Chapter 2 - This Is Just Getting Embarrassing
“Hello, are you there?”
…
“I guess caller number 1000 isn’t there anymore, we will chose another caller at random in a second. Well that’s a sham…”
Finally realizing that it was his call that was the 1000th one, James started to panic.
“Wait! Wait! I’m here, this is caller number 1000!”
“Oh hi caller 1000 you finally answer us.”
“Yes I’m sorry I just didn’t think that I would actually win so I wasn’t really paying much attention.”
Giggle
Oh man they are laughing at me. This is so embarrassing.
“It’s alright, what’s your name caller 1000?”
“My name is James Oliver.”
“Alright James, how do you feel right now that you won a VR Headset and a copy of Absolute Authority?”
“Umm… I am really… excited right now… I can’t believe I have actually won….”
I was so excited that I was slurring and stuttering my words. *sigh* This is just getting more and more embarrassing.
“I guess that is to be expected. Well congratulations James for winning a VR Headset and a copy of the game Absolute Authority!”
Afterwards GR radio brought me to a private call and I had to tell them my address and other information so they could send the VR Headset and a copy of AA once it comes out in the summer. Which is in about 2 months.

I’m so happy right now, I think I might pee my pants. This is the best thing that has happened to me since I was… 12 years old. Ah man, now I feel depressed. Sigh Whatever let’s just go to work then go home.
…
When I got home from work I heard Haley cooking dinner
“Welcome back James, how was work?”
“Same as usual, fine.”
“Hey, I was listening to GR radio station earlier today and someone named James Oliver won a VR Headset and a copy of the game AA. Was it you?”
I started laughing.
“Yeah, it was me.”
“I knew it was you! You have such good luck. After hearing that you won, I also decided to get a part-time job so by summer I’ll be able to buy a VR Headset and a copy of the game. Then we’ll be able to play together, what do you think?”
Remembering my promise to my parents I said, “Nope, I forbid you from working. You must keep your grades up so you can go to a good college.”
“What, but I want to play with you!”
Haley started tearing up. Ah man, I can’t stand looking at my little sister crying.
“Don’t worry I’ll take another part-time job and then we’ll be able to afford the merchandise. Then we can play together, how does that sound?”
“Nooo, James you always use your time for me. Why can’t I do it myself?”
“Because I care about you and I want you to do well in school without any distraction.”
Knowing that she wouldn’t be able to change my stubbornness, she finally complied.
Making a pouting face
“Fine, just don’t work too hard for me.”
I started laughing. My little sister was just too cute.
“Don’t worry, I won’t overwork myself.”
We ate dinner and then went to bed

Aoi
The sea of stars. The momentaneous lifeforms that flicker far away. Our futures — a sea brimming with light. Each and every shimmer in the starry canvas serves as one’s infinite opportunities in the vast sea of the future. On a once unremarkable day, a mysterious girl displayed powers beyond the capabilities of humans in front of many onlookers who knew only the ordinary: Powers of Ice creation. Riki, a normal young man in the midst of the crowd, was astonished to see such a spectacle, but this astonishment quickly transforms into dismay. From the appearance of calm, yet scorching blue flames, he realized the sole reason she was using powers in the first place was to only protect herself from two who have possession of powers akin to hers. And in failing to do so, the last thing Riki saw was the angst look in her eyes before she disappeared from his sight. That was the only one remaining memory he can recall. Thrusted into an organization filled with supernatural stargazers, Riki's only goal is to retake everything back: a journey to take back both his past and his future. Through this journey, it will mean to discover the underlying truths of the world. Any illustrations I use for covers and chapters are illustrations I have drawn myself unless otherwise stated.

The Verant Chronicles - Book One
The once powerful Verant Empire had been brought to its knees after seven years of civil war. The war maybe over, a new emperor maybe at the helm, but the empire remains broken. Deadly plagues, encroaching monsters, divided political loyalties only scratch the surface of the problems the empire now faces. Highwaymen make the roads unsafe, powerful wizards go unchecked and goblin hordes threaten local towns and villages. Elwin doesn’t want to spend his days as a farmer and dreams of adventure. He, his brother Rith, best friend Emerson and adopted cousin Anna, decide to go out into this world as adventurers hoping to seek fame and fortune just like in the books they read. The empire is at a crossroads as Elwin and his friends experience the aftermath of the war, they must come to terms with what it means to live in the Verant Empire as one of it's citizens. It all begins with an intriguing map sewn into cloth, written in a strange language and depicting a place that doesn’t seem to exist. Elwin and his friends decide to go to the capital city to join the adventurer’s guild and find someone who can translate the map and hopeful recognize the locations depicted. Along the way they encounter lizard creatures, goblins, former soldiers, a bard, druid and a powerful wizard who has his own eye on the map. They meet new friends and create deadly enemies. From great plains to a bustling metropolis, to a town devastated by an earthquake, their world of Gaia has a gritty realism to it and the empire is only a small part of a much large realm. It is a Romanesque world teetering on a renaissance in which Gods, gunpowder, armored knights, griffin riders and magic coexist uneasily. Elwin and his companions drink, they swear, they have sexual encounters, they make mistakes and face serious moral dilemmas at every turn. Planned out to be 30+ chapters in total including a prologue and epilogue. Chapters will be released about twice a week when possible.
