Who unjammed SoulNet?

MANTID FREE WORLDS
Well, we thought it might be Legion, but he's in the Sol System due to Case Omaha, so, when you get right down to it, we don't know.

TREANA'AD HIVE WORLDS
That's kind of bothering me, I have to admit.I mean, we don't know anything about this old Terran system.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
"Old." You know, it's so weird that for a Terran system three hundred years is old, but for most of us, that's a generation or two.

It's kind of weird, yeah.

RIGELLIAN SAURIAN COMPACT
Pfft, none of them got within a light week of the edge of the system. I think we'll be OK.
But, you know, we don't really have many records of the SoulNet and SolNet system.It's kind of... well... alarming that apparently the Terrans built an entire system that can just wave its hand and return the Pubvians to life.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
You know, the weird thing is, none of you remember that the Terrans managed to SUDS us up.

TREANA'AD HIVE WORLDS
And some of your people saw Treana'ad in the system?

PUBVIAN FEDERATION

Interesting.I wonder how many records got destroyed during the war and then because of the 1% Line?
Plus, well, we have to wonder: Who are we missing?
Seven species?
That are registered with a system that crashed over eight thousand years ago?
TerraSol's been keeping secrets.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
TERRASOL
Is that a surprise?
/////////
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
Not really.
So... how did we get brought back?
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
TERRASOL
I have no idea.
Remember, we didn't come online until after the Imperium collapsed. The original 'gestalts' weren't quite like us.
/////////
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
Yeah, it sounds like it's been a little exciting while I was gone.
Hey, listen, TerraSol, I get it that the Immortals are wrapped up in everything, but...
...we'd like to call The Pubvian Who Stood Alone back home.
He's got a wife and kids.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
TERRASOL
I'm going to be honest with you. I have almost no control over the Immortals.
/////////
MANTID FREE WORLDS
They're from the whole "WAR! WAR TO THE HILT!" period after the Queens attacked everyone.
That period's a little confusing.

TREANA'AD HIVE WORLDS
To use the quote: Records are spotty at best.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
Yeah, well, I'd laugh at you about the idea of a divine being except, well, you know.

The whole coming back from the dead thing?

AKLTAK FREE FLIGHT
Nothing to make a true believer out of someone than being part of a miracle.
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
PUBVIAN FEDERATION
Is it really considered miracles? Maybe some type of high technology?
---NOTHING FOLLOWS---
TREANA'AD HIVE WORLDS
To quote TerraSol again: Any sufficiently advanced technology becomes indistinguishable from magic.
Your worlds were glassed. Hell, your homeworld was nothing more than radioactive gas, howling isotopes, and blasted rock. Your entire system was trashed.

The Demon of Shadows (Hiatus)
Spartans. Genetically modified supersoldiers who participated in the spartan program, which aimed to reinforce and compensate for the humans capability of emotion in order to create the ideal supersoldier. The program itself resulting in the implantation of a limiter for a certain individual, which acted in limiting that persons emotions. Replacing it with a cold logical based calculative mindscape. The limiter aimed to support the ideal supersoldier in completing the objectives assigned to them. Be it mass slaughter, or assasination. One such man who had volunteered to participate in the program to provide data in return for a large sum of money to save a precious friend, has his life lost in battle after years of service and mindless violence. Death, however, was something he usually gave, not to receive. So when death comes to take his life, he awaits in silence, only to be dumbfounded at what is to happen next. This is the story of Nicholas Gray, the Shadow Demon. Note: Story is based on other LitRPGs found on the site such as Dante's Immortality, Necromancer and Co, etc. and on Halo for the majority of the first chapter and possibly later on down the road, I only borrowed things such as the armour and weapons used in the game itself and all credit goes to them for that kind of stuff. I will also perhaps use it to explain his backstroy to further character progression if I can. The cover photo was also a picture I found on the internet and if you wish for credit or for me to take it down just say so and i'll do it as fast as possible. I also don't have a set schedule, and this is just being used to improve my grammar and just as a hobby, nothing more. I will also appreciate feedback in regards to grammar, style, and story in general as this is the first time I have created a story apart from at school, hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!

Tales of Ordinary, Completely Unremarkable Contractors
"Where life had no value, death, sometimes, had its price. That is why the mercenaries appeared." - Artur Xerxes, in A Century of Disappointment: Memoirs of a Travelling Dwarf It's never too difficult to land contracts for a set very specialised skills in a continent teeming with werewolves, vampires, giant leopards, undead and, god forbid, elves. The difficulty comes when these contractors find themselves suffocated in the dense atmosphere of this world's rigid - and mostly unfair - rules; death, suffering and misfortune await those unwilling to sacrifice to bend these in their favour. In this non-linear plot, you will observe a scarred and deformed farm girl cashing her first bounty posters, a seemingly ordinary barmaid at a tavern in the bustling centre of a sprawling, corrupt city and an enigmatic leader of a firm specialising in dealings any other would consider suicidal. Watch them all take everything to the next level at every available opportunity, and then feel dread at the thought that this still might not be enough to halt the physical embodiment of doom about to do what it does best Please, feel free to review and comment! Any sort of feedback can help me become a better writer and write more engaging stories for you. I used to update once every 3-5 days, but this rewrite is taking much too long...I do hope it will be worth it.
