NOVEL WEB Cycle 31 (2)
Dear Diary,
Well, I made a cake for whatever was above the raptors, but it didn’t get there. Turns out raptors love blackberry. Who knew! Well, raptors like everything except lasagna, apparently. But they really like blackberry. Or at least the leader of the pack does.
I gave them other stuff, like cheese and pizza and meatballs. But they kept sniffing me until I handed over the blackberry cake. I mean, I’m not complaining. Now we know what they like, so I can just keep making that for them.
Anyways, that means we got to Floor 89 without any food offering. But that’s ok, because we didn’t really see anything to give food to.
Floor 89 is a swamp. Swamps have two things: mosquitoes and quicksand. The mosquitoes are a very slightly less annoying version of the flying ants. They’re not all that bad, really. But suffocating in quicksand is a new, horrible way to die. I imagine it’s like drowning mixed with being crushed by a boa constrictor, but worse. We don’t know how far the quicksand goes, so tomorrow Mika is going to freeze us a path through it. Hopefully it works. If it doesn’t, we’ll have to find some kind of plank to lay over the quicksand.
Mostly I hope nothing else lives on that floor. I suspect something even worse is up there, like how the ants share the floor with spiders and the giant worm thing. But who knows.
I have to make a bunch of blackberry stuff for the raptors tomorrow and all week. Oh! Maybe I should put blackberries into meatballs! I wonder if I can make some kind of blackberry cheese sauce, and put it over meatballs.
Time to experiment!
Goodnight, Dungeon!
