Dana, Princess Siti, Liya, Saintess Rumia, Kat and Veronica, they all look at me and my cute doll angrily. Fie continues to clean himself without a care in the world, while Calypso continues to play with Fie's whiskers without a care in the world. That's not fair, I did it to help you, so

"Be angry with her too!" [Diana]

"Yes! That's right!" [Doll Diana]

"Huh? Why me!?" [Calypso]

"Because we did this for you!" [Diana]

"For you!" [Doll Diana]

"Just explain first" [Dana]

"Let me explain" [Hanging Treant]

"Mr. Hanging Treant! Thank goodness you're here!" [Diana]

Since Mr. Hanging Treant is here, I'm sure they'll listen to him and get a better understanding of what's going on. 

This dungeon was created naturally, but its nature was influenced by the fairy queen Titania. While the method remains uncertain, Mr. Hanging Treant and Master Merlin came to the following conclusion after investigating the dungeon with us the other day

"Wait! Master Merlin!? She investigated the dungeon before!?" [Princess Siti].

"She did it with me and Sister Khamisah the other day" [Diana].

"Then why did she act like nothing happened?" [Princess Siti]

"Because she wanted to test how efficient this method of ours will be" [Doll Diana]

"Huh?" [Kat]

"Please, allow me to continue first" [Hanging Treant]

"Right. I'm sorry for stopping you so suddenly. Please continue" [Princess Siti]

The reason they think the nature of the dungeon has changed is because of Calypso. This dungeon allows her to become stronger just by living in it, as she can continue to absorb the abundance of Mirage Element in the dungeon, making this dungeon basically her home. A shared home, as there's a certain boss inside the dungeon that she has to share this home with, and that boss will be

"Hello. I'm the boss dungeon. I'm a naturally occurring doll, but I've been further altered and modified by Master Merlin and Master Diana" [Doll Diana].

"That's a surprise, but it's no wonder you're strong. You're the boss of this dungeon."[Kat]

"How come you are so obedient?" [Liya]

"I can feel Master Merlin and Diana's altering your soul, is that it?" [Princess Siti]

"That, and because I wanted to" [Doll Diana].

"Pardon?" [Princess Siti]

"That means even when a witch and her apprentice temper with her, she still retains a will of her own, hence her befriending Diana and the other, am I correct?" [Saintess Rumia]

"That is true. It's lonely here at first, but now I have tons of friends" [Doll Diana].

It's just a chance finding at that time. We found it together when the doll didn't even have any features. Even in that empty state, she's strong, but not as strong as Khamisah. When we beat her, I can tell that her soul is crying, so I started to befriend her. Master Merlin then suggested that we upgrade it further, and one thing led to another, Master Merlin and I modified this doll based on me, and now it's getting stronger every day. 

"Okay, I understand that part, but what about you? And what about the efficient method?" [Dana]

"That has something to do with turning me into a world tree" [Hanging Treant].

"I'm sorry, did I hear that right?" [Saintess Rumia]

"Is that even possible?" [Liya]

"It's still vague. Maybe it is possible, but most likely not, but by planting my root in this dungeon, I can also grow stronger and stronger, and one day I might become the world tree. This process usually takes hundreds or thousands of years, but the witch suggested that I keep filling this dungeon with adventurers and knights, luring them in and keeping them safe, so that they will keep coming back to feed this dungeon with their mana" [Hanging Treant].

Calypso wanted to make a new world tree so that new fairies could be born from it, and when she mentioned it to the Hanging Treant, it was suggested, but

"Do you have permission from the elves?" [Saintess Rumia]

"No, we are planning to get one" [Diana].

"Please do, let's not create unnecessary conflict" [Saintess Rumia].

"But wouldn't they be happy to see another World Tree born?" [Kat]

"Would they? I can see a thousand reasons why they wouldn't be happy" [Princess Siti].

"True. I may not have an elf friend, but it's like saying, "Hey, look, we can create something sacred. That will definitely be like a provocation" [Veronica].

"I'm well aware of that, I used to be an elven saint myself" [Hanging Treant].

(But he does it anyway... I have to agree. The threat of THE THING is also a consideration, and if we can have more methods to fight it, the better) [Saintess Rumia]

They all seem to understand what is happening, which is good.

"So we are here today just as a test of sorts..." [Dana]

"Seems like it. Tell me, did Queen Amleth know about this as well?" [Liya]

"She did, and Master Merlin said she got her approval as well" [Diana].

"Thank you for giving us your mana and vitality, hope you come again!" [Doll Diana]

"That is... But this dungeon is quite lucrative, and if I can get out alive every time I go in, that would actually be the best" [Kat].

"True, but I also have to be stingy. I don't want to give away too much material like Foxian said, otherwise I might get in trouble myself" [Doll Diana].

"Foxian? Guild Master Akela knows about this as well!" [Kat]

"She did" [Diana]

"Who else knows about this?" [Princess Siti]

"Nar and Sas. That's all, and now all of you as well" [Diana]

"Why didn't you tell me before? I feel betrayed!" [Dana]

"Because I trusted you! I wanted your input the most on how to get adventurers to keep visiting this dungeon, so I didn't tell you... I'm sorry..." [Diana]

"I'm sorry too, Sister Dana..." [Doll Diana]

"My goodness... Fine. I forgive you both" [Dana]

"Yay!" [Diana, Doll Diana]

(She really is weak when it comes to Diana... and now Doll Diana as well) [Liya]

Needless to say, they promised to keep this a secret
