Dear Diary,

The kobolds are having a poetry contest tomorrow! I’m gonna go because Avi, Mika and Aya are entering, but I’m prepared to be super bored.

Poetry was never my thing.

Aya had to specifically ask if haikus were allowed, and they are.

Mika and Avi write songs, which is (according to Mika) “like poetry, but different”. Avi apparently understood that perfectly, given how seriously he nodded when she said it. They spent all day today adjusting their song lyrics to be poetry.

I… am going to be so bored tomorrow.

But that’s ok! My being there will make Avi happy, and that’s all that matters.

It’s been three days since the last time I wrote. The whole hobgoblin thing is moooostly behind us. Avi and I are fine, at least. Kimi and Y are ok, but Y is quieter than usual. He’s still worried about what the hobgoblins will do to retaliate. His worrying has made Staab worried, which made Staab realize he still cares about Lilly.

They had a big long conversation, and are now… friends. Just friends.

Hopefully that means all the drama is over. There aren’t any dramatic things happening at the moment, at least. With any luck, nothing that involves emotions will happen for the next fifty cycles.

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Oh, next cycle we’ve decided to all be the same color! With half-dragons, magic color changes their scale colors, so we’re going to be a color-coordinated pack.

But that means we have to pick a color. Obviously everyone voted for their color, and then the Sams all changed their vote to be yellow. I was about to say I wouldn’t mind having lightning magic, when Mika said we should have a marble race to decide.

So we get a marble race this cycle!! We decided to have two; one where everyone has just one marble running, then the top five get a second race with four marbles each.

We had the first race yesterday. The people moving on (in order) are Kimi, Avi, Staab, me, and Samurai.

I think if Samurai (her color is pink) wins, everyone will demand a third race. We can’t agree on what color to be, but we all know what color we want not to be.

Staab is brown, which means earth magic. That would be kinda boring but fine.

Red fire magic would be fun. I think a group of silver half-dragons would be super pretty, regardless of magic. But obviously I think a pack of emerald green dragons flying through the sky would be best.

Oh, Aya said that there are more slimes in the slime maze now. She said they’re smaller and faster, and that the big slimes are more aggressive now.

I’m glad we have the shortcut, and don’t have to deal with them any more. I think there were already plenty of slimes down there, but I guess the Admin has to change things around from time to time. I just wish he’d add more dire wolves, not more slimes.

More fluffy wolves can only ever be a good thing. More slimes is always bad.

Goodnight, Dungeon!
