《The Sudden Rise of the Magic Continent》Chapter 1: A Confusing New Place
Advertisement
(sentences in between 2 "-" are the thoughts of someone other than the main character)
I wake up to the sound of thunder in the distance in a place I've never seen before... Actually, do I remember being anywhere? To wake up in what seems to be a forest is really weird. I should look around to find out what this place is like and try to find out where I actually am.
As I walk through the forest, I find what seems to be a town in the middle of it. There are Elves and even what seems to be Monkey Beastmen. An Elf who looks really young but looks very dignified is now walking up to me... I wonder what he wants.
"Are you perhaps the visitor we were expecting?" The Elf says to me.
"A visitor? No, I don't think so? I don't remember much..." I say as I try to remember how I got here.
"I see. May I ask your name? Mine is Alberic"
"Oh, um, it's Aki," I say, vaguely remembering my name
"Alright then, if you could follow me, please." -She's not the one, but I can't leave her out like this. She seems to be one of the new spawns-
"Everyone seems really busy... Is this because of the visitor?" As I look around, everyone seems to be doing something
"Oh yes, then you're most certainly one of the new spawns. As you should know, many of us have been awakening from the earth recently. I myself have been awakened recently, but since I was the first of the elves, I'm currently trying to make it so that everyone in the forest awakens peacefully and easily. I'm working with the first of the Monkeen and Treants to try and make everything as easy as it can be. But the fact that you have no memories at all, or not even know who we're waiting for, is strange as you should at least have a vague idea of what we should be prepared for."

"If this is all so important, then why are you helping me? You're explaining all of this important stuff and wasting this important time? Shouldn't you be trying to make everything faster?"
"You misunderstand. You're also newly awakened, aren't you? You are one of the people I need to be helping. You seem to be one of the Orunian as well, so you're important in itself."
"An Orunian? What's that?"
"Orunians are made to be similar in a sense to each of the beings on Gloranela. They are all different and very rare; you are only the 6th one heard of in Terra's Domain."
"The sixth one? Am I truly that rare?" I look deep in thought as I wonder why I'm like this.
"Here, sit here please, I'll be back soon," He says as he shows me to a seat inside of one of the larger trees.
"Oh uh yeah, I can wait" As soon as he leaves, a large black screen appears in front of my face.
"This is... Weird..." I start tapping the screen and see a bunch of random tabs. The one that truly caught my eye, though, was the status.
Name: Aki
Level: 5
Power: 50
Health: 100
Magic Energy: 100
Compatible Magical Elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Electricity, Holy, Unholy, Space, Time
Skills: Minor Flame I, Water Manifestation I, Rock Manipulation I, Minor Gust I
Special Skills: Analyzation I, Status Screen
"Is this the status screen? It must be because I don't know what else it could be, and since it's a unique skill, does it mean that only I can have it?" Aki thinks out loud as she wonders what it all means
Alberic walks back into the room after about 30 minutes, looking a bit frantic.

"What's wrong? Is something happening?" Aki asks, not understanding why the Elf looks unnerved for seemingly no reason.
"Terra is coming. We knew we were going to have a visitor, but for it to be someone like Terra? Terra is far too important for us to accept properly. Could you please give us aid in setting everything up?"
"Who is Terra? You said something about 'Terra's Domain' earlier. Is he that important?"
"Terra is one of the four guardians who protect these lands. The world we know of and are allowed to venture was split up between them, so they guard a quarter each... To think you didn't even know that much."
"Have you ever traveled further than Terra's Domain?"
"There hasn't been time to do so, we know because we appeared with that knowledge beforehand. I believe it to be natural knowledge so that we can make our lives more stable far easier."
"Well, I can help. I'm probably wasting your time by making you answer my questions."
"Yeah, that's about right... Well, come with me," Alberic says as he guides Aki out.

Resurgent [Hiatus]
Resurgent is the story of a man by the name of Marcus Diamandis and he begins his journey in an unexpected location, the skies. On the day of Armageddon, or later commonly referred to as Integration, Marcus begins his fall that hopefully preludes an eventual rise to greatness. Humanity has become stagnant in its ideals, no one quite knows what would happen if it were forced to change. Cataclysm now arrives in modern times, can we adapt, or will mankind fail its greatest test? ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ Resurgent is a story that will include LitRPG and GameLit systems. Will not include any Harem elements whatsoever. This story is my first posted attempt at writing an episodic piece of literature and constructive criticism is always welcomed. The New World and The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound heavily inspired me so if you haven't read them please go give them a read!
8 122How to Avoid Death on a Daily Basis

A group of young Brits wake up in a strange, fantastical land with creatures from myth and legend. They are given archaic weapons they don't know how to use and told to do their best. Convinced it has to be some kind of virtual reality RPG, all the people summoned form parties and set off on their adventures, leaving behind the people nobody wants in their group.

8 218A Standard Model of Magic
The world ended, and magic came back. The part our parents didn't expect, was for Science to break on reentry. Twenty years after the apocalypse, with our nations dismantled and hidden continents unearthed, a new generation has grown up in the wreckage of 21st century civilization. For us, the fantastic is at our doorstep and we have had no choice but to fight back. Meanwhile, the laws of nature bend and break at the whims of immortal gods, all of which are now dead and none of which are content to stay that way. But we cannot afford to give up. We are the stewards of a rewritten century, in which a little luck and a whole lot of magic might make anything possible – maybe even a world better than the one we lost. A Standard Model of Magic is a complete overhaul of my old story A Storm in the Fall. I'm afraid I was unhappy with the LitRPG elements, which I don't mind reading, but I apparently loath writing. Sorry. Once I'd made the choice to decouple the story from the OF that inspired it and reconfigure the magic system to my satisfaction, little of the original plotline survived. I will be salvaging most of my original characters, and I will keep some elements which are endemic to the genre, but that is all. I don't have an update schedule which I can commit to yet, but I will try to maintain a weekly pace.(This is currently RoyalRoad exclusive, since I'm lazy. If you find it posted elsewhere, it wasn't me and it wasn't with permission) If you're interested, I've set up a discord.
8 198Vampire and the Implausible Cube
Valerie finds herself stranded in a fantastical land of magic, with unknown dangers and no possessions aside from a mysterious, Rubiks Cube-looking silver object that follows her around no matter where her adventures take her and proves to be an invaluable, albeit stoic travel companion. However, things aren't as simple as they first seem, as she soon discovers a newfound thirst for blood, a society built upon strength to combat the oddly intelligent and cunning amalgamations of various creatures cropping out of the woodwork, as well as a hatred for all creatures magical; including her. Author's Note: Just a fun little side project that popped up in my mind after reading a bunch of isekai and wanting to write my own. If there turns out to be demand, however, then I shall turn this into my main project and deliver content more regularly.
