The green dark-skinned creature flaps its wings and soars down towards me. Its red demonic eyes are shining through the mist.
With the face of a rabid dog mixed with a mutant goblin, its jagged white teeth shine in contrast against the hazy green dungeon background.
I’ve never seen a creature like this.

The 6 of us walk out into the rocky dungeon under the grey sky. Rolling brown hills and valleys fill our vision as far as the eye can see.

We approach the silver towers as the morning sun reflects golden light onto our approaching camels.
This city looks a lot more developed than any of the other smaller towns we’ve been through in the Dark Continent so far.
If I had to guess, it looks like tens of thousands of people could easily be housed here.

"I just need another 5 levels..."
Although a shockwave of excess magic and debris is flying my way at an alarming speed, all I can do is stare down at my status and smile.
I've gained 4 levels from the hundreds of slain mutants and another 10 levels from defeating the boss itself. This brings me up to level 495.
