selfish, but if another dimension came to me and had the same problems we’re having, I’d most likely cut off all ties before whatever was happening there spread to my own dimension.  Malachite couldn’t and wouldn’t blame them, either; he was responsible for his own people first.

What do I do?  Lily and the other Council members…where are they?  He didn’t have any answer as he looked down, just as a relatively dim light on the eastern coast of Abenlure started to flash rapidly, before fading out altogether a few minutes later.

Chapter 23

It was amazing how much of a difference an additional 10 Dungeon Force per minute could make.  Tacca was not only able to do everything she needed to in her upper dungeon – including rearranging the Spike Pit traps once a day – but also to make some progress on her new section down below.  She still wasn’t nearly done yet with construction, as her plans were a bit ambitious, but she finished at least twice as much as the month before.  Not only that, but it was really starting to take shape, and she could envision what it would look like when it was finished.  She was fortunate that the mountain range in which she was located was so large, because it afforded her the opportunity to really spread out and do what she wanted without being restricted by available space.

As for the 4 rooms she started building the month before, she expanded those so that they were even larger. The one closest to her new Core Room, far down below, was the largest by far.  It was 500 feet long and 250 feet wide, and the roof of the room was another 500 feet tall; at the moment, it was basically just a vast empty cavern, but she had plans to fill it later once she unlocked her new Mountain Environment.

The other three were smaller in size, with the one closest to the surface being half the size of the massive cavern.  The other two were smaller than even that one, maybe only 100 feet square on each side, and they were located in between the others and separated by a simple tunnel.  When those were finished, Tacca started to create additional rooms that branched out from the uppermost room to the left and right.  Each of these were 150 feet long on each side, which were still huge compared to the rooms she had made previously for her easier dungeon – and she wasn’t even done yet.

Branching off from these 2 rooms were tunnels leading off to the left or right (respectively) and further down. These tunnels led to 4 more rooms, which were a little smaller at 100 feet long, wide, and tall.  She now had 4 main rooms in a “corridor” of sorts that essentially progressed straight down, 2 rooms that branched from the uppermost room on each side, and one that was connected below the first room constructed next to the main corridor.

She still wasn’t done with what she had planned, but by the time the month was up, she was happy with her results.  At least, she was happy with her construction results; as far as her accumulation of CIPs, she just barely acquired enough to Level up to Core Improvement Level 12 – and that was even considering that she had already banked some from the month before.

Congratulations, Tacca GloomLily!

You have reached Core Improvement Level: 12

Current CIP Countdown: 12/2300 in 30 days

Core Improvement Points earned: 2000 (2100)

Special Characteristic Points earned: 25 (50)

The reason for this was a dramatic drop in Raider deaths; it was almost as if daring to think about the possibility of it happening had somehow jinxed her and her luck came back to bite her.  In total, only 1 Raider had died, and that was due to the Healer’s stupidity of rushing into the Boss room to fight by himself before the others were anywhere ready.  Even then, dumb luck managed to save him from being mauled on a half-dozen occasions, as bites ended up snapping short of his skin, or from a Mastiff Dog stumbling and tripping up two Frond Coyotes; but sometimes even luck can’t win out against a force of Canines that outnumbered a Raider at least 15-to-1.

If she hadn’t been constructing such large rooms down below, she probably wouldn’t have made it to her goal of 2,000 CIPs.  She needed to cheat a little and use her new Control Limit to produce more creatures to get her over the total, which were presently lined up in her current Core Room.  They were a mixture of Root Foxes and Burrowing Mongooses, which were like small, long, slim cats in general shape, but were as unalike as a fox and a wolf.  They only cost 1 point towards the Control Limit, however, and they fit in her Core room better than having only 100 Root Foxes.

With all of that, she managed to make her goal by 12 CIPs, which were all she was able to bank for the next month.  Unless something happened to increase Raider deaths, there was a distinct possibility that she wouldn’t be able to Level-up in 30 days.

But that didn’t mean she wasn’t happy about spending some of those Points she earned.
