《Witch Tier》Chapter 31: The Days to Come
Advertisement
DREAM SEQUENCE:
The setting is a nightmare. The sky is blood red but the stars are visible. Rivers of blood run through a great valley of corpses.
Loc is shirtless, beaten, and bloody and running through a swamp of blood in the valley. An angry mob of skinless townsfolk that are each bleeding profusely are chasing after him. They’re carrying torches and pitchforks.
Mob: After him! Hang the traitor!
Loc halts as he reaches the edge of a waterfall of blood. He’s panting. He looks back. The mob is closing in. He hesitates, then takes the plunge.
He’s carried down the waterfall and lands in a rather somber lake of blood. He swims to the shore and looks back at the mob that angrily stares at him from up top the waterfall. They’re not pursuing him.
Loc continues to traverse the land but freezes upon seeing something more hideous than his surroundings. The dead bodies of Aldrog, Gidget, Gideon, Tamar, Seth, Phoebe, Joshua, Smoke, and Bolt are spread about before him. They’re horrifically maimed but still quite recognizable.
Loc looks completely horrified. He backs away, rejecting what he’s seeing by shaking his head. A violent cold wind blows and a multitude of people crying out Loc’s name are heard in the wind. Loc flinches and turns to the direction it came from.
His draw drops upon seeing a blood covered Rivna hanging on a cross with the Soul Crystal fractured. Her forearms are gone and her legs from the knees down are missing.
Loc: Rivna!
Loc runs to her. Rivna slowly looks up. She utters a sentence to him buts it’s completely inaudible.
Before Loc can reach her she and the cross crumble to dust. Loc looks shocked and completely helpless. The winds grow more violent and Loc continuously hears a multitude of voices. He kneels, palming his temples from the intensity of the voices.

Old Man’s Voice: The Queen of Queens has stripped us of her mercy.
Woman’s Voice: Our beautiful world…
Man’s Voice: We have no food. No water…
Rivna’s Voice: This is the true world. The illusion has been broken.
Woman’s Voice: It’s time for your castration, Big Brother!
Loc: Stop!
Heldine’s Voice: I’ve killed her! I’ve killed her! I’ve killed her! I’ve finally killed her!
Man’s Voice: Who did this to us. Who is to blame?
Arran’s Voice: I will not rest until our great mother from beyond the stars is worshiped by all.
Woman’s Voice: It’s those two!
Tamar’s Voice: Please, stop this Loc! This crazy ambition of yours will destroy everything!
Old Woman’s Voice: The Iron Witch and the Warlock!
Aldrog’s Voice: Forgive me Your Majesty, in the end we all failed…
Man’s Voice: Kill them! Kill them to end this nightmare!
Loc: Make it stop!
Gideon’s Voice: My time has come, Nephew.
Queen of Queen’s Voice: Your kingdom never was, foolish boy.
Old Man’s Voice: The Queen of Queens has stripped us of her mercy.
Loc: Just stop!
The wind ceases, and Loc looks surprised that it suddenly stopped. He looks up and sees a tall woman fully clad in heavy jet black armor. She’s wearing a helmet that hides her face and a large black witch hat. She has a hand extended to Loc to help him up. He reluctantly takes her hand.
Loc: Who are you?
The Iron Witch: Your second chance.
Loc: My second chance?
An unseen tall figure cocks a large black pistol and holds it to the back of Loc’s head. He halts and raises his hands.
Loc: What is this?!
The Iron Witch: Only when you perish will the world be saved.
Loc: Wait--
The gun is fired…
----------------------------------------------------------
BACK TO PRESENT:
Loc awakes in a shoddy bed in a small underground candlelit room. He’s in a cold sweat.

Lady Agatha: Did you sleep well?
Startled, Loc looks to the corner of the room and sees a very old Iarlan Veguhl woman sitting in a rocking chair knitting. She’s blind and wearing a great big witch hat.
Upon sensing that she’s no immediate threat, Loc takes a deep breath and rubs his head.
Loc: No. Not at all.
Agatha chuckles.
Lady Agatha: Good.
Loc notices Hannah sitting in a chair and leaning on his bed asleep.
Lady Agatha: She never left your side for a second. She may be a rascal but deep down she has a very tender heart.
Loc: Who are you?
She smiles while continuing to knit.
Lady Agatha: I’m just an old relic from the past. One could even say the last living Soul Pact.

(Re)Install
After his death, Garry, AKA Gaz, is summoned by a nameless goddess to another world and tasked with a very important mission, the main characters sets out to travel around in search of a way to accomplish his objectives and live happily ever after.The catch? The mission is to save the same goddess, who've been sealed away for all eternity in who knows where. Having little to no energy left, she was unable to create a decent blessing, so Gaz is left with a weak body in a savage world that he knows nothing about.Also, did i mention he wasn't reincarnated as a human? Neither as a beast? Well...His actual body might actually not be that bad. As long as he survives the first day, of course.-------------Okay, some of you might know from Insania Online, some don't, so might as well explain it here. This is a Re: (ish) style story, with a Scifi (ish) setting and some fantasy (ish) assets (precision is overrated). This is kind of a side project I will work while I take a break from insania.This is a crazy idea i had thanks to a certain game's trailer, and decided to write it. Even if it starts fairly serious, it will probably have a lot of wacky comedy, so don't say you haven't been warned and don't try to take it too seriously. Really. If you are expecting a dramatic and heavy story, this is very probably not what you want(who knows? I'm just starting it...).

Smiling master
Aki always knew death would be his get away ticket for something, but he was mostly expecting an endless struggle against demonic captors in hell, but he can certainly do with netting a job as a dungeon master in another world. He'd likely have tried saving random people long before 'that' if he actually thought it was even a possibility too!

⚠️ MATURE⚠️ This story contains strong use of language and mature scenes. If you are offended easily do not read. ________________________________________________I felt something tug my hair behind my ear and I snuggled my head deeper into the pillow. Suddenly I felt someone straddle my back. I gasped and my eyes flew open as I swung my hands forward to push myself up and whatever was on me off. I groaned as I fell back down to the heavy weight, someone was on top of me. The person grabbed my hands and held them above my head with a firm grip. "P-please let go of m-me" I choked out, tears starting to run down my face from fear. "You are so beautiful." A male voice whispered in my ear as he grabbed my bottom, squeezing it.I screamed but got cut off as he put his hand over my mouth, flipping my body around. He was now sitting on my middle section. He was wearing all black, I could tell that it was the man from earlier. He has a cloth mask on, opening for his eyes and mouth only. Cold brown eyes met my green ones and I whined in fear as he stayed deadly still, studying my face.My shirt had rode up past my belly button during the struggle and his eyes raked over my showing skin, lust filling them. I struggled, trying to move my legs and arms to get away but he was too strong. "If you scream again, I'm going to kill you." He growled. I groaned in response, tears running down my face. He slowly released his hand from my mouth and reached into his pocket pulling out a knife and zip tie. I figured that if I didn't scream I would want to die if this man took me so I did what I had to do. I let out a bloodcurdling scream loud enough to wake up the whole entire neighborhood.
