Every city has one: some hole in the wall that refuses to die, kept on life support by a few crusty locals. The kind of place tourists avoid like the plague, probably because they're convinced they'll actually contract the plague, simply by walking through the front door. Cheap beer, watered down drinks and, for some inexplicable reason, the world's most amazing chicken wings.

A dive bar.

The decades roll on, neighborhoods rise and fall, populations ebb and flow, but the dive bar abides. The dive bar also has a secret. Were someone to pay close enough attention, they might just notice that the dive bar only seems to attract a certain kind of person.

And every so often, that person doesn't come back out.

Within the dive bar's weathered walls, order and chaos are in residence, kept in a state of constant tension by the few who deign to enter.

Divers.

As the Earth continues to turn and people go about their busy days, they do so ignorant of the war that has raged on for centuries, just down the street. A war for control of the world around them.

A war for their very souls.

Dungeons and Divebars is a collection of novellas exploring the depths of the seediest dive bars in existence... and the horrors that lie within. It's progression fantasy, litrpg, urban fantasy, and classic dungeon diving tales all rolled into one. And the stakes could not possibly be higher. So sidle on up to the bar, give Bob your order, and settle in for one hell of a night.

Gamleon's Tail    ~ Welcome to the worlds of :  Within ~ by Cicada3300
14 parts Ongoing Mature
I wrote this for EVERYONE. An introduction to my universe.Best for slow , attentive , close reading. Stick with it. When you get to the action parts (which doesn't take long ) you should be invested enough to want to unravel the mystery and enjoy its intrigue.. The flood is raging. A terrifying, heartless mountain of water, swallowing the world in inevitable finality. The tunnel networks? Of course, that won't save them. The forests? Like leaves in a breeze. The lookout towers and trade hubs? Gone. Washed clean. What does it take to take everything? Every home, every name, every last trace of what once was. And who would do such a thing? And how? No one has ever seen anything that would make them believe in magic. Gamleon is the first to see and to survive. His mind near collapse under the strain, his heart broken. He runs. What would you do? What could anyone do? A world of mythological beasts and medieval men, where Gorgon hordes slither beneath the earth, clawing for metal, for power, for anything. But they come for your children. Opulent kings wage wars over things no one can even recall, blind to the coming obliteration. There is an isolated, forgotten place. A cavern, magnificent and vast, older than civilization. A place where the weird and the unwanted might ride out the cataclysm. In this special place, something incredible, cut off from the outside, lurks. Something... you won't be ready for or ever expect. Our weary, world-worn adventurer is a paradox: terrifying perhaps, yet tender, grotesque but with a quiet dignity bordering on noble, intimidating and innately intelligent. With no choice but to navigate the unexpected Gorgon tunnels, his inner thoughts help us all learn how to persist and triumph in the face of impossible odds. Join him and be swept away as he reconciles never-before-seen innovations and insurmountable challenges. Dignity and hope. Self-respect and courage.

*Note: This is a First Person POV story of the game Undertale. I ripped everything from this off of that game. I am completely unoriginal. The main character wakes up in the middle of an underground world, filled with danger. The path to escape is a very dangerous one. Only the most determined can get through. How will this turn out?
