Hmmm, where am I?
Why is it always dark when I wake up?
I try to look around but, I don't see anything. I try to get up but, i noticed that I don't have a body.
"What the-, where is my body?"
I start freaking out because I can't see anything, can't move, and touch anything. I start wondering if I am really dead until I remember that I am supposed to be a dungeon. I start to calm down and try to remember what dungeons in the light novels I read did.
I think they tried to feel mana in the air and try to absorb it but, I don't know how to do that. I guess I just have to try and see if I can feel anything.
I try to meditate like I did when I was alive and see if I can feel anything. I spread my senses to see what is around me but, all I know is that it is quiet. I start to get discourage until I feel something. Its a warm feel that start gathering around me.
May be this is mana? I should try to absorb it.
I try to suck up the mana but, it doesn't move at first. Soon sometime pass until the mana starts combining with me.
You have learned how to manipulate mana. Now you can wake up.
Wow, I wonder if I didn't know how to absorb mana would I have to sit in there forever. That's a scary thought.
I start to regain consciousness and soon I see a dark cave.
"Great, you finally woke up. I thought I would have to jump start you." Something says in the back of the cave.
"Who is there?" I say suspiciously.
"My name is Draco. I am one of your dungeon partners. I have been waiting here for a hour now to see if you needed any assistance waking up." Draco says walking out in to the open towards me.
Draco was about 4"10 with pointy ears, red eyes, small nose, slim face, red skin,wings, and a tail. He was wearing a red leather jacket, a black shirt, and black pants. He actually looked pretty good looking in it.
"Oh, why didn't you wake me up then?"
"I was going to until I notice you start absorbing mana. I didn't want to interrupt you."
"Ok, where is Terra?"
"Terra went home to bring her stuff and tell her family."
"Where is your stuff?"
"It's in the corner and since I notice you can't see it. Why don't I teach you how to see around the dungeon?"
"That's great."
"Ok, Dungeons are able to notice any creature living or dead in its dungeon. How they see is by imagining themselves
being there. So I am going to go over to where my stuff is and I want you to tell me if you can see me. Ok?"
"What?, Why wasn't I able to notice you before?"
"That's because you just woke up and you weren't focused. When you just wake up it takes you awhile to focus on where you are. That is what you did."
"Ok, you can go to your stuff." Draco just nods and starts walking.
I feel him moving farther away from me and stop. I start imagining the area he is in and I am instantly see him right in front of me.
"I see you."
"That's good. Now I might as well teach you the beginnings about a dungeon because Terra will not be here until a week. She is so rude. Anyway before we start, What is your name."
"Seth"
Dungeon master name is Seth. For picking a name you receive 10 mana points.
"Draco, I receive 10 mana points for picking out a name!"
"Yea, ever dungeon gets it but, that is good thing anyway. Now I want you to open your status window. Just say or think status."
"Status"
StatusDungeon NameDungeon MasterSethLevelZMana510Floors1Rooms1
"Why don't I have a Dungeon Name?"
"You can pick one but, usually adventurers pick the name based on what attributes you have."
"Oh ok, what's next?"
"Well, I think I should show you your crystal. We are going to have to protect from monsters and adventurers or we both die."
The dungeon crystal is probable expensive like the stories.

Draco picks up his stuff and walks over to where we were before. I noticed that if I focus I can follow him. Its kinda creepy because I feel like a stalker.
"Here we are. This is your crystal. Its small right now but, when you gain more floors and monster it will grow. To keep it safe, You should hide it in the wall so it will be harder for adventurers to find it. Before you do that we should make more rooms than open up the cave."
"If we open up the cave, wouldn't people attack us?"
"The adventurers guild and the academy won't attack us yet and I can fight off the animals. We will have to open up the cave anyway because you won't generate mana if you don't have some creature in your dungeon."
"Ok, so how do I make rooms?"
"All you have to do is pretty much pick a wall and imagine a hallway, room, stairs, and pretty much anything. The only thing is everything takes mana to build and the bigger it is the more it cost. Of course, I can build it too. I just need to time and to know how big you want it."
"How many rooms can you make a day?"
"If I work fast and it has no decoration, I can make four with rest."
That is not bad since he has to do it himself.
"How much mana is it if I make it myself?"
"It will cost 100."
If I do it myself I can only make five but, will I be able to summon monsters with only 10 mana pionts.
"How much is it to summon monsters?"
"Do you mean a starting race?"
"Well not really I want to make a ecosystem first then have different monsters."
"Well, you can make an ecosystem but, you have to have a starting race and then add more races. You shouldn't get disappointed about it because you can also get monsters if animals evolve or if a monster wants to join your dungeon."
I am glad that it is like because it won't be to easy for me. I just have to work even harder.
"Ok, how much is the starting race?"
"Well, you will get extra mana points for picking your starting race but, summoning them cost 10."
"Ok, How do I pick a starting race?"
"Wait, your moving to fast. You should make a good foundation of the dungeon before you pick your race."
"Your right sorry, I am just to excited."
"Haha, it ok. So what do you want me to do and how many rooms do you want?"
"I want seven rooms. I will build the first four and you can build the last three. How do i give you a blueprint of what I want you do."
"Thanks for reminding me. I have to connect with you then when you want to show me something I just touch you then I will be able to see it. There are two ways to connect with you, first you have to push mana into the other or that person has to push mana into you. They would put it in your core and you will put it in their head. That is also how outside monsters get to join your dungeon."
Draco walks up to my crystal and starts putting mana in me.
Do you want Draco Sinvel to join your dungeon.
"Yes"
Do you want him as your Dungeon partner?
"Yes"
Do you want him as your Primo?
Hmm, Primo?
"Draco, what does the Primo do?"
"Oh, Primo is just the person who is in charge if you are unconscious."
"Do I have to answer now? I didn't get to meet Terra yet."
"No you don't, just say no to the question and if you chose me all you have to do is state so. But please don't make me Primo, it is to stressful."
"Ok, I do not want Draco as my Primo."
Are you sure?
"Yes"
"Ok, now that I have officially join your dungeon we can begin."
Draco walks up and touch me.
"Oh, I see what you want to do. Do you want me to make the trap room?"
"Yes."
"Ok, let's begin."
