Why, did it hold sentimental value?

It turns out it was a lichen. I battled my way through hordes of the gooey creatures before I finally saw my sword lying next to a meteor. I rushed over to it and grabbed it with a squeal of delight! As I sat there caressing it, a lichen I must have missed crept up behind me. The evil creature attacked me! Surprised, I fumbled with the blade, trying to find the hilt. It attacked again, and alas, there went my cautery sword flying over into the beyond.

As it would not stand, I tripped again. My big head fell straight into the phantom and he died. I then picked up my Cautery Sword and dug up all the graves and fought the zombies inside. There were like a million chasing me, and I ran away. While running away, I tripped again and dropped my sword deeper into the Clockworks.

I raced to the elevator and jammed my finger into the down button. Now at Depth 7, I saw a Grimalkin chomping on my preecccciooouuuuussssss. I kicked it in the eye, then grabbed my sword and ran away. An idiot Owlite must've left a book on the floor, because I tripped on one and went sprawling. My sword flew out of my hand and landed in Moorcroft Manor below.

I reached the elevator. Finally I was going home! But fate was disinclined to let it be so. As I reached for the button that would take me home, I stepped on the sword I had affixed to my palm and went careening into the "descend" button.

I stepped off the platform. A few paces away there was a gate blocking my path. Unfortunately the sword lay beyond it in the middle of a small courtyard. I ran to the party button, placed my feet upon its surface, and the world became chaos. Jellies spawned everywhere! Polyps rained spikes upon me as I tried to dodge the attacks! But the most striking thing lay beyond all that. A massive jelly the size of 20 knights sat with a crown upon its head, and my sword floated inside of it. I struggled to recall my training in a situation like this. "Slimes are weak to...umm..Shadow!" I pulled out my nightblade and shadowtech alchemer, donned my jelly helm and mail, and leapt into the fray! I slew dozens of jellies, eviscerated countless polyps, but the royal one remained unscathed. I threw vials at it in an attempt to do it harm. Now poisoned, burnt, and cursed, the jelly quivered in rage. I swept my nightblade high in an arc. It struck the king right in the crown and knocked it off. Furious, he began to spin as jelly bits spewed everywhere. I continued to throw vials, and sneak in a hit or two when I could, when all of a sudden the creature began convulsing. It shook so hard it melted down into the ground, leaving my cautery sword behind and some random gems made of jelly. I decided to save them for later, as Brinks liked to trade for rare items. The battle was over. I had conquered, and retrieved my precious weapon. I stepped into the elevator, but I didn't see an ascend button. As it began to take me down, it dawned on me that terminal elevators don't give you a choice...

(Disregard previous post)

I just realized how the RJP doesn't come till D15-17.....so even though depth 13 is a terminal, that works fine Neon :P

ONCE
WE
REACH
DEPTH
18
(EMBERLIGHT),
LET'S
STRIVE
TO
MAKE
THIS
CHRONOLOGICAL.

i hopped on to the elevator to retrieve my wonderful sword when i was stopped by a trojan, having nothing else to defend myself i ran like heck. I found my sword among'st a group of gremlin menders.

Thisisthebestthreadever.

Sure! But the core is depth 29

As I went into emberlight, I saw my sword sitting on the elevator to the next depth. As I got on with it, the elevator malfunctioned, and decended into an unknown area. This time, however, I decided to put my sword in my bag so It won't run away again.

Seriously guys, at this rate, this sword has to be cursed.

I tripped and my sword flew out of my bag down to depth 20. I jump on a jelly and yell "Away!" as I ride my jelly to the elevator.

I entered an old city whee it was seen by no one, with my curiosity i stepped forward looking at a strange creature. I took out my spiraldex and it showed : "Devilite" Likes brownies and waffles and sandwiches cut in half. Looking at how useless this information is, I take out my Final flourish and make them eat it up , at the ending, i finally got my cautery sword and reached the elevator without any clumsiness, Suddenly The elevator started rumbling and i lost my grip and that dammed sword fell.

I stepped off the elevator and took a breath. This was getting exhausting! The stone walls around me were hung with red tapestries of velvet. I began to walk down the torch-lined hall, wondering why it was so quiet. Noticing strange statues in alcoves in the wall, I turned to inspect one of them, when all of a sudden a group of brute jellies appeared behind me! Realizing I still had my shadowtech alchemer with me, I backed away and gunned them down one by one. After making multiple right turns in the hall I began to realize I was going in a circle, or perhaps a spiral. Finally I reached a long hallway filled with crystals and spikes. Unfortunately there were a few HurKats in between the layers of crystals, and I was equipped with shadow weapons. I shot one crystal wall away and braced myself for the attack. Though I shielded as best I could, the Kats managed to wound me before I could dispatch them. There were only two more of the specters to defeat though, and my sword glinted in the torchlight behind them. I shot the crystal wall out, and shielded as the Kats lunged, but their combined attack broke my shield. I lashed out with my nightblade in a panic, and succeeded in killing one. All of a sudden, the remaining HurKat dashed behind me and blew a stream of shadow tainted spittle at my back, knocking me to the ground in a daze. Believing to have won, the ghost floated off. It's a good thing I picked up some crystal energy from the supply depot earlier! I revived myself and blasted the Kat away, stunning it in the process. I then dispatched it with ease, and sprinted to where my sword lay waiting. I grasped it tightly in my fist, and I actually did not trip over anything in my path as I stepped onto the lift. As I whispered sweet things to my blade, I neglected to hit the up button, and down I went to Basil...

I ran into the terminals and said, "Sup dog," to Basil then stabbed him with my sword. I rushed past him and almost tripped near the Shadow Lair terminal but quickly regained my balance. I turned to go down into the Firestorm Citadel, and as I pressed the button, I tripped on air yet again and my Cautery Sword fell down to Depth 24.

I am greeted by mother sprite who tells me I need to rescue 6 lost sprites.I go into a room, and I was ambushed by slags. I fight them off. After freeing 3 sprites, I see my cautery sword. I grab it. After freeing a few more sprites, I now had water and I watered the shadow fire. I cut a few lamps with my cautery sword, but one swing was too strong and it flew to the next floor. I get onto the elevator

"Can't they build air conditioners here?? Phew" Getting really frustrated by the heat i move on and find that i'm trapped in flames, I throw water balls at them and *Poof* i find my way to the top and then i go to the button and that dumb trojan comes and charges at me, But i blitz'ed him really quickly and killed those Fire shooting bots or something, I Couldn't look at my Spiraldex to see who they are. Then i finally came to a place where monsters kept on spawning but i easily defeated them by HAX BRANDISH. Then i go to a place where there is a complete maze, Uncapable of doing anything. Then i become super saiyan and fly through the top and finally got my cautery sword, When i returned normal, a blast came around me and my cautery sword fell.

After the core, Do you guys wanna do Shadow lair? xP

"Pottery gourd"??? Has someone been reading about my snarbolax problem? =O
