you guys alright?!"
"JohnWillStab: I'm good, don't worry."
"Bonifacius: Tias but a scratch!"
"♕: lol"
"Bonifacius: ?"
"♕: A scratch? Your arm's off!"
"Bonifacius: I don't understand."
XxFoxlyxX shakes his head disapprovingly at Bonifacius.
"Bonifacius: What's wrong?!"
"JohnWillStab: I dunno."
"♕: ..."
"♕: ...My disappointment is immeasurable."
"XxFoxlyxX: Is your day ruined?"
"♕: Aaaa!"
"XxFoxlyxX: Aaaa!"
"Bonifacius: ...my confusion aside, may we proceed to the boss?"
"JohnWillStab: Sure"
"XxFoxlyxX: I guess. Foxly looked at his stamina bar, in theory, it should be enough..."
"♕: YES! Let's get going!"

Rise
20 years have passed since the Chaos Energy Quake rippled through the Milky Way Galaxy. During the year-long Quake, Chaos Energy became unusable, rendering much of the galaxy’s technology useless, and preventing Chaotics – beings who possess supernatural abilities – from using their powers. The galaxy has since moved on from the Quake, but to this day no one knows what could have caused it. The only broadly possible hints lie with the woefully few Chaotics born during the Quake, such as the seven Chaotics born on the world of Nimalia, homeworld of the Nimalian Territories. The other galactic civilizations see little correlation between the Quake and those born during it, but now that the seven have reached the age of 20, some Nimalians think they may be able to finally learn exactly what caused the galactic disruption two decades ago…
