"Enemy. Front" - Selth
"What type?" - Kaz
"Rock" - Selth
"So it is A Golem Then." - Zach
"Ok same formation as always. Celi and Zach stay at the back, Selth protect them, and Aldric and I will do a little game of tag, while that happens Zach prepare some spells that are effective against rock golems." - Kaz
"Got it." - Rest of party
"Ok Lets Go" - Kaz says while pulling 2 swords out and charging, while Aldric follows just behind gripping his shield with both hands.
"Oh Mother Earth, Grant This Child Of Earth And..." - Zach begins chanting and channelling mana, a rock slowly forming and spinning in the air just above.
Kaz finally gets close enough to attack and see the golem, no thanks to the lack of light, the golem had noticed him first and had its fist already flying towards his chest, but it was slow and Kaz dodged easily.
"The golem is small and slow, Zach save your mana and instead give us some light, I can barely see this thing!" - Kaz
"With Your Great Majesty and Mi- Damn It Kaz, You should have checked told me to make a light spell first!" - Zach shouts angrily and begins chanting anew, for a different spell this time.
"The Great And Merciful, Giver Of Life..." - Zach
Kaz goes in for a strike, lunging in with 1 sword to parry 1 to attack, he easily strikes a fist flying toward him away and hits the blue core of the golem. The golems instantly freezes and collapses into a pile of rocks.
Just then a ball of light appears, floating just above Zach.
"Ok I got the light finished!" - Zach
"I can see that, but I already dealt with this one. They are weak and easy to deal with." - Kaz
"sigh, that's good, it confirms this is a not murder dungeon, they usually endlessly summon minions or make the minions far too powerful to deal with, usually most dungeons behave like murder ones when you get too close to their cores. This Dungeon might not be as new as we thought, it might already have a few floors." - Zach
'So this could be a very high rank or an reawakened dungeon... Regardless it would be priceless if it is.'
"Ok Lets move onto the next room." - Kaz

"Wait wait Let me see check the body firs." - Zach
"come on, Even I know that first floor monsters will never have stuff on them or if they do it is never worth it." - Kaz
"I am not looking for loot, I am a mage remember and dungeons are beings of mana, so I want to look at the mana of the golem if there is any left..." - Zach
"Fine Fine, just hurry, I don't want to stand around forever." - Kaz
"Oh Hey I forgot to check, did you get any scratches or injuries?" - Celi
"No no, the thing was too slow, it would never have been able to do anything." - Kaz
"Still, let me check it is not like we will be going anywhere otherwise." - Celi
I am sooo bored, I expected these guys to take maybe a short break, not a break that spans Hours and I have finished the final room an hour ago, It does look very cool, especially after I made the boss sit on his throne and wait for delvers, I even added a door to the room and not one of those basic ones, but one of those throne room ones, except I added 2 little anchors to the bottom of the door to stop the door from just swinging open, on the outside as otherer wise they would have to break the latches somehow to open the door.
Now for the key details of the door, it is made of stone(what did you expect) and has a little engraving of a crown on it. Basic, I know. Oh speaking of it looks like they are finally going to move... am I forgetting something?
AH THE TREASURE!
"sigh, I'm done." - Zach
"Finally and don't make me regret this but, did you learn anything." - Kaz
"Oh I am glad you asked... No, the mana is too different I couldn't get a read on it or anything, and it disappeared before I could keep trying to." - Zach said defeated
"Thank god." - Kaz mumbled
"What?" - Zach
"Nothing!.. We should get ready to go to the next room." - Kaz
"Hmm. Alright, just let me pack my stuff." - Zach
"Oh I forgot to ask, but do you think those cores are useful for anything?" - Kaz
"No, I think they are just mediums of some sort, and no we cannot take them out as the mana inside them would flow back into the dungeon, that is the only thing I could figure out, and it is not really useful to know." - Zach
"Then just use them in the dungeon, they have mana inside them so just use them as a mana potion." - Kaz
"Are you and idiot or Are you ad idiot... sigh, Do you remember, dungeon mana is the equivalent to divinity, I and any mage in the world would explode just trying." - Zach
"But if that is true, why are dungeon cores so valuable, wouldn't they have the highest concentration of this mana?" - Kaz
"My Lord, You really did not pay attention, just because we cannot use the mana, does not mean we cannot use the cores for example, say you turned the core into a magic sword, the sword would be very, Very powerful the older the core and dungeon cores love to pull mana to them, so the magic sword will recover, get stronger and whatever else, without you even doing anything to it." - Zach
"Then why don't we use these golem cores as batteries for weapons?" - Kaz
"Because nothing but a dungeon core can even touch the mana in them, essentially unless we have a dungeon core sword, we cannot do anything with these cores, or manipulate the mana in them or well... anything, and only dungeon rewards are exempt from this as they are designed for us to use or not us, but the living minions of the dungeon." - Zach
"Huh... HEY, You distracted me, We are meant to be going to the next room!" - Kaz
"But.. you asked, sigh... never mind, lets just go" - Zach
