As I start walking down the hallway, I take my bow off my shoulder and check how it feels. The weight is the same as my old bow, but the grip feels way better, it feels perfect in my hand. The draw weight is good, I don't know what weight it is, maybe because of the stats, it feels like it should be more than my old bow. When I get to the end of the hallway, I walk away from the few people here.
After making my way round a corner, I see tiny green child that was facing the same direction as me. Readying an arrow, I draw it back in my usual stance and let it go. The arrow flew to my target and struck it in the back of it's head.
It didn't even make a sound as it puffed into smoke, leaving behind my arrow and a crystal falling to the ground. Walking over to where it was, I reach down and pick up my arrow, just as I'm about to pick up the crystal, I hear cracking. Quickly turning my head to look behind me, I see the walls and ceiling cracked open.
From the new openings came goblins and dog looking creatures, I don't remember the name of them but, I was still bewildered about what just happened. It's almost like the dungeon was always broken here, and the monsters had the perfect place for an ambush.
After all 6 goblins and 3 dog things came out, the cracks started closing. "What the hell?" As I spoke I ready an arrow, they all start rushing me. Drawing the arrow back, I aim for the closest doggo, after releasing the arrow, it struck the center of it's chest and puffed into smoke.
Readying another arrow, I aim for the next closest, which was a doggo. Releasing the arrow, it flew towards it, when it was close to the doggo, it managed to dodge and the arrow hit 1 of the goblins in the head.
I didn't have time to ready another arrow, so I took an arrow out and thrust it towards the doggo, the doggo didn't have time to dodge with how close it was and me thrusting towards it. As the arrow went into it's chest it didn't disappear right away, I tried to pull the arrow out but, it was really stuck.
The other doggo appeared on the right side of the skewered doggo, in response to it's sudden appearance, I kick the doggo in front of me with my right leg while still holding the arrow. As I kick it, I pull the arrow back and it puffed into smoke, leaving behind a tiny crystal and a blue window.
[You have Leveled up]
Do to the message I got distracted, my autism really showing itself at critical moments. I forgot about the 3rd doggo, it bites down on my left arm causing me to "Aaah" in pain and drop my bow.
"2 in Dex 2 in Strength 1 in Vit!"

I command off quickly, then focus on the doggo biting my arm, I stab with the arrow in my hand into the dogs eye repeatedly until it poofed. I was so distracted by the pain that I forgot about the goblins, by the time I realized, the goblins started attacking.
Quickly picking up my bow, I turn and run away, after getting roughly 30 feet away I'd turn around and shoot at them.
This went on for a while, after killing a few I'd run into more goblins that got added to the group, after finally finishing them off I had Leveled up again. As I retraced my steps I opened my status.

After collecting all the arrow and crystals I could find, I start counting them as I make my way back down the hallway I came in from. I found 11 crystals and I have 33 arrows, 2 arrows I found were broken and I couldn't find 5 of them.
I soon got to the top of the spiral stairs up out of the dungeon, but I have no idea where I am and I feel nervous about talking to other people, but I need to, or I won't change from who I was, always stuck in my room afraid to go near people.
Mustering my courage I walk over to a group of girls, I may have been a man before but that doesn't mean I don't know what men are like. "U-um excuse me can up point me to the guild."
1 of the girls responds. "Sure it's tha-wait you don't know where the guild is and you just came out of the dungeon?" "Y-yeah" "Why would you go in, do you even have a falna!?"
"W-when I got here, I thought the guild was at the tower, but I didn't see a sign, t-then I got dragged down to the dungeon with the crowd, i-i forgot that I needed to go to the guild because I was to excited to be here..." As I say the last part I hang my head.
"I get being excited but, you really shouldn't have done that, look your hurt and your arm is still bleeding." I feel even more embarrassed now. "Hey Heather can you heal her arm, after that I'm going to take her to the guild." "Sure, no problem Kana."
After this girl Heather heals my arm, I feel better. "T-thank you" "You're welcome, and try to be more careful." ""Y-yes ma'am" "M-ma'am? don't call me that again!" "Yes sorry!" The girl whose name seems to be kana started snickering.
"Shut up kana!" "What? Its funny." "No it's not, now leave before I smack you" "Fine party pooper." "Ok kid let's get going." "A-alright" We make our way down the street and after about 10 minutes, we arrive at a big building that has a sign that says it's the guild. "Alright kid, here's the guild. Now try not to get hurt 'kay." "Y-yes thank you for guiding me."
After she leaves, I turn and walk into the guild, there's a few people here and some behind what looks like a reception area. I walk over to the corner of the area so I can be away from most of the people, and talk to a girl whose behind the counter.
"E-excuse me, I'd like to register please, and to exchange these." I place the 11 crystals on the counter. "Alright... wait, you haven't registered and you went into the dungeon, why didn't you come here first?" I explain what happened and how I got here.
"Why didn't you just leave, you could have died, are you an idiot!" "I... I have nothing to say." I say while hanging my head. "Fine, at least tell me to have a falna." "What's a falna?" "You don't even know that? How did you even survive..."
"I-I'm good with a bow." "Sigh, Look I won't let you register until you join a familia and get a falna, wait here I'll go exchange these for you." She leaves and after she gets back, she hands me some coins. "U-um how much are these coins, I don't know their value?" "Ugh"
She explained the currency and how much each coin is worth and that this is 9,800 valis. I asked for directions to a familia and an inn to stay at. After that I left and started walking, thinking back to all the information I was given, soon there was this nagging feel that something was wrong. I stopped walking and looked around, that's when I realized. I'm lost again °~°
