《Observations of the Nameless》Barriers
Advertisement
There are a lot of barriers between people, at least the ones I recognize. The biggest one is language. Who decided that people should talk to each other but never specified how? There’s all these people in the world and they couldn’t figure out some common language before it was too late?
I guess that’s being a bit unfair to that one person. Still though, language sucks. People say things they don’t mean and mean things they don’t say all the time. That seems like a terrible system for making sure you’re understood and understanding others. Ever heard of lying? Geniuses, the lot of them. Pretty sure there’s a movie about that. Can’t imagine it was any good. Mostly because I never watched it, so I don’t have much to go off of.
Like, if people just said what they wanted without trying to mask their intentions, everything would be so much easier. Imagine just going into a coffee shop and just shouting out if anybody wanted to be friends? I should do that some time. I’ve already done the first half.
All those bad high school movies would be so short if the main character told the bully to just be fruitful and multiply, but not in those words…
How simple would it be to unite the world if people didn’t hide behind their words? Easier than making friends in a coffee shop, probably. I wouldn’t know, I haven’t done either yet.

Keagan Murray wakes up in the dirt with no clue who he is. Someone has stolen his Skills and with them, his memories. What’s worse is he’s in Trash Heap, a tiny penal colony in the middle of the wilderness, with no way of returning to civilization. Now he must venture into the untamed forest and deal with disreputable characters just to survive. And perhaps some day he’ll even find a clue to his past.
8 159An old man's new world
An old man on his deathbed has many regrets, but the one thing he regrets the most is not fulfilling his sense of adventure. What would he do if given a new change? I always try to make the characters as realistic as possible by giving them lives of their own and motivations for doing different actions, but because I'm a new author, I might miss a few things, so please, feel free to tell me if something feels fake or unrealistic. I also write as a hobby, and my motivation tends to go up and down. If I'm not feeling motivated, I won't force myself to write. This means that the upload schedule might have abrupt gaps and sudden spurts.

"All right, boys and girls, quit sucking your ma's teats. It's high time we bloody earn our paychecks!" Born in times of turmoil, orphaned at a young age, and raised amongst rowdy sellswords, young Reinhardt Edelstein joined the mercenary trade as well when he grew up. When misfortune finally caught up with them, and the mercenary company he had been part of fell into an ambush and was decimated, he survived by chance, along with a few others. Then he found the baton of responsibility passed on to his hand, as the adopted nephew of the late captain. Stuck behind enemy lines, with only the tattered remnants of the once proud company around him, he strived to do his best, to rebuild the company to its former glory...
