“Holy Shit!” Kenta exclaims. “What is up with these powerful skills. Not that I’m complaining, but I’m practically hacking the world. Well then I guess it’s time for a feast.”
Picking up a small rock from the ground, Kenta places it his mouth, and bites. Whilst having 10x bite power is good, a rock is still a rock. With some effort and a crunching for a few minutes, Kenta grinds it into smaller, manageable chunks. Swallowing the tough rock and almost choking, Kenta feels it finally creep down his throat and fall.

“Geez! I feel like a god. I wonder does everyone have skills this powerful?” Kenta says out loud.
A tree, a rock and multiple leaves. If anyone saw me, I’m convinced I’d be locked up, and put on a strict diet of normal food. I wonder would dirt work as well?

Crouching down and scooping and handful of dirt, shovelling it into his mouth.
“Pffffffffffffttt!” Kenta noises, “I’m an idiot.”
Spitting much of it out, and swallowing only a bit, he rid his mouth of the horrible dirt.
*Ding*
---
Minerals: Eating dirt will now provide you with the nutritious minerals required to survive. Bon appetit.
---
“Yeah nah fuck off! I’m good with normal food.” Kenta replies to the new skill.
Oh, wait I still have my phone with me.
Slipping his hand into his pocket, he reaches for his phone and takes it out. Turning it on he sees that it has no signal.
“Even if I wanted to, I wouldn’t be able to contact anyone.” He says quietly.
“Guess there is no use for this anymore then.” Kenta says.
Moving the phone towards his mouth, *crunch* the sound of glass and metal components breaking, chewing it into smaller pieces, he swallows it.
“Ow.”
The glass shredded the inside of his throat, causing him pain. He lost 1 health, but gained it back a minute later.
*Ding*

“Is this thing trying to blow my head off.” Kenta retorts, “That’s so much information.”
Using his new-found knowledge of the world, he takes out his wallet and takes the money out.
“Well this is now useless.” Kenta sighs.
Eating the paper money and throwing the coins away, Kenta is disheartened by the loss of his money.
*Ding*
---
Skill gained:
Loot: Creatures when killed will drop money and rarely other items.

Kenta in shock, begins to smile. “Easy money, Easy life.”
Looking at his wallet, he again is disheartened but forges through and eats it.

“This day is just getting better and better.” Kenta says, “I guess I should start looking for a village or some place to stay.”
Back on the dirt path, he starts following it south-east. After 30 minutes of walking, Kenta hears some rustling in bushes beside the road. He stops.
*Grrrr*

The Sagas of Mortaholme
There is only one god and his name is Elduin, Dwarves are stories, magic isn’t real and the northern kingdoms are made up of raiders and the unfaithful. For two thousand years this has been the truth for the people of Alturine, the holy southern empire. For two thousand years, tradition has been leeched away to form a vicious cycle where the rich stay rich and the poor beget more poverty. Only now, when the southern realms of men are at their lowest does darkness leak back to stake its claim. Marius was raised in the northernmost reaches of Alturine under the trees of the Black Forest where remnants of the old kingdoms still linger. He never believed the stories of short mountain men, nor the old fables about mages and dragons. Yet the darkness cares little for belief and faith. He watched as wargs tore his mother and sister asunder, as the undead carried his father into their ranks and as his town was put to the torch and drowned in blood. Rage fuelled and vengeful Marius struck out against the architect of his misery only to be outmatched and left for dead.
