'Drip . . . . . . Drip . . . . . . Drip . . . . . Drip’
as the sounds of dripping water settles the girl opens her eyes and sees herself in a clear white room avoid of anything except a single golden pedestal with a human shaped hand print imprinted into it, when getting up the girl's body feels heavy while her mind is confused from the memories of her dying in the well, but now she’s here.
(Unknown): "young child, who died before her time i offer you a chance of a second life in a new world”
the girl turns around frantically looking for the person who said that but to no avail,
(Ruby): " what do you mean, reincarnation or something like that ?"
(unknown): " yes exactly, all you have to do is touch the podium in-front of you and choice what you wish to be"
the girl walks to the podium and examines it before placing a hand where there is already an indented hand-print, with this the whole podium starts glowing.
(Ruby): "e-rm OK, now what am i supposed to do no."
she is cut short as the podium's base disappears leaving a hovering plate where it was connected to the girl now with clear blue screen with writing.

congratulations you have chosen 'Aquatic heritage'
Ruby looks at where her finger pressed and sighs as she finds out it was her own fault for not looking where she was poking.
After the announcement disappears the screen changes into something like a stat screen

(Ruby): "it seems good for a start but what’s are these skill points used for?"
(Unknown): "there used to buy skills for you, to access the skill list press and hold on the skill point option"
Since Ruby has nothing else to lose she does as she is told and within 3 seconds the screen changes into a list

This Used to be About Dungeons
This Used to be About Dungeons is a comfy slice-of-life adventuring story that occasionally features dungeons. Updates Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Mostly it's about walking in the woods with a friend, looking for mushrooms to put in your soup, or haggling with the guy selling squash, or taking care of a neglected garden. It's putting some jam on shortbread biscuits. And yes, sometimes you go down into the dungeons with your friends, and you kill monsters there, or disarm traps, but when you come out, you realize you've found the perfect magic item to give to one of the local kids that helped you out when your cat was sick. Look, the dungeons are always going to be there, and sometimes you need to make a journey to one of the Spirit Gates, or make a pilgrimage with the local Cleric of Symmetry to a holy shrine. Your tour through the local dungeons can wait. You'll have rivalries with other groups, and find some dungeon eggs that need to be carefully incubated in case they turn out to be something valuable, and help a friend to build a fishing weir. There's a big world out there, a mostly tame place with lots of magic, and even more to do and see. Join me, won't you?The cover image is Morning Sunlight Effect, Eragny, by Camille Pissarro.
