《[Royal Road Community Magazine]》Introduction to the Royal Road Community Magazine

Welcome to the [Royal Road Community Magazine]. This is a contest organized by DrBuller, The Random Cat, and Vitaly S Alexius to support RR's new and upcoming authors.
Authors were given the prompt 'And then the sun went out' and told to write a novel. Though most of the books themselves are still works in progress, this magazine compiles the first chapter of all of these books so that you, the readers, may have the advantage of easy access to the stories.
These books cover many genres from LitRPG to Classical Fantasy and even Sci-Fi. We hope that they shall have something for every reader that comes across this magazine.
The contest isn't just limited to the magazine. It has another aspect to it—the rewards. The Royal Road Community has many reviewers and authors who have shown a passion for constructive and in-depth criticism of many works.
The organizers have invited some of them to serve as judges and choose the three best books from the contestants. With the help of the RR admins, we have managed to gain some prizes for these upcoming authors.
$250 Ad campaign for the first place
$150 for the second place
$90 for the third place
We hope that this will encourage more authors to join next time because there will be a next time.
If you are interested in the next contest. Sign up here [https://forms.gle/jdd7kSSCPhmxtD5F9] and we will inform you of it at that time.

World 9
I am Nine. Here, I will give you a world grown with more love and hope than ours was. Maybe things will be better. [No longer under 4.5k word minimum; I need to write what I feel like writing. I'm sick and not employed lol.] [ Image Copyrights go to Shionty~] [ Prologue will be rewritten to better include pre-game terms. Consider this entire story to be a concept regurgitation. ]

8 219The Survivors of Loktus
Harrog, Morg, and KedAfter a sudden takeover,all the servers in Loktus has been locked, its few long term players lost and helpless in the new age of VR. Their lives are unwillingly tied, to the advent of VR and the allure of realism. But with the dawn of VR, with it comes the experience of glory and self-fulfillment.At the heart of the game is a split guild, each member on a journey seeking to find their promised dream. Ked, to find distraction in his monotonous life, dull and gray. Morg, to find her strength and what she meant to be. And Harrog, craving the support of friends. When things start to go awry in the community, they knew this game lacked the essential, flawed with the corruption of competitiveness. Each one seeking a new path, one to call their own. For their roads are linked, crossed with treachery of the forbidden word: Loktus.

8 214Glitch — Alpha [Swedish] [Svenska]
Otilia jobbar på förskolan när ett barn försvinner rakt framför ögonen på henne. Sekunder efteråt kommer barnet tillbaka, som att inget hänt. Hon tror att hon är överarbetad, men när försvinnanden börjar hända överallt och de som kommer tillbaka inte är sig själva, förstår Otilia att något, någonstans gått riktigt snett. När hon och hennes pojkvän får en idé om vad som kan vara orsaken gör de allt för att informationen ska komma fram till rätt personer. Detta är en skräck/thriller som innehåller ganska mycket blod och våld. Även mot och med barn. Om detta stör dig råder jag att du håller dig borta. Detta är också den första boken jag någonsin skrev (2015, och knappt rörd sedan dess) och var ämnad att bli en trilogi. Eftersom den bara har legat och skräpat i hårddisken under alla dessa år tänkte jag att jag lika gärna kunde släppa den här. Trevlig läsning! ********* For English readers: (Might as well add this information in English to save the lovely souls looking through our works some time) I probably won't translate this work, but I'm working on another translation within YA, if that's something you'd be interested in. This one's horror/thriller, so.. yeah. Maybe sometime in the future. Otilia works at a daycare when a child disappears. Seconds later, the child reappears, like nothing had happened. She thinks she's worked too much, but when disappearences start to happen all around the globe, she and her boyfriend realize that something has gone really, really wrong. When they get an idea about what could be the cause, no matter how unbelievable, they will do everything in their power to get the information to the right people. This was my first-ever-novel and my first gamelit story (though I had no idea that was a thing/genre at the time). This novel contains a lot of violence and blood and can be uncomfortable to read for some people. There is also some violence from, and off-screen violence to, children.
