Year 24, Day 1: I don't know what day it is from the beginning but I think I'll start keeping track again. The soul count is at 976 Twenty-four more and my demon will be conjured. An immense demon, more powerful than all other creatures under my complete control.
Year 22: Things slowed for a bit, but not anymore, hahaha! This worked so beautifully. I am now buying these fools escape wings directly from them and they are not suspecting anything. Greed, my faithful companion… is bringing even more of these people to their death.
Year 5: I've conjured a massive crystal to store extra souls since things are going so well. This power…. I want to show people. I want to show them how wrong they were. I don't know what, but I will be stockpiling souls for something big one day….
Year 3: Checkpoints! Every 10th level I cleared to allow people to do as they please…. And it seems some have set up shops on these floors. It's so perfect. It makes things a bit easier for more adventurers, but still with plenty of challenge and valuables deeper into the cave. Seems it's a bit of a tourist attraction! HA!
Year 20: Found my old diary. How far I've come since that farmer…. The soul count reached 800 today. Plans for my 1000 soul conjuration are nearly done I guess it's just a waiting game now.
Year 7: An entire town has appeared just outside… and amusingly they've also made a marker keeping track of lost explorers. I've been keeping the death tool under 1% to keep up interest. The crystal of souls glows with just over 250 souls by now. I've begun drawing out plans for my ultimate creation... a colossal demon under my own bidding to show the world my true power. I would need 1000 souls for this however...
Year 2 Day???: I've lost track of time, but it's been at least a year since my last entry. The power of necromancy is incredible… I think somehow the potential of a creature is concentrated in the soul… which when extracted leads to immense power. Things are slowing down a bit though, I think i may actually be running out of explorers in this area? How to make the cave more accessible..
DAY 285: Finally I feel like writing another entry. Things were more than I could have hoped for for months… I've gotten at least 30 souls??? I don't know… I've lost count. I've taken to conjure new more powerful creatures…. Decided to use the energy of one complete human soul to see what i could do and made an enormous spider.... I've sent it to guard a heap of treasure.
Day 160: It's been a while since my last entry, but I need to reflect…. Tow. Two souls so far I've managed to reap from greedy explorers. They all died from creatures too…. I didn't even have to do it. It's so perfect. I need to refine the enchantment on the cave so that it is self sustaining... I want to spend my time studying and experimenting.
Day 104: Everything is finally in place and already coming together! An enchantment on the cave to make it a treasure hunt of sorts, with an option of escape…. But with the ultimate risk. The fools are willing to risk their lives for treasure, blinded by their greed. Just a simple message of a treasure cave in a nearby town and curiosity and word of mouth will take care of the rest.
Day 75: This gold and silver I'm able to create worthless to me, but valuable to others. I think I can use their greed to my advantage …. Lure them in with riches. But how to make it not an obvious trap? I need to think more about this, and soon… I've almost used up all of the power from the farmer's soul.
Day 60 : Over a month since my last entry... I've been very busy. The energy from the farmer's soul has proven more powerful than I had imagined. I can shift the walls of the cave, create gold and silver tools and weapons from rock and dust, and use the corpses of existing creatures to conjure new ones loyal to me. I must get more somehow
