Kaz looked in the chest.

  "What the the hell is this shit?" - Kaz

  Inside the chest was a sword, a sword made completely of stone.

  "What?" - Zach

  The rest of the party went to peer into the chest.

  "A stone sword?" - Zach

  Sleth gave a puzzled expression.

  "Hahahaha, this is exactly what you deserve!" - Zach

  Kaz shot Zach an irritated look.

  "No.I.Don't, AND that is not the point." - Kaz

  "Hahahaha, phew. Fine" - Zach still giggling

  "Sigh. Any ideas?" - Kaz still irritated

  "Just take it, we have more important things to take care of right now!" - Celi shouted across the cave

  Zack and Kaz, as if struck by lighting, remembered Aldric who is still unconscious.

  "Right." - Kaz as he grabs the "Loot" and jogs back along with Zach and Sleth.

  Kaz, and Sleth both lift Aldrick up and begin leaving the dungeon, loitering around the first room as Zack casts a spell, before eventually disappearing out the entrance of the Dungeon.

  hmm, that's it... I expected more of a.. you know, more of a "I swear to destroy this dungeon for this humiliation", type reaction. How lame. On other news, the golems are perfect, exactly how I want them. On other Other news, I know what to make as my real reward for clearing the floor, but first... More Experimentation.

  So to be able to make my real reward, I need more then just stone and since I can alter stone, it is time to see just how far I can change it, though first I will start with stuff that is generally underground as well, like ores and... ores.

  lets just start with the stuff I know, like iron after all what man does not know what raw iron looks like, it has an orang-y tint to it. Maybe I don't know much about ores, but who cares, it's time to experiment.

  first I do the usual, get a stone, infuse mana, and done, well not really, I still need to se if this will work. To begin with let's use the same method for altering as before, Intent.

  I know everyone was expecting a whole, test, fail, test, fail, test, success scenario, but I am too great for that. Now I want you to add some whoosh sounds... why did you stop KEEP GOING, Oh and add some curtains too. Dun Dun Dunnn Wholla, see it has an orange-y tint, I made iron, not just because it is orange-y but because I can feel it as well, you know, dungeon stuff, abilities whatever. The fact that I know that is raw iron is all that matters.

  Now lets try to turn this raw iron into not raw iron, which will be simple. It was easy and much quicker than when I turned the stone to raw iron, well they are much closer to the same compared to stone I guess, and now I have a ball of pure iron that probably weighs a ton.

  Now how about gems, they are a type of ore aren't they, after all they are both underground, well I know more about diamonds than iron, after all they are pretty much advertised everywhere, and I have seen those pressure videos, where they try to break a diamond but the machine breaks instead, and with the internet that tells me diamonds are the toughest material on earth, or close to it.

  This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.

  Alright let's turn this iron to diamond, and if my overconfidence instantly disappearing doesn't say anything, it failed, but not completely you see what happened was, everything was going fine, until the mana in the iron began to disappear quickly, and small specks of diamond littering the outside of the iron, at which point all the mana disappeared from it, it was a mana cost type situation, I never noticed it until now because apparently turning rock to cores or iron does not cost much, but it is VERY costly to make diamond. In other words, I succeeded but failed to make the entire thing diamond.

  I guess that explains why these slain golem cores are slowly absorbing mana, they are using it to recombine and rebuild, I only noticed them grabbing the mana when the elite fell, because he absorbs it at a much Much more noticeable scale, but why did the mage not see the cores gathering mana?

  Well whatever the case, I can just chuck it up to me being a dungeon and them not being a dungeon, and wait until either someone notices the mana being absorbed or something else to prove otherwise.

  Now lets put the mana back into this iron-diamond mix, lets see if I get mana back when changing this back into a rock, I put a little extra in case I don't... I don't and I still have to spend mana to revert it back, but so what my mana well will continue to grow with each floor, each room I add to this place to it is not a big deal, I just have to worry about not making a dragon golem and I will be fine, as even now with the golems absorbing mana and this rock needing it, it has not even put a dent into my mana wallet.

  Now that I have confirmed the ores and gems, let's try wood just simple wood, nothing special. When I began to turn the rock to wood it happened in an instant, it was the fastest change, and it even cost vary little mana, compared to the previous ones anyway, is wood more closely connected to rock than iron?

  It is not, maybe wood is just easier and cheaper for it to turn into. Arg I don't know. Why is this just being complicated for not reason, whatever lets just once again chuck it up to... nature or earthly things? Whatever lets move on.

  I can continue the rest of the elements and such another time, because right now, I have everything I need, so lets just transform this into a pair of gloves, with a gem looking rock attached to the back, then I just need to change the materials from rock to iron, and those gem rocks to... ruby, these gems have no other use, they are purely aesthetic, and done, now to be fair I need to change the now gauntlets here and there so they can actually be used, as right now the entire thing is connected leaving no room for movement, in other words, they cannot be used until I figure and add the finer details as they are pretty much statues made of iron, with a ruby gen on the back of each gauntlet.
