《Origin of death》Chapter 16: Celebration
Advertisement
Talnar is in his parents' tent. They help him prepare for his 'awakening' celebration. Everyone will gather and drink, sing, dance and do many more interesting things. He, on the other hand, just before midnight, will have to sit on a big chair positioned a little bit higher than the other chairs and when midnight breaks out then he will 'awaken' and get his two classes.
Usually, such a ceremony takes place in a family tent with the closest members of the family, but everyone is celebrating because Talnar has been chosen by one of the four supreme gods and creator of his and his parent's race.
His mother comes up to him holding the clothes he will have to wear during the celebration. Wearing it was extremely difficult because of the amount of decoration that makes it quite delicate. Fortunately, thanks to the help he manages to put on the outfit, and then goes to take a look in the mirror.
"Wow..."
He is impressed with my appearance. Talnar's normally dishevelled long white hair is nicely styled, is dressed in black and white robes which symbolizes his belonging to the god we worship.
While looking at his reflection his father enters the tent.
"Everybody ready?"
Seeing her husband is already ready, Arien leads the way towards the middle of the camp.
On one side there are tables and benches on which guests sit. On the other side, there is an empty space where guests can dance and have fun. In the middle, on the elevation, there is a primitive throne on which Talnar is supposed to sit at midnight.
Together they go and sit on one of the free tables. Then Oron gets up and goes to bring something to eat and drink while Arien goes looking for her friends leaving Talnar alone.

Suddenly someone shouts behind him.
"Hey"
He turns around and notices Jomo, the chosen one of the supreme of the order.
Jomo is a dragon and like almost every other representative of this race, he can change his form to a humanoid. He is a bit taller than Talnar, has golden reptile eyes and short red hair. He is older than him and had his ceremony two years ago.
"Hi Jomo"
He comes close and sits next to him.
"Nervous?"
Hearing this question Talnar gets tense and answers.
"A little bit"
Jomo puts a hand on his shoulder, smiles gently and says.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
We both start looking at the stars in the sky and enjoy the views. After a few minutes, someone gets close to them from behind and yells.
"Here you are!"
Hearing the voice they turn around and look behind them.
In front of their eyes stands a treant. Her name is Neva. The one who was chosen by the goddess of nature. She is the highest and oldest of those three. She comes up and sits on another side of the table.
"So what were you doing?"
Jomo answers her question.
"Nothing important"
They start talking about various topics and a while later Talnar's parents come back.
His father put a big food plate in the middle of the table and along with Arien sat at the table.
For the next few hours, they talk and eat. Until finally a group consisting of the undead, treant and the dragon walked up to their table
"Hello, can we join you?"
Oron agrees and introduces everyone while pointing at them with his hand.
."Yes, of course. My name is Oron, this is my wife Arien, this is my son Talnar and those two are his friends Jomo and Neva."

Pyton nods his head and introduces his group.
"Thank you. My name is Pyton, and this is Amil and Ari. We came today from the wilderness."
The newly arrived group sat next to them taking all the remaining seats at the table. They started talking to Talnar and the others and every now and then they looked in his and other chosen direction. At first, they thought it was just a coincidence, but later on, they realized that it doesn't seem like that. they feel some strange connection with them. It's like they've known each other for a long time and only Talnar's parents seem not to feel it.
Knowing that something is not right Talnar thinks about how to get to the bottom of this.
'Something is wrong with them. We will ask them later, but not in front of my parents... After the ceremony will be the best moment.'
He and the other two look at each other and understand that they share the same idea.
"And now the moment we are all waiting for"
Talnar turns around and sees a high priest walking in the middle of the square.
"Talnar, boy, come to me."
He leaves the table and approaches the priest. Priest signals him to sit on the throne while continuing his speech.
"Today we will witness the awakening of the chosen of the supreme god of death."
After a moment midnight comes and with it the beginning of his story.
[Class Warrior was assigned]
[Class Phantom was assigned]
[Quest completed]

[Reward: Experience]
[Warrior class advanced to level 2]

The boy's parents cried. All of them know that he will achieve great feats, but only the three beings sitting nearby them knew how great. His destiny is to save mortals from five abominations and eventually become a god himself.
Suddenly Pyton turned around, looks at the sky in the distance and says.
"They arrived"

Trashy story ! v1.5
Author: I've made alot of mistakes in my plot, I've relied on force to do it naught. Where does quality go? When you give up patience for speed though? This is a story I will begin, Hopefully this will make your hearts sing! There's not much I do that is right, But I will enjoy writing it this night. So those of you who will cheer me on, Or not i'll be happy to sing you a song! A song in text! Wish me luck next! - authors (singular) Trashy story v1.5: starto! Serious synopsis: Hey everyone it's the author here (Not my character named "Author" or "Also author") I'd like to introduce to you my new book "Trashy story"! So you're proboaly wondering what this "Trashy story" is about, well wait no longer I shall tell you! (Or try to sound cool as I tell you nothing.) This story will be written entirely in poem style assides from the author notes (Which are in itself a out of character in character commentary of the story.) With this type of format I hope to talk about things which are commonly overlooked in novels, and or things which are blaringly obvious yet often ignored! In the earlier version of this novel I had gone over things such as how the conditions of a fantasy world may force bandits to do what they do, and also the effects of killing a leader will cause! Even if the leader is a tyrant a power vacuum makes life a living hell, and often more of a living hell than before. This story was written on qidian as well but I felt like I was rushing too much on the writing (As qidian is use to crazy release rates) so I hope to port it over to here as I rewrite problamatic chapters. Said chapters may be updated on qidian once I find a good foothold to improve the plot again. Well thankyou for reading this far down on the synopsis, I'm not sure why you've read so far down but thankyou! I hope you will enjoy "Trashy story" v1.5 as much as I enjoyed writing it! "Trashy story" v1.0 : 46 chapters (24 not counting side storys) "Trashy story" v1.5: rewrite starting at chapter 35 (21 not counting side storys) You may be wondering why half of the novels publication so far (as of writing this synopsis) is side story (Bleh... filler!) Well that is because the side stories are where I develop most of the world building. (They really are only called side stories because they follow the side characters and antagonist) Note: The origional novel (V.1) can be found on webnovel... Howeverrrrr I will reupload every "Okay" chapter up to the breakoff point here as well. Proof of me moving over to royal road (And not shamelessly stealing chapters) can be found in the latest chapter "Temporary haitus: Partial rewrite") V.1: Link V.1.5: You're looking at it (Well atleast I think you are!)

Tales from the Triverse
Tales from the Triverse is part detective drama, part fantasy adventure and part space opera. I’m influenced by the likes of Iain M Banks, Isaac Asimov and ND Stevenson and work including The Wire and Gotham Central. It begins with an incident two hundred years ago which crashed three parallel universes together. Portals open up in 18th century London, sending England down a very different path. We pick up events in the 1970s, with the Metropolitan Police having established a new department to handle portal-related criminal activity. The story is about intolerance, immigration, multiculturalism and power. It’s about what happens when incompatible viewpoints are weaponised to seed discontent, and the efforts of some to create a fairer world. In the tradition of the best science fiction, fantasy and crime fiction, I’m using the setting to examine themes that matter to me in the real world. Who is it for?If you like science fiction or fantasy, or a mix of both, this is for you. It’s my first foray into crime fiction, but I hope if you’re a fan that you’ll enjoy yourself - especially if you’re looking for something a bit different. I write fiction that is optimistic, progressive and empathetic. Bad things can happen to good people in the stories, but the overall arc tends to be hopeful. Note that if it were a movie, Tales from the Triverse would be a 15 certificate in the UK.

Purple Flames

She would activate the alien mothership's self-destruct, act like she was making a heroic sacrifice, then use her powers to create a wormhole to escape at the last second.

But instead of arriving back on Earth as planned, she somehow ended up in a prison cell in the distant world of Garnoth. And as soon as she blasted her way out, she was drawn into a fight between a desperate Resistance and the power-hungry arch-mage Daraken. And they weren't the only forces interested in her unknown power... ********** Updates approximately once a week. Discord server link: https://discord.gg/nE2cDVm
