Sandra absorbed the first bit of thread that emerged…and that’s when it happened.
New Monster Seed and Origination Material found!
Linen Thread
While Linen Thread can be directly used as a Monster Seed, it can also be used as a material for use in the dungeon or other purposes.
You now have access to:
Tiny Linen Thread Bobbin
Origination Raw Material Cost: 10
Origination Mana Cost: 5
Monster Min. Mana: 5
Monster Max. Mana: 10
She couldn’t absorb and gain access to the Linen cloth that Kelerim had brought back from the village, but that was because she needed to “craft” the base components herself. She doubted it would be the same with a piece of cloth made from the thread – though to make sure, she quickly spun enough for two small spools of thread and placed them on the loom she had created weeks ago. Within 15 minutes of having her Ape fumbling around with it for a while, she had created a small length of Linen Cloth – which, admittedly wasn’t the best quality, as she was anxious to see it complete – and nothing happened when she “ate” it with her Dungeon Core ability.
She never remembered Linen Thread or Cloth being something ever dropped as dungeon loot – or any other type of textile, for that matter. Though, she doubted that any other dungeon had taken the time to actually craft it, so unless they acquired it from someone who just happened to have a bobbin or spool of thread on them and dropped it in one of the dungeons, it wasn’t likely that they ever would. And even if they acquired it, they probably wouldn’t use it as a Monster Seed unless it was really valuable.
With the knowledge of being able to unlock materials like the Linen Thread in the future, Sandra was excited for what was to come.
Now all she needed to do was survive to see it.
Chapter 11
Before succumbing to the inevitable feeling of being thrown down a hole without being able to move or speak that came along with upgrading her Core Size, Sandra started to investigate the options again with her newest Core-specific skill, Organic/Inorganic Material Elemental Transmutation, or OMET for short. In addition to what was on there before with Metals, Fibrous Plant Seeds, and Clays, she now had an additional category: Non-Fruit-Producing Tree Seeds.

Sandra was a little disappointed not to see the presence of actual Wood and Thread on there, but she supposed she needed to grow and make them first before she could use them as material and as a Seed. Still, the fact that she could unlock those new seeds made her excited – and it was entirely possible that she could figure out some of the mysterious “unknown” requirements for the more powerful Tree Seeds. She also took special notice of the fact that the new category said “Non-Fruit-Producing”, which meant that she could theoretically find fruit-producing trees later – where some of the wood off of them were useful in special cases.
Because she had all of the components to finally unlock some of the new materials through the use of her new skill, that was exactly what she wanted to do. How exactly she was supposed to actually use her skill, though, was another question altogether.
It turned out to be easier than she thought. All she did was concentrate on “Maple Seed” on her new menu and feed Mana into it; the sensation and effect were strange, however, because they were like nothing she had ever felt before. When she normally fed Mana into something like a Monster Seed or a defensive trap, it just flowed out of her; this, though, felt like it was being pulled out of her Core and then shoved back into a separate compartment. When she had fed the requisite 5000 Mana into it, the Mana “popped” out of her Core and dropped to the floor in a semi-visible sphere of condensed Core energy like one of her Monster Seeds.
She could barely see it unless she concentrated on it, but she could definitely tell it was there; without thinking about it too much, she created the other necessary Seeds – 3 Average Natural Elemental Orbs and 2 Average Tin Orbs – and had a Tiny Automaton nearby transport them so that they were all in a pile. That was apparently all it took, because all 6 Orbs (the 5 material and 1 Mana-filled one) suddenly melded together and there was a brief flash of light so bright that it actually blinded Sandra for a moment. When she opened them back up, she saw a small greenish seed on the floor where the Orbs had been. It
