Dungeon
"Welcome Mistress" you hear in your head "It has been so long since I have had someone to talk too."
"Who are you?" you ask.
"Why I am the dungeon core at the bottom of the pool you are swimming in. Ah I see the confusion, you are from elsewhere."
"Wait you know about the costumes?" You ask.
"Of course, I am linked to your mind and I have your memories."
"Now let me explain how this world works. Outside this world is what you would call mana. Dungeons take that mana and refine it into items both raw and refined. Adventures come into the dungeon and take the items. Your job is too try to take their mana and use it too build more items. Any questions so far?"
"Why do they come into dungeons, aren't their resources outside of the dungeon?" you ask.
"Outside of a dungeon the mana levels are too low, even raw ore can't sustain itself. The only way to recharge is in a dungeon. You can transfer mana but their are losses. Anyway the most important job for you now is too build your dungeon."
The voice continues "To start off with you will want an exit from this room outside. With you being aquatic, that will probably be an ocean tunnel. Traps and the like will also secure it. Then you want to build a tunnel with monsters , traps and treasure. That is where the majority of people will try to come through."
"But before all that can happen, you will need to go out and find treasure and monsters, to add to the dungeon."
A door opens up and outside you see the ocean directly outside. Once out and looking back you see the chamber you were in makes up the entire island. Their are no other land masses in sight.
