Chrysalis

Chapter 1127

How deep does the Dungeon really go? It’s possible that only the Ancients truly know. Certainly no human, golgari, ka’armodo, brathian or any other old race has plumbed the greatest depths and returned.

Of course, it’s possible an empire or organisation has managed to find their way down and has kept it a secret for all these years, but this researcher doubts it.

Instead, we can apply ourselves to examining what information is public and making inferences from there.

To many who toil on the surface, living within the Dungeon is nothing but a legend, a myth or fairytale for children. Little do they know that many of the goods they create and crops they harvest find their way down into the depths, supporting cities and fortresses they do not believe exist.

Of course, the seats of power for almost all the great kingdoms and empires on Pangera are found in the fourth stratum. Filled with abundant life mana, this is a dangerous yet wondrous place to live.

Beyond is the fifth, and it’s unfortunate, but many records end there. A world of poison, decay and toxin, the fifth stratum is a hellscape, inimical to life. However, there are some who are prepared to admit that they have gone beyond this point and into the sixth.

Sometimes, I wonder if those of us in the fourth are similar to those on the surface. There could be a whole world beneath us that we refuse to believe exists, cut off by dangers that we believe insurmountable.
