After a mundane life as a shelf stacker in Melbourne, Ashvar is unexpectedly thrust into a fantastical realm where he finds himself in a lavish yet bewildering dungeon, complete with gold beds and ornate furnishings. With the booming voice of a mysterious system echoing in his mind, Ashvar learns that he has been appointed as a Dungeon Master—a title he never asked for. As he navigates his new reality, he encounters Iristil, a disgruntled advisor assigned to help him prepare his dungeon for its inaugural opening in just 36 hours. Facing the pressure of creating a challenging environment for adventurers seeking fame and fortune, Ashvar grapples with disbelief and anger. With little knowledge of dungeon management and an aversion to the idea of killing, he must quickly adapt or risk being overrun by eager adventurers. Will Ashvar embrace his unexpected role and rise to the challenge of becoming a Dungeon Master, or will he find a way to escape this bizarre fate? As he contends with the politics of rival Dungeon Masters and the demands of the adventurers' guild, he must discover the true meaning of power and responsibility in a world where every decision could lead to glory or doom.As a new writer, I welcome constructive feedback and criticism to help improve my storytelling.
