Description

In the year of our lord ten-ninety-five it began; a holy war. One that would last, for three-hundred years. The forces of western world bearing down upon the holy land. For power, and status and glory; all men came seeking something, drawn to this new land and its new wonders to brave the horrors that waited within. Monsters, goblins, trolls, dragons, beasts the likes of which had long been slain in the 'civil' lands. And worst of all the place, a place of nightmare, that could drive men mad, that any soldier, no matter his mettle, fears; the gates to hell; The Dungeons.

And amid this war, hidden in the storm and the slaughter, a man appears. A desserter, a bare faced recruit, a fool beyond measure. One who world change the face of the world.

And truly define; The Dungeon

Good story. It combines the real world with a fantasy one. The humans are behaving exactly how you would expect them to in such a situation and I think the story might have a bit of inspiration from when the Europeans first came to Africa the church said that blacks were a completely different humaniod species that were inferior to whites and they were made to be slaves by god which caused a massive crusade and allowed for the practice of slaves even though having slaves is frowned upon in the Bible. But in this story, there are actually different species and they seem to be quite advanced as well though in a magical sense, and till now there has been no trace of humans showing magic which is very uncommon in a lot of stories which just makes me like it more.
Though sadly I think the author discontinued this story probably because he never got any response to his story which is sad such a good story with a lot of potential which hasn't come into the spotlight at all.

Hi, I left a comment with my review, this is basically just the same thing. Great work on your story!
This is a really unique idea for a story, I've not seen a character be a dungeon before so it'll interesting to see what you do with the concept.
I'd punch up your opening summary though, it's good to be to the point, but it's so vague I didn't even realize what your story was about at first and that's a shame because it's so unique.
Your story starts with the assumption that the reader knows a lot about RPGs, Isekai, videogames, etc. When your MC says dungeon menu that makes perfect sense for a gamer or someone who watches a lot of anime, but you might want to justify and explain your character's line of thinking to help on-board any readers who might be new to this genre.
Also, I like the menu idea, but I'd explain how it looks in the world or appears to your MC. Does the menu float outside of the crystal, does it appear inside her head, does it look video-gamey?
Keep up the great work!
