Chapter Twenty: The Fluctuum

As I hummed the familiar tune that had inspired me, I brought to life the Guardian of the floor. The melody filled me with creativity as I carefully crafted her, knowing that she would be perfect for this floor.

Lux solitaria, fluctuum filia

In vasto mundo, sola errat

Through the endless waves, she drifts alone

Seeking a home, she's never known

Lux, oh Lux, solitaria in aeternum

Emptiness surrounds her, a constant hum

Yearning for connection, but finding none

Lux, oh Lux, daughter of the sea

In nocte silentio, she cries out

For a companion, someone to share her doubt

But the ocean's vastness echoes back

No response, just the sound of the black

Lux, oh Lux, solitaria in aeternum

Emptiness surrounds her, a constant hum

Yearning for connection, but finding none

Lux, oh Lux, daughter of the sea

In her solitude, she finds strength

A resilient spirit, she will go to any length

To find her place, to find her peace

In the tumultuous waves, her loneliness will cease

Lux, oh Lux, solitaria in aeternum

Emptiness surrounds her, a constant hum

Yearning for connection, but finding none

Lux, oh Lux, daughter of the sea

Lux solitaria, no longer alone

In the depths of the ocean, she has found her home

Among the waves, she'll forever roam

A beacon of light, in the darkness she'll own.

As I hum softly, the melody guides me as I shape the exquisite creature before me. She is a majestic serpentine beast, adorned in vibrant blue-green scales that shimmer with bioluminescence. Her triangular head exudes an aura of power, while her silver eyes hold a mysterious wisdom. The intricate silver markings on her back tell stories of ancient runes and magic.

With a flick of her tail, she can stun her enemies with a breathtaking display of light, giving her the advantage in the depths of the sea. She rules over her domain with mastery, using the intricate runes on her scales to command the water itself. Her presence is both mesmerizing and formidable, a force to be reckoned with.

At the heart of her island sanctuary lies a single stone with a keyhole, perfectly fitted for the Lupus Exitium key. When an adventurer unlocks the door, she emerges from her 'cage' and dives gracefully into the water, ready to hunt and protect her territory.

As I create more creatures for my newest floor, I turn my attention to the archway above the stairs, where I craft a poem inscribed with hints of what lies below. Each creature, each puzzle, is a part of the intricate tapestry of my world, waiting to be explored and conquered by those brave enough to venture forth.

In a land of shadows, where darkness reigns,

The five guardians hold the keys to great gains.

But beware, for if you tarry too long,

Lux will arrive with a ferocious song.

The Abyss Shark, with teeth so keen,

Will strike you down with a deadly gleam.

Lupus Exitium, the wolf of night,

Will tear you apart with all its might.

Natrix, the serpent, slithers near,

Her poison will fill you with fear.

Venator, the hunter, will chase you down,

With eyes that burn like a fiery crown.

And Nigrum Crocodilum, lurking in the deep,

Will drag you down to eternal sleep.

So heed this warning, time is of the essence,

For if you fail, Lux's wrath is of no pretense.

So find the guardians, unlock the doors,

Or face the wrath of Lux forevermore.

Turning my attention to the fluctuum, I bestow upon her a name. Your name shall be Lux, the shining beacon in the darkness of the Abyssal Sanctum. As my mana flowed through her, a transformation began to take place. She coiled up, encased in a shimmering cocoon of silver and blue, a symbol of her evolution.
