Chapter 8: Chapter 8: The tower becomes larger, as does the desire of the world to steal our pretty rocks

A dungeon-core is a mass of condensed magical energies that has come to life. In a sense, they’re similar to fairies in this regard.

However, while fairies are birthed of the ambient magics of a location or along the leylines of the world, dungeon-cores seem to have much more specific birthing conditions; these have never been observed or documented.

Dungeon-cores, in the rare circumstances in which they have been seen or even communicated with, have done little to reveal their secrets and why would they?

After all, they live their life on the defensive, always fortifying and upgrading their lairs, their dungeons, for the next wave of intruders to come. It would give them very little benefit to reveal any of their secrets.

It is a great tragedy for us as scholars. However, it also offers a great opportunity as researchers, as there is so much left for us to discover about dungeons, their mannerisms and their history.
