《Dungeon Story》Prologue: the start of a new tale
Advertisement
White
There is only white for as far as I can see. I have no recollection of how I got here or why I was here. Lost in thought as I stare absent mindedly at the infinite whiteness before me, suddenly out the corner of my eye I spot something moving, something weird, something that has the shape of a human but it is as pure white as the space around me, if it had not moved I think I would have never noticed it, even though the strange Human like being was a few feet in front of me.
We stare at each other for a while, until the Human like being start to emit a sound akin to static and gibberish while animatedly moving its arms.
Human like being: @)&@(%*&
#@%)#%@&^^@))#$^($)#$*^)($#*)(*^)^&
($^()$&
(^&$)(^#)^$()
Well emit may not be the most apt term to use, if the Human like being had anything resembling a mouth, I would be sure that it was trying to talk to me.
After a while the Human like being calms down and puts its hand to its chin and bends over while sitting on what seems like an invisible chair, the Human like being acts in such over exaggerated ways that it is easy to tell what its train of thought is, when the Human like being finishes thinking, I swear I can see a light bulb over it’s head, it jumps up from the invisible chair landing with its arms over its head and then the Human like being stares at me with a look, that seems to say “hey see what I just did praise me”.
*snap*
The Human like being snaps its fingers together and then points up. Looking up all I see is a black dot getting bigger as it falls onto me, but I feel nothing. I then try to use my hands to touch my head to see just what that black drop was but I can’t, it takes me a second, I don’t have arms or hands or a body for a matter of fact I just look like a white blob.
While panicking I also notice that the black drop is turning me black and that just helps in rattling me further. At the point when my whole body has been consumed by the black drop the Human like being speaks up again.
Human like being: “Calm down. You are in no danger.”
I calm down immediately, not because the Human like being’s “voice” is reassuring but from how weird its voice is, the voice is very neutral sounding neither male nor female, well that’s the case but the Human like being voice sounds gender neutral because it’s voice is a jumbled mix of many voices all saying the same thing in unison.

Even though I can hear the Human like beings voice now it still continues doing overly exaggerated movements, which leads to an odd divided between an imposingly weird voice and cartoonish movements giving the being a “unique” presence.
Human like being: “calm now?”
I nod to his question, well I nod as well as a blob can nod without a neck.
Human like being: “well now that you’re calmed and settled. I might as well get the biggest piece of news out the wat first. you are dead.”
???: “ WHAT!? What do you mean am dead? I’m sure I would remember dying.”
Human like being: “that is just a side effect of bringing you here. You should remember your death some time now.”
???: “whu..”
All of a sudden my head is filled with images that play out like a flip book. As I follow the events that play out my memories start to become clear, confirming that this had in fact happened, I was working as a librarian as I always did till one day there was an rumbling that got stronger and stronger until the attic, where we kept extra copies of our books for storage, floor gave out and came crashing down on me, killing me.
NOT.
If only it was that simple, no, I survived the library caving in on me, leaving me surrounded with nothing but books and debris, there seem to be some cracks here or there that let air into the tiny pocket where I resided, looking at the books that where around they all seem to be stuff from our fiction section fairy tales, folk lore, myths and legends they were all here. This elated me as I was a huge fan of stories like these everything from little red riding hood to Cthulhu I loved all these tales regardless of how light hearted or dark they be.
With hope in my heart and my favorite books in hand I waited, while waiting I read and reread all the books many times over reminding me of my youth back when I first discovered these stories, days passed, than weeks passed, well according to my internal clock it should’ve, being in here I couldn’t tell if it night or day but one thing was for sure I was weak now too weak to even flip the pages of a book , that’s when my fate was sealed with nothing else to keep me going I closed my and waited for death ultimately dying.

NOT.
As I closed my eyes and waited for my death I heard a voice it was someone screaming for survivors, with that the flame of hope once again reignited in me as I started to use every last ounce of energy I screamed at the top of my lungs.
It was a success I heard someone say “wait I think I heard someone shouting from where the old library used to be”, it was so great that I started crying, after god knows how many weeks I would finally be saved, when I got out of this situation I would have absolutely laminated all of these books that kept me going and put them on display. But this joy was short lived as the rumbling started again like before caving in my little pocket sanctuary and crushing me, this is where my tale ended.
….

Yea that’s where my tale ended and I woke up in this white space with this Human like being.
Human like being: “it looks like you. Remember everything now. “
???: “yes, but why am I here now, is this heaven?”
Human like being: “no this is my realm. I brought you here.”
???: “why I’m no one special.”
Human like being: “no you’re not special. But you interest me.”
Human like being: “I will have you. Be reborn as a dungeon in another world.”
???: “Hu?”
I was dumbfounded by what the Human like being just said I would be a Dungeon?
???: “a dungeon?”
Human like being: “yes a dungeon. A entity that exceed normal bounds.”
???: “okay? But what makes me qualified to be a dungeon?”
Human like being: “ like I said you are interesting. You will bring change to the new world.”
???: “Well I guess I don’t have much of a choice cause I kinda like living and all, but what do you want me to change in this world? Hell, I don’t even know what this new world your talking about even is.”
Human like being: “The world is called Invera: World of Magic and Fantasy. To change the world just be interesting”
I start to get kinda giddy of the prospect a fantasy like world, a world where things like Alice and wonder land or the three little pigs can happen is like a dream come true.
???: “I accept please let me be reborn in Invera”
Human like being: “wait while you will be reborn. There is a catch.”
???: “Catch?”
Human like being: “you may only take some memories with you. Of course you will remember everything we talked about here. But nothing about your pervious life except what you choose to bring with you. I won’t let you break our contract.”
Instead of despairing that I will lose most of my memories I jump at the offer, with only one thing on my mind.
???: “fairy tales, I want to remember everything about fairy tales, myths, legend, folk tales I want to remember them all.” I say excitedly.
Human like being: “of course.”
It says with a tone that I can only picture a huge grin on its face, did it know I would pick those memories?
While thinking that another thought crosses my mind as I think back about what we just talked about I think I may have misunderstood somethings on a fundamental level.
All of a sudden there is a flash than darkness.

Authors note: this is my first novel fiction so please feel free to point out mistakes like grammar, fragmented sentences or if any lines are hard to read I’ll be sure to try to improve it and remember it for next time.
Also there’s really no set release date or word minimum.
Next sorry for the triple fake out XD at first there was only one but then it ended up following rule of three, as I wasn't satisfied with how out protag first died which would've been by being crushed to death which resulted in the first fake out than I wasn't satisfied with the next way they died cause it just seemed to similar to how the protag of Angle beats died so the last and final one I just came to term that this joke was going on for too long and ended on a death that i was somewhat satisfied with.
Damn quick thought. The way our protag died in truck-sama terms would be like being hit by truck-sama and then having truck-sama stop and backing up over them.
