Dear Diary,
Lots of interesting things happened today. Instead of writing about it, I'm gonna describe the cabin ceiling in minute detail.
So, the cabins are made out of logs, not cut timber or whatever it's called. The ceilings are logs cut in half, with the flat side facing down. There isn't any electricity, so there aren't any lights or ok that's gone on long enough.
We're currently between Floors 46 and 47. Floor 46 is a field of lavender, it's really pretty. Lavender, the smell, is relaxing. Calming. These flowers give off so much relaxing smell that staying awake is almost impossible.
It counted as charm magic, not poison, which I think is kinda clever. Almost no one uses charm magic cuz it's pink, which means almost no one is resistant to it. Way more people have poison magic.
Anyways, the smell doesn't do any harm, it's not painful. It just makes everything seem ok and like we should all take a nap.
Unfortunately the floor is also full of cats and vampire butterflies. The butterflies land on anyone who isn't moving quickly and suck their blood out like a dehydrated mosquito. But if you flail they get spooked and fly away. The cats, tho, they walk between your feet to make you fall over, and then bite. It's pretty normal cat-like behavior, honestly.
We were all super exhausted when we got out of there.
Floor 43 is a candy floor. It's a maze with walls made out of pink cotton candy. And what do we have in mazes? That's right! Slimes!
I hate slimes. I really hate slimes. Thankfully I had ranch balls, and they worked just fine.
But I'd just like to state that slimes are the worst and I now have a grudge against the candy Admin for sending them here.
And then, on Floor 44… Well, Avi is upset about Floor 44.
Avi knows dinosaurs. He loves dinosaurs. He can name lots of dinosaurs.
Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.
The things on Floor 44 are not dinosaurs. There's a bird that he thinks is a hast eagle. And there's a thing that looks like a giant cross between a tortoise and an armadillo he says is a gliptodon. And then there's this… thing that looks super weird and he has no clue what it is.
It has the body of an elephant, but bigger, and then the neck and head of a giraffe. Kinda. It's a rusty brown color. And they can run unreasonably fast.
…I realize I described all the creatures in the singular. There are multiples of all of them. I mean, I wish the floor only had three creatures on it, but no such luck. There's like twenty.
Anyways, Avi kinda took his not knowing the name of this creature personally. Like he'd failed at something.
I tried telling him this isn't a dinosaur, so he doesn't need to know the name, but he's still upset.
I need to go cheer him up.
Goodnight, Dungeon!

Admin 6 received another message asking the same thing.
He wished he could tell Emmy about this. She'd find it absolutely hilarious. A part of him was tempted to send her a message, but he knew that was a suicidal idea.
Still, he missed her. He wanted to talk to her so bad it hurt.
Instead he sighed, finished his coffee, and leaned back.
"Hey, 3, what creatures are on Floor 44?" he called.
Admin 3 pushed his chair back, stretching. "Dunno. Why?"
"Players are asking about it," Admin 6 shrugged.
3 leaned forwards again, typing. "Oh, that floor. Haast eagle, paraceratherium, and glyptodon."
6 nodded, setting fingers on keys. "Thanks. And how the hell do you spell all that?"
"I'll send it over," 3 said.
"Thanks."
A moment later 6 got the message. He opened up a new message box.
From: Admin 6 To: Avi (Player 601), Lily (Player 604), Nikki (Player 606), Samuel (Player 607), Y (Player 610) Subject: Floor 44
The creatures on Floor 44 are Haast Eagle, Paraceratherium and Glyptodon.
I don't know which is which.
If you get one of the armadillo things into the lavender field, I'll send you the spreadsheet that shows what foods get what magical properties.
