Day 72
I received good news. My dungeon core had awakened, meaning it now had a conscience. One that I could talk to. I was so happy, but decided to put that off for after I had finished this current mission.
When morning came, the cyclops leader decided to gift us with a breakfast buffet of all sorts of cyclops delicacies. It came as a surprise that he could have so much food prepared as soon as he requested for it.
Turns out one thing the cyclops valued more than the minerals they mined was food. They had several stalls with chefs, providing enough food for every single one of the villagers. The mining was simply a means to make a wide array of items ranging from armour, to weapons to even bolts and nuts.
