I laid on the floor tiredly I held my nail and sighed Herrah then looked at me amused and said.

Herrah: "Tired already?"

Excursion: "Yeah just let me rest for a bit and then we can continue training."

Herrah: "Actually I believe that we have completed your training. You can wield your nail with some skill and you can hold yourself pretty well."

Excursion: "Well since there is nothing else here for me can I leave Deepnest?"

Herrah: "If that is what you truly want then at least let me give you a few parting gifts."

Herrah created a long strand of silk and wrapped it around my cloak. An item description appeared before me.

[Herrah's Blessing: A special silk made by Herrah The Beast. The scent of the queen follows you.

+50 Rep with Deepnest.]

Excursion: "Thank you."

Herrah: "Oh and I have one last gift for you here take this and go through the tunnels."

Herrah handed me a folded paper she then held my hand and brought me to one of the stone carvings of her mask.

She moved it to the side revealing a tunnel I looked at her and said.

Excursion: "Thank you for everything. I don't know how to repay you."

Herrah: "You can repay me by fighting me once you return."

A bead of sweat rolled down my forehead. I then walked into the tunnel and watched as she slowly closed the door. I then walked forward and then a screen appeared before me.

[The Art Of Combat (COMPLETE!):

Description: Herrah The Beast offers to teach you all she knows about combat.

Reward: 4000 Shop Points and Weaver DNA]

In front of me a vial that had a DNA symbol spawned in front of me. 'Well, how am I supposed to [Intergrate] this?' As if reacting to my thoughts the vial was absorbed into me.

I then felt my body heating up it felt as if I had a severe fever. I looked at my wrists and saw small holes. A screen appeared in front of me I stopped looking at my wrist and paid attention to the screen instead.

[Skill Gained! Silk Creation (L.1):

Through the use of the holes on your wrist, you can create weak silk threads. The threads are currently strong enough to carry a pencil anything bigger will cause the threads to rip.]

I closed the screen and continued to move forward. The dark tunnel began to light up I then saw a huge area filled with dream catchers.

Lumaflys flew in the air lighting the room up with a soft light. One flew towards a dream catcher the dream catchers were made to look like the faces of dead weavers. Below the dream catchers, some tombstones had the name and the epiphany of the person.

I continued while thinking 'I never seen this stuff in the game. Hopefully, most of the general stuff in the game stays the same. Though I do have to admit that the sight is beautiful.' I moved forward.

I then walked and saw a tall weaver it loomed over me and looked at me curiously. I felt nervous due to the silence the weaver then spoke.

Weaver: "Such a small bug I wonder why Herrah would choose you as a child. Well, I am not supposed to dig my nose in the business of the queen."

The weaver then let me in I was then met by the sight of spools of webs. Many weavers sat down weaving webs. The weaver then looked at me and asked.

Weaver: "Can you hand over the paper?"

Excursion: "Alright."

I handed the weaver the paper it opened it and read it. The weaver then sighed and said.

Weaver: "This will take a while."

The weaver then brought me to a room and told me to stay there. I waited and waited I began to question what Herrah's parting gift was.

But I found out that it was all worth it in the end. The weaver handed me a nail it glistened underneath the light I held it in my hands as if it were my child.

I could see how sharp the nail was so I handled it with caution. I looked at the weaver and said.

Excursion: "Thank you for this nail."

Weaver: "You better not break it small one."

I walked out of the weaver's den and continued forward I then got another notification.

[SKILL GAINED! Swordsmanship(L.1):

A sword is another limb like a fist it can be used for combat and like a muscle you can strengthen your blade to heights never seen.]

'Damn the system is making quotes now?' I thought while closing the screen. The tunnel began to fill with plant life as I moved forward 'Does this tunnel lead to Fungal Wastes?' I thought as I sped up.

I walked forward and felt the soft floor I looked down and saw that I was standing on green mushrooms. I then sat down on the soft mushrooms I decided to take a little break before continuing forward.

I opened my status trying to see if there were any changes to my stats over the time that I trained.

'So it seems that all my stats changed especially my intelligence. Wouldn't I feel a change though since I assume my mind is enhancing?' I thought curiously as I prepared to leave.

A pale light shone in the darkness there was a PALE BEING he walked over the corpses of many vessels. The only thing that he thought to reassure his choices was 'No cost too great.' he moved to one of the walls and pushed his hand forward one rock fell revealing a tunnel.

'One escaped.' He thought while rubbing his chin. 'This tunnel must lead to Deepnest... I will request a meeting with Herrah as soon as possible.' He thought as he left the abyss.
