Description: [edit] [history]

An ancient, dreadfully powerful dungeon core that had once been sealed away to slowly fade into oblivion is revived by a chance encounter, though in a much reduced state.

A temple monk on her way home for a vacation is distracted into exploring a newly born dungeon due to the cuteness of its rabbit monsters, leading to an entirely unexpected chain of events.

A kitsune whose death caused a goddess to pity her fate and revive her as a reincarnated dungeon.

Thrown together by a twist of luck, these three navigate a complex relationship and build their own rules to live by. But there are those who are not pleased to see the return of this ancient dungeon.

The primary romantic relationship is poly and mutual.

Mild content warning: Occasional swearing, "fade to black", Public Displays of Affection, typical fantasy violence (no unnecessary gore), rare instances of "disturbing content", and never in detail.

The release schedule is currently every Sunday & Thursday

Revision underway! Completed through Chapter 32
