Harper was making an ambitiously expansive game, a new type of game with more options than the basic hack-and-slash, where exploration and cleverness were a legitimate course of action, not an extra-hard mode. But he died before he could complete his project. Only to be reborn in that world, as a normal person. Now he is in the world that he created and realizes that he knows things no one else knows, secrets only he knows. Harper sets off to find some of these secrets, wanting to make sure that he has the power to ensure that his world remains pure, that no one will have the power to ruin it like other games. And if the only way to do that is for him to get himself enough magic and mystical artifacts that he can determine the future of the world, then so be it. It wouldn’t be conquest if it was for a good cause. Right?

A World of My Own Making

Not many know this, I say, but dungeons are sentient. At the deepest level of every dungeon, the core sits, controlling the denizens within. It sets up the different structures we see in dungeons, it lays out the maps and the traps. It is a living, thinking being; in some ways, it is just like we are.


Most dungeons have gone somewhat dormant, the core just keeping things going, perpetuating the dungeon. They cant communicate with us, and so the knowledge that they are alive has fallen out of favor. But the older dungeons are more intricate, more powerful, and more sentient. They can think, and they can talk. They can take on the forms of humanoids just like us, and speak with us directly.
