To deliver messages where few have ever dared

There are few as proud as what they’ve done as an envoy
Roy has been delivering things since he was a boy
No monster has ever stopped his quest along the way
With his stamina he can keep going night and day
Everybody, young and old, was gathered in the square
The messengers had come to speak to everybody there
Ignoring all the damage in the little town they’d found
One messenger spoke with a booming voice that would resound
“Subjects of our noble kingdom, we are here today
Sharing the decree of our king, whom you must obey
As you know, the kingdom has seen peace for many years
But the gods have brought to light a number of new fears
It’s come to our attention that a boy is living here
Who has seen System Messages, which so rarely appear
You must bring him to us by the order of the king
We must bring the boy back with us now for questioning”
Log knew what what happen, but he could act in time
Even though they all knew to resist would be a crime
“I will never give my son to you or anyone
Get the heck out of my village, your job here is done”

Half the village rolled their eyes, her words were expected
But these messengers made it clear, the would be respected
Roy came forward right away to put her in her place
But he was greeted with one of Log’s big fists in his face
Both the envoys were surprised at what had just occurred
Especially the one upon the ground, whose voice was heard
“Do you dare assault an envoy sent here by your king?”
He stopped talking when he noticed his nose was bleeding
Log stepped forward and offered the messenger a hand
Roy was shocked but took the big man’s help to slowly stand
“I guess they don’t teach city boys the appraisal skill
If you need someone to show you how, I gladly will”
Roy held his nose firmly while is colleague looked in awe
They boy used their appraisal skills and gawked at what they saw
As they looked around with the skill, everybody smiled
Compared to their stats, his looked like they belonged to a child

Tales of the Implock - A LitRPG Monster Evolution Story
Nyx - A demon, weak and small, too fleeting of a creature to survive the infernal wastes in which he was born - but after multiple brushes with death, the otherwise inconsequential demon experiences a destiny-changing encounter with an unknown and eccentric god, foreign to this world. Cast from the domains of old and conspiring gods to a land of which is sheltered from the divine, beyond the reach of whence they scheme, the impling who soon would come to be known far and wide as Nyx will find a new purpose. Born of Pride, with the fires of ambition fanned and burning deep within, Nyx will grow, learn, and evolve. From a weak and pathetic impling, to that of a mighty arch demon of untold demonic power, nothing would stand in the way of his ascent. Yet, the yearn of power might not be the only thing the power-manic demon will come to desire as he will encounter others who might just matter as much to him as the ecstasy of power does. [Info]This story features a wide breadth of characters with unconventional views, morals, and actions. There is no black and white - there is only grey. In a world where strength rules, notions of good and evil blur. The protagonist of this story is not a hero. He is not human. He is a megalomaniac demon trying to find his place in the world of which he has been discarded. This novel is my first crack at making something serious, a piece of work I can be proud of. It is a part of a bigger universe that I am creating, The Aethos, and I fully intend for this story to be professionally edited, then self-published on Amazon. The novel will continue on for a long adventure, as each arc will be made into a proper book. Therefore I heavily encourage feedback and interaction. Anything to improve my story and my writing is greatly appreciated. Thank you, and welcome to the Aethos. [Schedule] - Five chapters a week. [Discord] - Here
