Jeremy had no clue what was going on outside.

Jeremy needed to have a long talk with the Ark, so he walked over and said, "Hey, what just happened? What's going to happen next? Are you okay?"

The Ark had gone from having the red-brown hue on its cube to floating up, going blank, and angling down so it was looking at Jeremy. Then, it shook its head. Jeremy could see himself in it, reminiscent of how his dad used to look at him. Jeremy responded, "Hey, you told me to do it." The Ark replied, "I know, but..."

Jeremy was a little put out, but his tech brain was already in overdrive. He had music, magic, and was in his element, albeit psychotically off-kilter. He worked the problem like he would and asked the Ark some questions.

"Okay, Ark, what's the problem? How do we get rid of the extra energy? How do we start siphoning off and unlocking this? We have 6 billion people out there that we can give magic to. If we have to drain the battery quickly, it'll annihilate 6 billion people. The planet won't survive. So, what I'd like to do is make Dungeons. What do you think about Dungeons and how they work?"

Ark took a moment to figure out what a dungeon was and then, as a joke, said, "You mean like we tie up a partner and do kinky stuff?" Jeremy, not realizing Ark wasn't serious, looked at Ark and said, "No." The Ark smirked, "As I understand, you mean a dungeon that makes monsters?"

Jeremy was excited. "Yeah, but not like that. Think about training gems, food items. How much of your energy reserves would it take for you to make all that? Just not the monster part. Why do we need monsters? Do we need to make levels? Is that really a thing? What do we need to do to make magic work for us?"

A big smile came on the Ark's face. "You asked the right question. If you let magic control you, you'll die and take your planet with you. But if you control it, then we can work together. But there's a reason for the monsters..."

"To get more technical," the Ark continued, "all living creatures have an electrical field in their bodies. Every ant, every human, every titan, everything. When they die, all that electrical impulse goes back into the planet's battery. So, when it goes into the battery, but it can't be brought out in any other way than in a living creature. Lots of animals are made and killed, and stuff like that. But what if you have to make something more? What if you've been holding onto too much?"

"This is what's going to scare us: either your entire population goes on a murder spree because there's a lot that needs to be killed if we do this. But how do we do this? I've been gone for so long, and Jeremy, your planet is 6 billion psychotic things. If I let you into the universe, you're going to go on a murder spree. I believe you have a word for this. It's called Murder Hobo. You're 6 billion murder hobos just waiting to give a plane ticket to Florida."

Jeremy 100% agreed. "So much has already gone wrong with one video." But Jeremy didn't want to screw this up. "Stop right here, right now. I will not open this door if people are going to start dying. But I do want to give people access to this and provide power. So, how can we do this? How can we open the door without opening the doors?"

Jeremy stammered, "Y-yes," as the Ark explained the plan.

"I can always make 200 doors all over your planet that lead into dungeons. As long as the doors are open, they allow mana in and out. But the problem is, the moment we open those doors, they're going to start pulling in from the rest of the planet. So, I've got to release a lot at once to let that work. And that means I've got to radiate, if you will, one area here where we are, you called it Scotland..."

"You're in a dead zone right now," the Ark continued. "What that means is that no one's been sucking in the dark matter for years. You're at the bottom of a pool, and you're about to pull the plug and watch all the Dark Matter drain into your planet. It's already full, so I can't do that. So, let's start draining it by getting your people to start delving dungeons. Are you kidding me? This is so stupid, but I love that you guys have. Oh my God, I'm reading your brain right now, Jeremy, and I see all the stupid anime and easy guy crap that you've been reading and ingesting. I couldn't have asked for a dumber container of information. This is going to be perfect."

Jeremy was then pushed back to the doorway, but he didn't think he ever left it because the feeling was like he was sliding. It was very weird. It basically just shoved him out, and yeah, where it shoved him out was where the door was before they had cleaned it out, but the cave, the ceiling of it, was gone. When Jeremy came out, he was looking at a huge gray flat surface. "I'm guessing this is the ark," he said to himself and to no one in particular, and then looked up at the sky.
