Blackness. Pure blackness as I fell. I don't know for how long a minute may be maybe an hour. Then suddenly

I quickly dismissed the pop-up a saw a large the pyramid rushing towards me I had enough time to blink before Splat

Respawn timer: 60:00 minutes
Oh god, the elevator music.
“NOOOOOOO”
As I awoke, I found myself in a darkly lit room, a wide corner was in front of me made of clean-cut stone, I could not make out a single crack or blemish in the stone. Set into the wall every twenty meters were small dishes, a small orb of light hovered above them casting a bluish glow on the sandstone around me. It was roughly five meters wide leading in a long corner to a door some five hundred meters in front of me. As I turned around, look for the statues that typically compiled temples respawn room I found nothing but a small statue, carved out the same sandstone as the walls, a small raven was sitting on a pedestal, there were no statues of Malus or Astrave just this small statue of a raven. I set off down the hall. To the stone door in front of me. As I reached it, I examined it for traps and found none. As I pushed the door open a large cavern was in front of me, set in front of me was a small plinth. On it, a stone tablet lay. I walked up to it and began to read.
When Nevermore’s children walk the earth they will set this land ablaze

Those untouched by death's embrace,
They will walk this land in undying grace.
They will burn this land in their disgrace.
When Ragnarök comes the gods will weep.
As I looked up I look towards the cavern, large mushrooms covered the floor, lying on the floor in front of me was a bag, my gear lying were it had been dropped from my fall. as I looked up a large crystal was embedded into the rock casting a reddish glow into the ground lighting the place. As I looked around for an exit I found none, as I looked around desperately scanning for an exit, I noticed none. That's when it hit me, my friends were dead, I was trapped how far underground, I have no idea if the civilians survived in the meadow, I had no idea if anyone got in if they had been found. I was trapped underground with nothing but a field of mushrooms, and a stone tablet predicting the end times. MY FRIENDS WERE DEAD. I slouched down leaning against the walls of the pyramid and began to cry.

The Infinite Labyrinth
(Story complete - Book 1 "Shanghaied", 2 "Shortcuts", 3 "Secrets" and 4 "Sanctions") It is the 19th century, and war smoulders between England and France. Any hope for a quick end to Napoleon's rampage across Europe ended when the Great Gates opened in 1800. For a fortunate few, the strange world of the Infinite Labyrinth offers opportunities, strange descriptors popping in their minds, informing them of growth, and status beyond that of a mere mortal. The materials and power crystal they bring back foster a new age, both military and civilian. Aether-powered Skyships prowl the skies, as all the great nations blessed by the Gates try to turn the blessings of the Labyrinth into immediate advantages. But for Jonas, an apprentice leatherworker, his friend Ira, and so many Londoners, the fabled ones that walk the Labyrinth are distant heroes, seen from afar. They fell short when their Potential was measured, and they fill their mundane lives with distant dreams. One man wants to break the stalemate. The Tyrant of the Dominion of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, has a plan. Eighteen years after the world changed, he will force it to change again. And when civilians are caught in the fallout, the unthinkable happens. Six people, unqualified, forbidden to ever enter the Labyrinth, find themselves stranded in a distant zone, forcefully turned into Professionals. They know little of what that means, but they have to figure out the rules that are now their lot, for they have little hope to escape their predicament otherwise. They need to understand what the descriptors in their minds mean, what each of the strange piece of gear waiting in treasure chests behind terrible guardians can bring them. They have to become Professionals on their own and rejoin the Empire. They will figure out their new lives one way or another. But will there be an Empire waiting for them when the Gates re-open? Caught in a clash of empires and high tiers, they will do what little they can. They will step up and do their best. One way or another. The Infinite Labyrinth is a slice-of-life litRPG adventure set in a real historical setting. It's a hard, crunchy litrpg. Expect blue boxes everywhere, and the system itself is very mathy. It started life as a serial. I prepared some proper worldbuilding, with enough details and background for lots of different potential story arcs, but as I wrote, I realized the main story needs to have a definitive end. So, there are four books in total, for a bit under 1500 pages, plus additional side stories, and even maybe a sequel one day. The Gore tag was added as a precaution because there are a few scenes with some light gore.
