《TITANIA: Goddess of War》Chapter 8: World of mortals
Advertisement
As Loki emerged from the Bifrost, Heimdall stood away from the control panel and glared at him. Loki gave him a weird look and smiled.
"What troubles you, Gatekeeper?"
"I turned my gaze upon you in Jotunheim but could neither see nor hear you. You were shrouded from me, like the Frost Giants who entered this Realm." Heimdall was watching him closely, his suspicion slowly coming true.
"Perhaps your senses have weakened after your many years of service."
"Or perhaps someone has found a way to hide that which he does not wish me to see." Gatekeeper implied. Loki just smiled.
"You have great power, Heimdall. Tell me, did Odin ever fear you?" he was joking with him.
"No."
"And why is that?" Loki asked.
"Because he is my King, and I'm sworn to obey him," answered Heimdall, still not leaving his eyes from God of mischief.
"Exactly. Just as you're sworn to obey me now. Yes? A beat."
"Yes."
"Good. Then you will open the Bifrost to no one until I have undone what my brother has started." With those words said, Loki headed out of the Observatory. Heimdall was staring at him, knowing how furious he will be when he'll find out that Neilrosa is no longer on Asgard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neilrosa was sitting with Thor and doctor Selvig in a pub, those two have already ordered a few beers and shots of whiskey. She had just an iced lemonade, alcohol never suited her.
"Seems Darcy's a terrible inter, but a talented hacker."
"Yeah, she saved our asses there although I need to meet her first," Princess chuckled.
"Thank you for what you've done." Thor raised his cup of beer to Selvig.
"Don't thank me. I only did it for Jane." Jane? Neilrosa frowned her eyebrows and looked at Thor.
"Are you in love with her?" both Neilrosa and Selvig nearly choked on their drinks.
"Of course not! Jane's like a daughter to me. Her father and I taught at university together. A good man, but he never listened." This hit Thor hard. He knew exactly what Selvig means.
"Neither did I." Neilrosa set her cup on the bar in front of her and leaned back in her chair. Selvig looked with interest on Thor.

"You know, you don't need to beat yourself up for anything." She started, gaining the attention of both men.
"All of us have our flaws, we just need to learn from them. I can sense and now I heard you care really deeply for Jane, doctor Selvig. There's no need to worry, Thor means no harm, to anyone." Thor nodded eagerly.
"Good. If that's the case, then I'll buy you one more drink and you'll leave town tonight." Selvig turned to him.
"I had it all backwards. I had it all wrong." Thor sank. For the doctor, this was a different Thor than he saw before.
"But first, you two need to tell me how did you meet, although I can guess. Did he fall from the sky?" Neilrosa asked and sipped from her lemonade. The two men looked at each other.
"How did you-" Selvig started but she interrupted him.
"I think saying that I'm something like him is weird. I know you didn't believe him when he said he is a God of Thunder and from Asgard so I'm not sure if you would believe me. Let's start with names then. I'm Neilrosa," she extended her hand to the doctor. He took it hesitantly and shook it.
"So, how did you meet?" her purple eyes were flickering between them.
"Actually they hit me with their... how do you call it? Ah, car," Thor laughed.
"We were observing an anomaly when he appeared and we hit him. Then we brought him to the hospital, but he escaped and we hit him, again. Now he is staying with us in an abandoned dinner at the end of the city." Neilrosa was trying not to laugh, she could imagine it very clearly.
"But I'm glad he ran into you, you seem like a nice man," she smiled.
"Oh, and sorry for all the confusion, I'm Thor's childhood friend, we grow up together. I was looking for him because his father banished him and I need him to come home." Now Selvig was really confused, he didn't know if to believe what this woman in front of him is saying or not.
"For the first time in my life, I have no idea what I'm supposed to do," Thor's head fallen.
"Anyone who's ever going to find their way in this world has to start by admitting they don't know where the hell they are." Both Thor and Neilrosa nodded. A drunk man wobbled to them.

"Hey, I know you, man..." He was one of the town citizens who saw Thor with Jane, Darcy and Selvig in the diner in the city.
"You were in the diner with that hot girl. And now I see you have another one right here." He moved to Neilrosa and put his arms around her shoulders.
"I wouldn't mind those two doing a little research on me." He tried to be sexy but failed miserably. Thor started to get annoyed and the same went for Neilrosa and Selvig.
"I have no quarrel with you. But she's a lade and one is sitting with us right now too. You should be more respectful."
"And you should shut the hell up, princess." Doctor and princess looked at Thor, worried that he would lose his temper, but he remained unaffected.
"I will not fight you."
"Then it'll be easy to kick your ass." Before any of the men could react, Neilrosa slid down from the chair, grabbed the drunk man's arm, twisted it behind his back and his body collided with the bar table.
"Try to touch me again and you won't write with this hand ever again." She growled into his ear. The man nodded quickly and she released him. He glanced at her, totally scared and ran off god knows where.
As she adjusted her jacket and hair, looked at the two men watching her with surprise, they burst into a loud laugh and ordered another round of drinks.
It was a good idea not to drink, that flashed through Neilrosa's mind when she was driving two drunk men to the abandoned diner at the end of the city as Selvig said. She learned to drive during the WW2, Peggy taught her. Thor and Selvig sit at the back, singing some Norwegian folk song and pretty badly. It was hard to get the directions from the doctor but in five minutes, Neilrosa already parked the car near the diner and tried to get men out of the car. Thor had an excellent tolerance towards alcohol, so he picked Selvig up and with one of his hands around Thor's shoulder, he helped him towards Jane's trailer.
Jane was laying down in her trailer, trying to read. A lot of boxes of pizza and various books were laying all around the trailer. Right then a loud bang brought her back to reality and she jumped to open the door to relieve a very drunk Slevig slung over Thor's shoulder and a red-headed woman behind them.
"Erik!" she exclaimed.
"Is he all right?" she asked Thor.
"He's fine. Not injured at all." The woman behind him speaker. She smiled at Jane and extended her hand to Jane.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your evening, miss...?" she stopped not sure how to call Jane.
"Jane Foster," Jane replied with a small smile.
"Miss Foster. I'm Neilrosa, Thor's childhood friend and, well that's for a long talking, but let's say I'm something like he claims to be," she chuckled nervously. Jane was a bit surprised as now she had taken in how the woman looks like. Her hair wasn't red, it was the colour of flame, falling her back and her eyes were purple, beautiful galaxy purple.
Thor meanwhile entered Jane's trailer with Selvig.
"What happened?" Jane turned her attention to them.
"We drank, we fought. he made his ancestors proud." Thor chuckled and looked at Jane, not sure where to put Selvig.
"Put him on the bed," she gestured towards one at the back of the trailer. Selvig laughed and slurred something as that he still doesn't believe Thor is a God of Thunder, Thor just laughed and patted his cheek.
"These are your chambers?" He looked around picked a sock off the floor. Jane quickly snatched it from him.
"Can we go outside?" She asked him and both of them went outside to sit by a fire in blankets. Neilrosa excused herself, she didn't want to interrupt anything as she saw some connection between those two. She stood in the shadow of the trailer, her eyes trained on both Jane and Thor. She was happy that maybe Thor finally has found someone close to him, someone, to love. A small smile found a place on her face as she looks up to the sky, knowing that Heimdall can see all of it.

VOID EMPIRE: IMPERIAL MAGE
Eric Grayson was just a welder by day and fantasy junky by night. His free days were spent camping in the woods and reading. When he falls through a crack in the foundation of reality his life is going to get a lot more interesting. Making his way through the sea of chaos, he finds himself, with a little help from a Goddess, in a new universe, on a new planet. The exalted mage lords of the Empire have ruled for over two thousand years. Keeping the Empire safe from the tribes of beast kin and the void monsters that break into reality. A world on the edge of the great universal tree, a bastion against the ever-encroaching void. The realm of the dead and souls is far. The touch of the Gods and Goddesses is faint and growing weaker. This is a Litrpg / Gamelit where I am seeking to explore the idea where an Empire like Rome made it to the Edwardian/Victorian period. With all the decadence and kinky/bdsm stuff, Rome was known for, intact and evolved. Think pride and prejudice but the complete opposite of prudish. This story contains explicit scenes. This is not a collect slave women to bang story. This is not an endless struggle grind. The character is OP. The character is figuring out how to adapt his power to the world. Last, I will point out, glass is five hundred time sharper than steel and can be sharpened down to just a single atom in thickness. Please leave a review and rating as it helps me improve my writing. Feedback is always appreciated; I hope you enjoy. I am working on my grammar as well and hopefully it will improve, through editing. As It has never been a strong suit of mine. chapters Sat 7 pm... until the series is complete.

Neophyte
Blurb:Layla lives in a multi-planar universe where gods and superhuman immortals roam. Immortality is possible but only to those with money, power, and connections. Layla isn't worried about that, though. She's just trying to pay the rent. Robinhood style, of course. Atom is the self-proclaimed Mantle of Procrastination and good times. He Ascended from Earth a thousand years ago. A millennial NEET shut-in at heart, he enjoys video games and holo tube while spending time with his female companion, who does all his deific duties for him. Join the crazy adventures of a lazy God and his unwilling follower's rise to power. The first few Arc's of the story is an Academy arc. I think you will know if you like the story by chapter 6 as the first chapter may be confusing (or sucks, idk I like it so whatever)._________ The story is a slow burn. If you are expecting quick progression, I suggest looking at some of the other great stories on RR. I personally enjoy and Patreon several, but that's not what I'm writing. That might hurt my chances of trending anytime soon (or ever lol), but that is fine with me. I'm sure some of you will appreciate the story as much as I do in writing it. FAQ: The story has elements of xianxia and wuxia along with some GameLit (at some point). The story takes place in an age where tech has advanced to a complete integration with magic. Imagine everything running on mana or qi instead of electricity, and you will get the idea. There will be crafting but not until later in the story. It's actually a core plot elemenet for Layla. I'm writing this story for my own enjoyment and as a way of relieving stress in my life. I'm not a pro author or a naturally gifted wordsmith. I don't have beta readers and every chapter posted is a first draft. I'm still learning and will strive to improve as I continue the story. If you don't speak up I can't work on improving as an author. I welcome any criticism and encouragement that would help me become a better writer. I can't believe you read this far down! ;) Enjoy the story. --Cover Credit-- Cover art (emblem) by: Oxana Che Cover Design by: Miblart

Authority [Dropped]
Notice: Updates are set to every other day. Or to be precise every 2-3 days. Thank you! "The theory of evolution was introduced by Charles Darwin and it baffled the world. Going by the same principle as Darwin's theory all living organisms by nature are capable of evolution to an extent. Evolution in games are always just limited however this is not a game but rather reality. However the only thing that stagnates the whole premise of evolution is the environment. Environment is always the number one factor of evolution. Going by that logic. Stimulation for survival is needed to evolve and better suit the environment. " - Titus

SWTOR: The Alpha Legacy - Alexandra 'Under the Black'
This was the first character backstory and first full story in The Old Republic era after 'Project Alpha: A Summary: 'Old Republic to Current Operational Era'. This one was actually written much later. Several of the full stories were done and there was a need to introduce the Mother of several of the main characters. Much later on I started a timeline and this seemed to fit nowhere else, but right after the introduction story: Alexandra De'nabre lost everything on one of the moons of Felucia.
