《WAKIAGARU》The First Spear
Advertisement
As his soldiers loaded more ryo no me into the catapults, Hukama watched the palace from on high. The roof of the machiya—a small local dwelling—atop the hill was the perfect vantage point.
The palace burned, and the wall was taking heavy damage. His forces were nearly ready to occupy the structure entirely to make sure the Emperor would not force an extended siege. Sneaking a few dozen of his best samurai into the palace had been easy. But now he needed to take the building.
Bellow in the warrens, a massive riot still raged—a distraction for his soldiers to move about unhindered for a time.
The warning gongs hadn’t even being struck yet. His agents had been successful, then. My strategy requires the utmost swiftness to be successful.
The six catapults were nearly ready to hurl more balls of the fiery shot across the dwellings of Yukai City and into the palace wall, at the City Barracks and on various other targets vital to the defense of the city.
Their contact in the city was delivering more of the infusion on short notice just in case they didn’t have enough to breach the wall.
But they did.
Behind Hukama, his engineers filled their ryo no me shot with the substance to help burn their targets to cinders.
Thunder echoed across the city from the west. They had no catapults in that direction. Hukama swept his gaze across Yukai City, saw the explosion and the fire, followed by a plume of smoke.
It seems they’ve had an accident dealing with the compound he had contracted for...
A random dwelling near the guild quarter. Hukama, the legendary general and First Spear of Daixen shrugged. He had already procured what he needed from the Unseen Watchers, a gang guild that cared nothing for the city it operated in, so long as they were paid. They were nothing more than a virus—a plague of this city. Once he took control, he would have to remove many of these unwanted, discordant elements that made nations so weak—so easy to take by conquest if one had good spies.

“Continue the bombardment,” he commanded of his generals. “We must leave this location soon before the Mikuma Imperial forces realize what is happening.”

Project TheirWorld: Book Two - Tatterskin
**IMPORTANT: Because I am trying to reconcile some of the consistancy issues due to unexpected changes in how I've decided to write the story, this story is to be renamed/reordered. I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) is now to be concidered as Book One of Tatterskin. Tatterskin will contiune without real inturruption, though "Book Two" is really going to be the rest of the series with multiple volumes. Sorry guys! I've gone and brought the chaos of my real life into the storyverse T-T. ----- Dassah Graydon was just another human woman looking for adventure in her life when she moved to the academic floating continent, the Enclave. But while she wanted to escape her mundane reality, she quickly discovers that her life there – with the exception of all the crazy aliens and the unusual setting – was no different than her life on Earth had been. After spending a couple of months getting used to the place, she finally got the chance to play the popular new VRMMORPG, TheirWorld. As she is drawn deeper and deeper into the game, however, she begins to realize that her in-game life is far more connected to the happenings of reality than she could have imagined. Finding herself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens her life and the lives of the people around her, Dassah must decide whether she allows herself to be a puppet, or she finds the determination to become the master of her own fate. This is a Project: TheirWorld story, and there is a prequel story, The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) but if I am doing my job, you won't need to have read that to enjoy this one. ____ The story will usually update once a week, sometime on Fridays JST. The updates on Royal Road L will be about 1 chapter behind my main WordPress site found here: Project: TheirWorld. This will change, as the WordPress site will have holiday releases and RRL will not. Thank you for reading, and the support! :) ____
