Well, let’s get to the purpose of this extra chapter. One of you has sent me a lengthy response saying I really don’t explain shit in this novel. You know what? That is true. This is a first person story after all. I might have my own shortcomings as a writer myself, but think about it; would you really have someone explain things to you logically if you come to a different world? Maybe, but most of the time, the answer is no. I find it unrealistic that you have to find out things before it happens to you. No, the shaz will happen first whether you like it or not. And I don’t really like my villains explaining their shit either because come on! Where is the mystery and romance in that? It’s up to the mc to find out what’s wrong by the bits and pieces they left. Connect the dots as they say my friends.
Well, there’s more to be filled out when I have more time. This is it for now. Spoil yourself if you must.

The World
Long ago, a war that threatened to destroy the whole world broke out, and in the midst of that one gigantic turbulence was a young man who came from a different world. He put an end to the madness brought upon the very being mankind worshiped as a Goddess. He built the magic wall which separated the world of mortals to that of the Goddess and her advocates, and put an end to the fighting. Finally, his efforts rewarded him with peace and the world was reformed to his liking. Those who fought with him who survived the struggle became kings and leaders while others sought their own path. And soon enough, the young man disappeared himself.
Hundred of years later, while the two nations in the Zeal continent were battling for supremacy, a giant obsidian obelisk appeared out of nowhere — a phenomenon that no one was able to explain. These obelisk were later known as "Dungeons". Who made these dungeons? For what purpose? Question and doubts about these dungeons were forgotten, as mankind prospered from its appearance.
Thus, a new era involving these dungeons began.
