《Indomitable Marvel》29 - New Path

The next day Theoric headed back to the Kronans dwelling after spending the night out alone, too tired to make his way back or care about what he perceived to be a bullshit mission.
Seeing Vott come to greet him after being alerted from the watch guards, he prepared himself for another round of yelling.
Vott- "Kronans told us what you were up to, but wouldn't tell us the location since you said you didn't wish to disturbed, tell me what I should think about all this?"
Theoric felt something was a little off with how calm he was, a grin soon appeared on his face when he thought of something sure to disturb him,- "Well how about instead of worrying about the mission or ranks, why don't we instead think of new things, like how the Asgards have all but abandoned you and your men, I'll ask you what I first did when we met, do you wish to change your lot in life?"
Vott surprisingly stayed calm- "You said you would ask me that after the war."
Theoric- "Times change, so are you willing to answer now or do I have to ask you once the war is over?"
Vott thinking about what the Kronans told him, how Theoric was blessed by Gaea, a Goddess every Asgardian knows but is never seen except during crucial moments. Allied with Yggdrasil she helped create the nine realms as they are now.
She is considered to be the mother of life while Yggdrasil is the foundation in which life takes root.
He had great respect as most do for such great and mystical beings who are said to be the very reason for their existence.
Vott concluding answered- "Yes, yes I do wish to change my lot in life, what do you have in mind?"

Theoric surprised again by his hairy friend couldn't respond for a few minutes before breaking out into a grin- "Is that so, well then it's pretty simple, we are going to go for the throat of the Rock Trolls... well I'm going to go for the throat, along the way we'll be commandeering a ship and get you guys off this planet and away from all this."
Vott anger started to surface, no way was he going to run away like a coward while a man he's started to see as a friend fights alone- "What in blazes are you talking about? We are not going to run and leave a man behind."
Theoric feeling touched tried to reason with him- "Don't think of it as leaving me behind, this is strategy, I take out the usurper Ulik restoring the previous king while you take the chance to escape Asgard, I will use the merit from his death to stop them from following you through Heimdall's ability, but if you stay and help then not only will most of us die, but even with the achievement they will never willingly allow you to go, it's much simpler to agree not to chase then it is too willing let you go."
Vott arguing back- "And if you die, they chase and kill all of us!" he shouted.
Theoric- "While that is true, I ask you to believe in me, I will get revenge for my previous death and I will do it alone, this is important to me, I have to do this alone."
Vott hearing he died wondered if he heard right- "Did you say revenge for your previous death?"
Theoric gave a nod looking serious- "That's right, he killed me once already, it was a betrayal set up by people of Asgard, I'm sure that we are both being targeted together on this very mission, I only survived my death due to the timely actions of Gaea."

Though he didn't explain how Loki was in on it, thinking back how it was strange that trained men who survived the harshes of conditions were suddenly overcome with the hunger to eat berries without knowing if they were edible or not.
Clenching his fists tightly while promising that if he's given another chance he'll make sure Loki pays for everything.
Vott eyes went wide- "So it's true what the Kronans said, your a chosen one of Gaea."
Theoric thinking on it said- "Well I suppose I am in a way, she did save me and bless me with these abilities."
Vott choked hearing his reply, coughing up a fit, this bastard supposes after being saved and given power, what an ass, he thought.
Vott coming to terms- "Alright, if Gaea can trust you I can certainly trust you, but once we leave where do we go?"
Theoric grinned- "Ever heard of a place called Earth or better known as Midgard? I'm going to brief you on everything you need to do while you're there, well that's assuming you wish to follow me, if not I have other options for you."
Vott- "Midgard huh?"

In another unknown place, Gaea who was in an unfixed every changing form could be seen talking to a tree aspect of Yggdrasil- "So did you plan for all this to happen? how much have you done to get things to set up this way?"
Yggdrasil spoke with a raspy slow sounding gender-neutral voice- "I simply did what must be done."
Gaea laughed- "Did you now, you're telling me it wasn't for selfish reasons?"
Yggdrasil playing coy asked- "Whatever do you mean?"
Gaea huffed- "Oh please, try telling me you're not planning to have him fix your problem."
Yggdrasil denying it- "Your thinking too much."
Gaea silently glared at Yggdrasil in her unique way.
Yggdrasil giving in- "If he wishes to help me out along the way who am I to deny him."
Gaea exclaimed- "I knew it! but your playing with fire you know that right? This is messing with timelines, unknown things could happen. It will be dangerous if any higher beings discover whats going on, especially if the living tribunal finds out."
Yggdrasil played the innocent card again much to Gaea's annoyance- "I simply gave the last pure soul a way back from extinction."
Gaea wanted to retort that Yggdrasil could have just blessed and brought him up independently but knew the tree only ever wanted to work with women in which it had more affinity with because of their life-giving capabilities, allowing them to benefit more from the blessings, which was why Yggdrasil cleverly blessed the wife instead, so Theoric would also feel indebted to it for her gifts.

Caught in the middle and framed for treason, a historian will exercise magic long lost in order to carve his mark on the world.
8 189Real Real Life
Jamie was having a bad day, until he was crushed to death by a beer delivery truck and things became a whole lot worse.

Which is the real world? Is he in a game? A simulation? And who actually is his online friend Barry. Inspired greatly by the MUDs of the 90s, many of the aspects will be familiar to those who experienced the joys of text adventures, MUSHs, MURPEs, MUDs, modern MMORPGs or just some good old fashioned cybering with a 17/f/Cali who was anything but. This humorous, harem LitRPG story is the first story by experienced author Jamie Haremie under this pen name. Jamie has previously written horror and romance (sometimes together!) as well as tons and tons of riveting TPS reports. (Late 90s cultural reference? CHECK). Any and all comments and suggestions welcome!
8 230St. Charles and the Children from the Sun
This story is a tale classic in its tragedy, about the foibles of Man and how he destroys the things he loves, all to prove himself superior over the Universe. In a quest to defeat Hilter during Wold War II, Winston Churchill and Franklin Deleanor Roosevelt barter with a race of serpents who come from outer space. There are a few inconveniences for the leaders of the West when dealing with these creatures. For one, they can't even talk to them, for the aliens 'speak' by manipulating light. But in exchange for the knowledge of how to build an atomic bomb, all the monsters want from us is to live in peace at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. What could go wrong with that? * * * This story is my entry in The Royal Road Community Magazine Contest * * *
