Can we attempt to trap it within a red and white sphere?
Nope. Well maybe. But he's a PC so it's not a good idea.

You have no red and white spheres with which to test your theory.

((The reference was already got))

The steaming cup seems to be of some type of drink. what drink that is is unknown.

The floating things are rocks.

"GREETINGS! I AM-WAS A.R.M.O.K.! I MIGHT SERVE YOU ONCE AGAIN!"

Looks like that mining robot you built was caught in this mysterious magical conflagration.

The encounter ends, and the rockified being continues to stand there.

I do not think it a wise idea to ask the entity to leave itself...

 Do we possess any means of magically determining past events?
 Do we possess any means of magically enhancing the process of physically/mentally determining past events?
 Can we just magically fuse the whole dungeon into a single creature?

Why not? It's not like he was born here. We built him.

Yes actually. It might not be on our person but rose gold mana lets us see the past.

Probably but from the inside.

Magically deduce what happened to cause our servant to become this dungeon.

Using the power of rose gold, you deduce what happened.

A.R.M.O.K apparently used some type of magic to lower the energy of some air to the point where it became solid, and caught on ice-fire, or something along those lines, upon putting it in one of the splitter tanks, it exploded, and all of the heavily magical materials and objects it had been hoarding were scattered in a warped space area that occupies this location, and all of the objects were either integrated into it, or were made sapient.  A.R.M.O.K's intelligence was apparently retained in an earth elemental Gemstone attached to one of it's manipulator arms.

"Come my minion! We must away!"

"... *MIGHT*. I NO LONGER HAVE A PURPOSE. YET, WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME?"

Your apparently potentially-former-minion haggles.

You now have a mass of 1 Rose gold mana floating in your control, waste not want not.

The mana displays what is happening in the short past.

We can provide unique materials, powerful gear, and a new, better body!

...Can we store the rose gold mana for a while? I think we've basically figured this place out.

Take a peak at what Armok was doing just before we met here?

My first instinct is to fuse together all the now-sentient entities here into a single amalgam... Or inspire them to form a self-sustaining colony...

+1 But also do the leaving thing. You need to do the leaving thing.

"We can provide unique materials, powerful gear, and a new, better body!"

A.R.M.O.K agrees to come along.

Winning the Boss Encounter and Soloing the Dungeon nets you some phat loot, the -Cuil Device- Which can Abstract reality one level away from itself using -Cuil Vectors-, of which there is currently two in it, "Underground" Which is apparently whatever freaky alteration to the normal reality this dungeon is, and "CCG" whose function can only be guessed at. There is also a "Default" option, which it is not set to.


Using another point of Rose mana added to the mass, you look further back, Apparently A.R.M.O.K had been busy, producing new gear, making that Motorcycle/tank thing and new katanas and Guns for the Jeannes, with their help, mining, creating some basketball themed horror of a submerged dungeon before this in a freak accident involving Blank matter production and an exposed vein of Jamicite, which is apparently what that portal leads to, developed a type of nearly indestructible rubber (Which it gave the recipe to on a stone tablet, which is is in the base, did a bunch more experiments and self enhancements, flirted with Honey, which ended horribly, then all of this led to it accidentally exploding in a magical nuke in this Former Tunnel, while carrying a boatload of Various experimental objects and equipment.

You now have a mass of 2 Rose gold Mana in your mental grip, you could absorb it to make it last a while, but this will attune your spells to it if it is mistakenly used, It's effects on your spells and body are completely unknown.

You finally leave this nightmare, and get back to your more familiar one.


Isn't it good to be home?

The Jeanesense seems to have died down a bit, several Jeannes are out on a "Joyride" on that Tank Motorcycle, and by several, you more than likely mean several tons...

Wizard butler is doing his thing, and so is everyone else.

A.R.M.O.K has followed you as specified.

We might want to consider moving our base away from that dungeon. Or vice versa, I suppose.


Take a look at that invinci-rubber recipe. Seems like it'd be useful.

Use an ID scroll on the Cuil Device to figure out exactly what the CCG function does, plus any other stuff we might not know about.


Shape some great shield into a big "honeycomb" and throw half of our rose gold mana into one of the cells for safekeeping. Cut it off if that needs to be done- we'll probably be using it for something before it goes dead.

Use the focus engines for the above, I guess? Not exactly sure how those'll work.


Use the remaining rose gold mana in a teleport spell and see what happens.

"For the record, focus is used to divide spell costs now apparently, So if you wanted to do a 100 Mana Teleport, or 1000 body lengths, you could spend 2 Focus to cut that in half, 4 focus to quarter it, or 100 focus to bring it's cost down to one.  It's efficient!"

"The math could also be construed as it being a multiplier, so 1 mana and 100 focus is equal in spell power to 100 mana, 2 Mana and 50 focus is also equal to 100 Thaums, 3 Mana plus 50 focus equals 150 thaums, so on."

"The engines currently have 250 Focus stored, and produce that much per day, so long as they are fed."

"And yes, the focus is used up when it is used, those brains are about as good as sugar added children in that regard."

"Thanks to system optimizations, I could have him mark down the amount of focus left in the Main posts if you like."

I, for one, welcome our Jeanne overlords.

Although I do sort of wonder where they are getting the power for so very many of them...

Did anyone take any damage in that dungeon? I recall maybe something being flung at something and some damage occurring, but I do not recall clearly and am willing to dream(and am too lazy to check...)...

Let Harkim play with you loot while you sleep off the solo adventure.
