The Oracle felt its body twist, contort, and compress. It wasn't painful--more unfamiliar and uncomfortable, as if something was wrong. This wasn't the body it knew it had. Unceremoniously, the Oracle fell to the ground with a solid clunk. Its body felt more solid. Quite solid, in fact. One could easily describe it as chitinous, but the Oracle was unable to view itself to confirm--the dungeon lacked any sort of reflective surface.

To the others, the new form that The Oracle took was obvious. It would appear that their grand floating corpse in mesoglea had been turned into a rather large--about goblin-sized--beetle with shining black-brown chitin, six needle-like legs, and a large forked horn that had the necklace around it.

Really, it was lucky that it had the horn. Otherwise, it might have been a dung beetle. But unluckily--it seemed rather difficult for the Oracle to remove the necklace by itself. Its horns was longer than its limbs, after all.

[color=EEBD65]"Well, in any case, we likely have a few days before the hero comes back and tells others. When that happens, we'll have an unending stream of adventurers trying to shatter this crystal."[/color] Klein stated. Though, a worrisome look crossed her face. [color=EEBD65]"But we might not be able to finish digging out a full floor plan in time. But--if we're lucky--no veterans are going to appear! We'll probably only have to deal with the freshest of the newbies!"[/color]

Of course, Klein wasn't about to shirk work. No, her instincts refused that. With a hardhat--who knew where she got it--and a pickaxe as large as her, she began to help clear out the dungeon alongside the rest of the effective labourers.
