The Crafter's Dungeon: A Dungeon Core Novel (Dungeon Crafting Book 1) by Jonathan Brooks (literature books to read TXT) 📕

probably still there.  They had come to investigate his disappearance when he didn’t arrive and found the skins and quickly rotting meat left outside, but they hadn’t found the entrance to the dungeon – thankfully.  Kelerim didn’t want any more deaths on his conscience as it was.

“I’ll do what I can, Sandra.  I want to thank you again for everything you’ve done for me, and not just for saving my life.  This was the first time I ever felt like I fit in somewhere and had my work valued at the same time.  I appreciate the time you took to teach me, and…maybe someday I’ll be back to learn some more from you,” he told the empty air near the dungeon entrance tunnel.

* I’ll look forward to that day.  Goodbye, Kelerim. *

He waved to the air and said, “Goodbye, Sandra.”  Kelerim hitched the leather pack higher on his back, the sheer weight of everything inside weighing him down a little.  He didn’t mind, though, because he needed everything in there if he was going to succeed in his quest to find his father.

And with a final look back into the dungeon that changed his life, he set off to make his way in the world.

*        *        *

Sandra watched as Kelerim walked out the entrance, where she lost him until he showed up in her Mechanical Jaguar’s sight up above.  She saw him travel back towards Orcrim, and his step was surprisingly sprightly for someone heading into a relatively unknown situation.  After only about 20 minutes, his figure was lost to the horizon as the heat from the day blurred his shape.

“It’s a shame that he left; he was just starting to grow on me.  What are you going to do now?” Winxa hesitantly asked after Sandra told her Kelerim was gone.

I’m sure I’ll see him again.  In the meantime, though, I have some projects to see to – saving the world takes work, you know!

The Dungeon Fairy smiled, the expression on her face plainly one of relief.

Author’s Note

Thank you for reading The Crafter’s Dungeon!

I wrote this book because I love to read about two things: dungeon cores and crafting.  Most books about dungeon cores have a bit of crafting in them, of course, even if it’s just the core creating rooms in their dungeon or putting together traps and monsters – but I wanted more than that.  I enjoy digging deeper into the normal “player” or “hero” crafting process, and I’m fascinated on how many things can be made with just basic materials.

In the future, Sandra will be crafting some unique things as well, including when she finally achieves Core Size 20 and can access the Advancement system – and then all bets are off!

Again, thank you for reading and I implore you to consider leaving a review – I love 4 and 5-star ones!  Reviews make it more likely that others will pick up a good book and read it!
