My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem

There was once a girl named Terra. She was a simple commoner, but she had two exceptional parents. They were powerful magicians and caretakers to the village. Terra was not a genius like her parents and always feared that she couldn’t rise up to their standards. While they were skilled Adepts, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get out of novice.

After years of disappointment as she failed to grow as a magician, she eventually took an interest in gardening instead. She liked to feel the soil in her hands, and move the earth with her own power. She liked to nurture life. Soon, she became quite to horticulturist, growing all kinds of different things. She was always happiest when she was planting seeds or picking freshly grown herbs.

One day while she was outside the village, she heard a horrifying commotion. There was a great battle going on between a dragon and some paladins. However, the dragon looked somewhat strange. It was filled with gears and all kinds of mechanical parts. The dragon was out of control, and it was heading for the village. It was there that she saw her parents rise up with all of the strongest adventurers against the dragon.

They fought a powerful battle, and throughout the entire fight, Terra felt completely useless. For all of her planting and digging in the Earth, she lacked the capacity to protect what meant the most to her. She watched as many of the people she cared the most about were killed before her eyes. When her father fell, she let out a scream and ran out onto the field.

“Terra, no!” Her mother called, but it was too late.

Terra was killed by the dragon. Of course, the mother was able to temporarily push back the dragon. Those that died were brought back using resurrection by the local priest. However, they all knew that the dragon would be back. It seemed intent on attacking their town in particular. No one truly understood why, or even where the dragon had come from. Only Terra had seen the paladins.

When Terra’s parents went to have her daughter reincarnated, Terra remembered the mechanical parts of the beast and realized that it had been built. It was so powerful, but it was ultimately manmade. Terra didn’t have the strength to protect her family. Magically, she was weak. However, she begged her mother and father to put her soul into a created being. She wanted to be powerful like them. She wanted to fight and protect them.

Her parents eventually acquiesced, and together created a beautiful Earth golem in their daughter’s image and implanted her soul in it. Terra instantly fell in love with the feeling of being one with the Earth. She didn’t just feel strong. She felt invincible. Magical feats that she had once considered impossible could now be performed with ease. She was afraid of being forced to watch her friends and family die again, but her parents wouldn’t let her leave to fight the dragon. They said her new strength wasn’t enough and it’d take the whole town to destroy it.

Knowing that the dragon was only waiting to heal before it attacked the village again, Terra decided to go out alone and battle it despite her parent’s protests. She found and attacked the powerful beast. In the end, she was defeated, and the cave the dragon had been hiding in collapsed on top of her. With it’s hiding place destroyed, the dragon left to attack the village.

Terra awoke a few hours later, digging herself out of the cave. She returned to her home, only to find the entire place was gone. The priest was gone, as were her friends and family. The dragon was finishing up the last of them as she arrived. Consumed with rage, confusion, and fear, Terra called on her Earthly powers, and buried the entire city, taking the dragon with her.

The dragon’s tomb eventually became the epicenter of a dungeon, and Terra remained a guardian, protecting the tomb from external forces. Numerous times, the church would try to come to capture the dragon and reclaim it, but the guardian always stopped them, becoming famous in the process. Eventually, the church decided to send a hero who blocked off the dungeon, starving its access to magic. With that, the dungeon and the golem began to weaken.

Hundreds of years passed, and a new town was built over the decaying dungeon. The legend of the guardian flourished, but the church never forgot the powerful dragon they had lost at the bottom of that dungeon, even though Terra had long been forgotten.

That was… until I came… brought her from that dungeon, and allowed her to finally destroy the dragon that ruined her family and protect those that she cared about most. After a few hundred years, Terra had found a family again.
