In Deep Shit

Forewarning!

"Yo!" means someone is talking

*Yo!* means someone is thinking

--------------------------

Ais had just killed the Demi Spirit known as Virga, and although the overgrown explosive caterpillar was a decent foe Ais had an uneasy feeling something wasn't quite right.

Where the monster had fallen, a rip in space occurred causing the entire dungeon to shake, Ais was able to stay on her feet but that portal felt really dangerous. Out of the portal, a large hand emerged it looked to be made of liquid space, the hand dripped this liquid occasionally before it opened its hand and set down a child that looked to be 14 years of age, she had long purple hair, and pale skin, on her left hand she had what looked like a small purple tattoo, and her right eye was covered in an eyepatch much like she had seen Hephaestus wear while the left eye was purple.

Stella had appeared in this new world as the voice had said, and the first thing she noticed was the smell of a corpse and a burning smell, holding in the bile that had risen up her throat she looked around for any sign of people. Before long Stella had met Ais's eyes, and they stared for a while before Stella waved at Ais and Ais had started to move towards her.

"Are you a monster?"Ais asked

"I- no? I'm pretty sure I am a human."Stella responded

"Ok."Ais said," Where did you come from then?"

"I'm not quite sure, I was told it was where magic comes from. Where are we currently?"Stella answered

"Did you come from heaven? Are you a god?" Ais asked

"I doubt I was in heaven and I am sure I'm not a god, I pretty much just died before I came here and I don't think gods can die."Stella was sure she was not a god.

"We are also currently in the dungeon."Ais said

"The dungeon? Where is that and are you exploring something like that alone?"Stella asked

"No I'm with my familia."Ais answered

Ais proceeded to turn around and walk towards where her familia was located. Stella panicked a little when Ais turned to leave, she didn't want to be stuck in a dungeon alone right now.

"My name is Stella I-uh never got your name and where are you going?"Stella tried to make conversation with the girl

"Ais, and I'm meeting up with the other members."Ais flatly responded

Stella followed Ais back to where her familia was, hopefully, they would be able to tell her where the dungeon was, and what a familia is.

The Loki familia was waiting for Ais to get back with everyone except Finn being some form of nervous. They saw 2 people approaching from the fog and got ready for a fight, but as they saw Ais they lowered their weapons, though quite a few were curious about the girl that followed.

"Good job Ais but what was with the earthquake and who is this?" Finn asked with curiosity and relief slipping through

"When I killed the monster a portal opened up causing the shaking, and Stella came out." Ais explained flatly

"Really? The girl came out of a portal?" Riviera asked with doubt and concern

"Yes."Ais responded

"Uh sorry if I'm interrupting something but I still don't know where this is other than this being a dungeon."Stella interrupted before anyone else could say anything

"How do you not know where you are, and did you really come from a portal?"Riviera asked with some serious concern lacing her words

"I did come out of a portal, and there was no dungeon where I am from."Stella was worried they wouldn't help her and with how well-armed these people were she was worried if she would be able to even escape a monster if it came after her.

"What level are you kid?"Gareth asked

"Level? What is a level?"Stella was confused about what a level was and why did she need one?

"Oh god more trash!"Bete was not happy how the hell did a falna-less kid end up this deep into the dungeon?

"You don't have falna, why would your portal end up here on the 50th floor then?"Finn was worried about why a kid with no falna would be this deep in the dungeon

"I never said it was my portal, I was put here by the voice."Stella was starting to panic now. Why would the voice put her in such a dangerous place, did it even know where it was putting her?

"How do I leave, I don't want to die again!" Stella realised what she said and covered her mouth before she panicked and said anything else that would make her seem more suspicious than she already was.

"Die again?"Riviera and Finn said in tandem

The Loki familia was surprised at what the child had said, receiving mixed responses from them. They decided to help Stella out and help get her out of the dungeon, Stella also learned about how things worked around here, and she was completely surprised people could use magic without the need for tools and gadgets!

She was told that the gods had descended 1000 years ago, sealed their divinity, and created familia which were groups that contained adventures and supporters that often delved into the dungeon.

How the gods had gifted falna which was the grace the gods gave to mortals to allow them to gather excelia to grow stronger and raise their statuses.

They talked about the 3 great quests and how the Zeus and Hera familias had finished 2 of them but failed to complete the last one, to slay the One-Eyed Black Dragon.
