《The Life of a Dungeon》Chapter 38
Advertisement
When Teaghan pulled up the blue screens from the pile of materials that Orius gave her, a wall of blue screens popped up. She quickly got overwhelmed and pushed the blue screens back into her mind and dismissed them so that she could read and go through them later.
With the potential gold mine of materials from Orius, Teaghan decided that she wanted to start on her sixth floor before she looked at the pile’s blue screens.
When Teaghan went to start her sixth floor, three blue screens popped up.
Congratulations! You have unlocked the “Safe Area” option.
The safe area option is an area that dungeons can create that are used as rest zones for adventurers. These areas are used to allow adventurers to rest without the worry of getting attacked by creatures and objects within the dungeon.
Choose your second biome type for floors six to ten.
Be aware that you will be restricted by this choice until you create your eleventh floor.
Biome Types
Basic Lake
Basic lake environment, but due to the dungeon core having a mana leyline, this biome gains the effects of mana concentration on the environment (dungeon core creations can circumvent this). Comes with a set of basic lake and water fauna and flora included. Monster species included with the biome. Due to one of the dungeons titles, an extinct species related to this biome will be included with the biome.
Basic Desert
Basic desert environment, but due to the dungeon core having a mana leyline, this biome gains the effects of mana concentration on the environment (dungeon core creations can circumvent this). Comes with a set of basic desert and heat-related fauna and flora included. Monster species included with the biome. Due to one of the dungeons titles, an extinct species related to this biome will be included with the biome.

Basic Tundra
Basic tundra environment, but due to the dungeon core having a mana leyline, this biome gains the effects of mana concentration on the environment (dungeon core creations can circumvent this). Comes with a set of basic tundra and arctic fauna and flora included. Monster species included with the biome. Due to one of the dungeons titles, an extinct species related to this biome will be included with the biome.
Basic Taiga
Basic taiga (snow forest) environment, but due to the dungeon core having a mana leyline, this biome gains the effects of mana concentration on the environment (dungeon core creations can circumvent this). Comes with a set of basic taiga and cold-related fauna and flora included. Monster species included with the biome. Due to one of the dungeons titles, an extinct species related to this biome will be included with the biome.
Teaghan read through the blue screens, and the safe room option caught her attention, but she put that at the back of her mind and focused on the biomes. Teaghan carefully read through the types of biome options that she had. She instantly dismissed the desert and tundra because they are more barren. With what happened with Orius, Teaghan wanted something that had more natural barriers. With that idea, it left Teaghan with the basic lake and basic taiga biomes.
She read through both descriptions and carefully, and they were mostly the same. The taiga biome had cold-related fauna and flora, while the lake biome had water-related fauna and flora. After an hour of going through pro’s and con’s, Teaghan decided that she would choose the basic taiga environment.
You have chosen the Basic Taiga Biome.

Shrike
He wants to play the latest and greatest VRMMORPG game, but he can't muster up the cash for the fancy new proprietary hardware and membership license. After months of saving up cash and arduous work, he has built a behemoth of a machine relying almost entirely on seedy old technology and a DIY guide by some dude named "Jimmy Bob." This is the story of his entry into the game. This is also a story of intrigue, exploration, introspection, batshit crazy game design, and unintended but entirely predictable consequences. This is G.C.O. Undergoing a total re-write, mostly because I think things were too rushed rather than any content or direction changes. If you are one of the few who tried Shrike when it was briefly updating, consider giving it another shot. Of no relation to either The Great Crusade or the recent (in 2017 lol) Shrike book for Warhammer by Games Workshop. All similarities in these cases are superficial; please don't sue me. Feedback welcome and encouraged, never be afraid to review or comment. HQ/Kindle-Grade cover art. Book Cover 2.0: "From the Dark"

Will You Be Alone? After The End? Don't You Know We're All Still Here?
More than a century ago the world was devastated, but that doesn't matter. Nobody cares about the past, stories from that time are as wildly conflicting as they are ridiculous--when any stories exist at all. There are problems in the here and now that need to be dealt with, bringing the past into things isn't going to help anyone. The fact is that young people all over the world are developing mysterious powers, and the public reactions to these powers are far from positive. Fair enough, you might say. Who wants a young man around who can conjure heat from the palm of his hand? How deeply undesirable is a girl who can bend your emotions to her will? What use, I ask you, is a girl whose very essence crackles with lightning? No use at all, I'd say. As for this so-called Mr Fin and his grand ideals, well, all I can say is that his clothing is of better quality than his plans. Vague allusions to a 'sanctuary' and a 'mysterious and powerful statue' are all very well, but when it comes to solid results I fear you may find him somewhat lacking. Mark my words and mark them well, following one such as him will only lead to tears. All in all, I'd say there's not much you could reasonably expect from a world such as this. Conflict, perhaps. Hardship, certainly. Despair, heartache, loss... ...hope? No, don't be ridiculous. Where could one find hope, in this ruin of an existence? Honestly, I am asking. Where?Discord
