Joe used the short amount of time that he had remaining until respawn researching what was all happening out in the ‘real world’. While most of the news centers were slowly going off-air, especially since they were mainly coastal broadcasting stations, there were plenty of people streaming from their phones.
It looked like a nightmare come to life, and there didn't seem to be much anyone could do to stop what was happening. Bullets dealt some damage, but unless it...

“Everyone!” The voice boomed over the area, and Joe recognized it as Aten’s ‘serious’ voice. “I need you all to listen closely. If you can open your browser right now, I need you to do so. Look at the news. We will be having a meeting soon to discuss our next course of action.”
Joe sat up and followed instructions, opening the first news channel he could find and pressing play on the current stream. He blanched as he recognized San Franc...

“Now I’m wondering where our guild got that blueprint that they had me use to build that building.” Joe mumbled to himself. “It was already on a magical blueprint, and I feel like that isn’t something they just found. Hmm.”
“Joe!” Poppy snapped his fingers in front of Joe and made the man jump. This resulted in a backflip and stylish landing, but it was still unwelcome. “What did you want to show us before we left the city? Having...

“You're telling me that there is no lumber, nails, or anything that I can purchase in bulk?” Joe was at the architect’s guild, doing his best to get a deal while he could. He had found a good lead at the library, so he needed to take care of a few other issues if possible. “What if I paid a premium? Ten percent over price?”
“I’m telling you, Mr. Joe.” The woman he was speaking with was adamantly shaking her head and holding her ground. “We are bought out for...

“Alright, guys.” Joe and his team were sitting around a tiny table at the coffee shop, planning out their goals for the new quest. “What do we need to do to make this happen?”
Jess raised her hand, and Joe pointed at her. “Please don't do that. Just speak when you have something to say.”
“Gotcha.” Jess grabbed a chunk of chalk from the table and started drawing on the wood. “There are more things to consider here than simply growing or importing food...

Hi guys! Thanks for a great weekend with Eternium! If you wouldn't mind doing me a huge favor, could you could pop over to amazon and leave a great review on geni.us/DungeonEternium ? More great reviews on my books mean that more people will read them, which turns into the possibility of movies/anime/video games! Much love!

“We’re back, Joe!” Alexis ran over to Joe as he was leaving breakfast. Joe’s bad mood over being interrupted halfway through his daily characteristic score training vanished like fog in a sunny day.
“Alexis!” Joe opened his arms and his teammate gave him a big hug. “It’s so good to see you, how was your trip?”
“Pretty good!” Alexis smiled even as her eyes went flat. “We were able to improve our skills a lot, gain some good experie...

“You want me to participate in making the building?” Mike didn’t even look up from the forms he was signing rapid-fire, getting through a massive stack of documents in only a few minutes. “Why?”
“Multiple reasons, one of which is to allow people to see one of their top guys going out to help them directly. It’s a public relations win, you know it would be.”Joe smiled winningly, but Mike just waved his hand for the next reason. “Allright, the o...

Well, guys, this is a bittersweet moment. Here is the final chapter of the divine dungeon series. Enjoy!
~ Epilogue ~
I had gathered all the leaders of the races and the people that had been my council. I hadn't put out a call or anything, I simply whisked them over and dropped them on the ground. Even the people that had been sealed away into the specially-prepared crates - like Madame Chandra - were able to project a semblance of themselves to inter...

Only one chapter to go! :'D / D':
Two swirls of power lifted into the air, and the bodies that had once been renowned and terrifying S-rankers or higher… withered into nothing. All that remained of the two were their souls, minds, and the barest modicum of their power.
The two streams vanished upward, and after a moment Dale felt the portal into his soul space widen to the absolute limit and permit these two access. He collapsed to the floor and wra...

The spider elemental unfurled, and the golden water orbiting around it began to move at high speed. I knew I was in trouble, but I had a plan for this. Gathering my courage, I ran as fast as I could toward the exit to the room.
The spider scuttled after me, and I zigzagged so that the droplets mostly missed me. Whatever did hit me was slowed by my armor, but I had never taken my own advice and gotten solid coverings for what amounted to awesome chainmail. The water w...

I looked at my internal self as I fell the last few feet, inspecting myself as only a dungeon could. Or a being with the mind of a dungeon, I guess. I was bleeding out from various locations, but with a directed burst of Mana I healed those areas. Of course, the overabundance of Mana was the issue in the first place. Healing the vital areas disrupted smaller patches, which started to bleed as the flesh was shredded. I had to ignore that for now, there was only so much I could do wh...

Just gonna say it, this is an epic chapter.
Barry stepped onto the third floor, and I watched him cautiously. Only a tiny tendril of my influence remained in the area, ready to be retracted at the first sign of the gaseous green fog that came out of him. The High-Elf looked around and began speaking to himself, “So much effort has gone into getting everyone to this point, and yet here I stand, alone. Everyone else is either dead, dying, or deserted. But wha...

Dale and Minya were stunned as the words reached them. They were being told to run? Then the words sank in and they realized the danger. Dale’s eyes went wide and he kicked the golem, destroying it and not even noticing that it had gone limp even before he had attacked. Without Cal’s influence urging the automatons to fight, they tended to stay in a statue-like state.
“We need to run.” Dale reaffirmed Cal’s order. “Barry has been known to eat people that ...

There had been so many people! I felt so swollen and bleh! Ugh, was this what Hans felt like after eating cheese? Now I understood his groaning in the middle of the night after gorging upon fondue. How much more did I need to go through? I turned my attention upward, moving my mind slowly to avoid hurting myself. When I arrived, I got some great news.
“That’s everyone.” Barry announced to the group after the portal onto Mountaindale...

My soul felt swollen. I was aching and in pain, and Barry hadn’t helped matters by touching the portal. The wound in my soul felt feverish and infected now, and I was thinking about closing it whether or not people were ready to see it happen. But… there was a benefit that I was seeing right away.
People had been fighting almost since the second person made it through the portal. When the Mages got going, throwing power every which way, I started seeing b...

Dale and Minya spent a few hours watching nearly the entire population of Mountaindale vanishing into the air, and for a short while the sound of silence reigned supreme. Then there was a deep groan from the mountain as a few sections of stone shifted around, and there was a constantly increasing amount of ruckus from the dungeon as new monsters con...

“Progress?” Dale winced as he stood up. “Why does progress hurt so much? The worst of it is gone, but it's just kind of throbbing continuously now.”
“Cal popped in and mentioned that they opened the portal up there.”: Minya explained with a smile. “Would you like to go check it out, or would you like to… stay here a little longer?”
“Stay here longer.” Dale responded so fast that he nearly shouted at her. “Uh, that is…”

While I wait for the Silverwood tree to accept me, or for The Master to kill off all of his people and deliver them to me, I do have a few other projects in the works. Eternium asked me to save as many Wisps and dungeons as I could, and I was really happy that he hadn’t made that request a few months ago. I’m pretty sure I took down most of the surface level dungeons that were connected to the surface of the planet, and that conversation could have gotten awkwa...

<All right.> I was staring at the Silverwood tree above me. Glaring might actually be a better word. It seemed nervous, for a tree. <Here’s the deal, I know that you can hear me, I’m hoping that the reason you haven’t been responding is that you simply don’t form words in the same way that other beings do.>
<Maybe you even have been talking to me, and think that I’m rude for not responding via scent trails or something.> I allowed ...

“Just wondering, Dale,” Minya started as she looked out at the various paths leading to the center of the room, “but didn't we leave here all torn up last time? Do you have a plan to get past all the creatures in our way? Are we sneaking somehow?”
“No.” Dale hesitated, then shrugged at her. “Look, to be frank… even though I know we might not make it, I know that there is little chance of either of us staying dead if we die in here. Maybe that isn’t the bes...

“Dale!” A voice called out frantically. Dale felt a flash of irritation: why did so many conversations start like this for him? Couldn't people just say ‘hello’ like they were supposed to do? Then he understood as a dark cloud seemed to obscure everything. No, wait… nothing was hidden! Everything was just… empty. Then Mountaindale started to fall out of the sky, and the screaming started.
Grabbing everyone in range that wasn't a Mage, Dale tossed out strea...

I extended a tendril of Essence, allowing that to reach into the air below my dungeon. I felt a presence connect to it for a moment before it was obliterated. If I were a human, I would be so pale right now. But… the feeling hadn’t been malicious. It felt like someone that had a really high grip strength grabbing a delicate glass cup without being told that it was fragile. Alright. I could work with that.
Again, I extended some Essence, but this time I u...
