I continue marching on through the maze for several hours, not stopping much at all through the process until I finally arrive at a Safe Zone. At which point I go ahead and take a break. And a dip in the little hot spring located within the Safe Zone. Because why not.

The System sure seems to like putting hot springs in the Safe Zones.

Then again, it’s good for relaxing, and they often have magical effects to them. So it makes sense.

It’s not like the System’s bizarre obsession with piranhas.

On that note, I’m rather curious about if I’ll run into any of those fishies here within this dungeon? I can’t really see myself running into any, considering that it’s a massive maze spanning across who knows how much space, but I still wouldn’t be too surprised if it managed to sneak some in.

Speaking of obsessions, now that I think about the subject, I’m glad the Architect has his form back. Since people will stop asking me if I’m collecting bats, what with me only having one bat again.

I lean back in the hot spring, having actually changed out of my armor this time around into something more comfortable to laze around in. Mostly because it’s a Safe Zone.

It is nice to actually sit back and relax once in a while.

I won’t be staying for too long, of course. Just long enough to recover my soul a good chunk.

But it’s still nice.

I rest with my arms held behind my head while looking up at the calming glowing stone shining from the ceiling of this little room set inside of the maze. With the sounds of water falling into the hot spring from a hole in the wall filling the room with ambient noise.

And right as I’m beginning to close my eyes, I hear a ringing sound while a System Notification appears in my vision.
