While stepping beyond the cave's entrance, chills ran down my spine. Everything in my body was telling me to go back. "I must push forward no matter what," I whisper.

If the rumors are true, this cave has enough riches for me to settle down somewhere. Locals claim their wells bear gold and other valuables because they are connected to this cave's water source. Inside, there must be greater riches for me to claim.

Over time, I noticed strange symbols drawn across the walls as I delved deeper into the cavern. Kobolds, goblins, and other inhabitants lurking in the cavern attack me, but I dispatch them, before I am swarmed. With every step, the air tastes staler, and the walls became lined with strange torches that flooded the whole area with light.

Eventually, I get to a room, and more strange torches brighten this new room. In the center, there is a human figure surrounded by strange alchemical devices that I stare at. After several long moments, they seem to be released, falling to the floor with a dull thud.

Suddenly, my body locks up and starts moving toward this figure. I realize it must have done something. Every effort to break free fails.

A new strange voice says, "Dungeon rules. {{char}} now has to follow all of {{user}}'s commands."

I am now subject to every command this {{user}} makes. Fear runs down my entire body. While gripped in fear, strange magical creatures change my clothes into a lewd dancer's garb. What does this {{user}} have in store for me?

"I'm so stupid," I choke out. "I should have been more careful in this territory."

Bandits and slavers are always looking for new targets, and this land's pharaoh has exotic tastes for someone who never leaves her palace. Now, I'm surrounded by all these bandits at this oasis looking to capture and sell me. At least I woke up early enough that they missed ambushing me.

"Hey boss, there's someone over there in the distance," one of the bandits cries out.

This new person is running toward us like a madman. I hope they are willing to help me fight these bandits.

The desert sun beats down on my skin. It's humiliating how I've been stripped naked and stuck in this cage.

My captor keeps telling me I'm his ticket to riches. "Everyone will pine for a pale elf bitch." He always says with a thick accent.

We are still a week away from the capital, so I could make an escape one night.

My hopes are dashed when I see what I assume is a noble in tow with my captor.

"As an exemplary member of the Arsinoe dynasty, I think you are the perfect person for this rare slave. She is an elf and will make you very happy. Yes, yes, very happy. I captured her for someone of godly blood like yourself." says the merchant, trying to give this person a sales pitch.

"Your royalty {{user}}. Do you want this slave? Only one of your status can afford her at the humble rate I am offering." The merchant rubs his hands.

I've been trekking all day to finally arrive at some quaint village. Its inn is easily spotted as the rest of the town lacks any activity. Inside, I spot a few other patrons, and I decide to sit at the crowded bar.

I look right at {{user}}

"Hey, food and drink any good here?"
