Tyler looks kinda like this now, with darker hair and the white streak, the beard would still be an aged color so keep in mind
His in story name is gonna change soon, Tyler isn't Regal enough, it will represent who he is on the inside, but not who people will see him to be
________________________________
The First thing that came to mind when I woke up was how much i'd been fainting since I came to this world. I had to have broken some sort of record by now, though I doubt i'd go collect it since i'd probably faint on the way.
My body felt heavier than I remember and I was very hungry, but in spite of that the thing that caught my attention was something I hadn't been able to do before
I could still feel the energy
It was there coursing through my veins, and it was around me in the world, I tried to reach out to it, but could only move a small amount inside of me, it was taking in more with every breath but I couldn't move any more than the tiny bit I had, I tried to move the energy outside my body but couldn't, it felt like something was blocking me, stopping me short of succeeding.
I looked around me, the camp was empty, I pushed up from the tree I was resting on and found a note beside my foot, It read;
Dear Traveler
Like all of your kind that come here, you almost destroyed my world.
That pisses me off Royally.
I know is said do whatever you wanted, but that didn't include destroying what I worked(not really) to make, so don't do It again.
I don't trust you to not be careless, I'm sure you didn't even notice the consequences of your actions, so I have created a barrier restricting the amount of power you can use, when you have enough control to break the barrier then you can use all of it. Another option would be to just wait, the barrier will slowly dissolve, You should have full control in a million years or so, by then you can blow the entire realm to atoms if you want.
I know you replaced the memories of the young boy with you, Know that you came close to tampering with free will, In a way, you actually did mess with his will, Know that the next time you tamper attempt it, I will make you enjoy a fate worse than death and make you cease to exist. At the same time.
Plus if you're going to do that, do it well to make it work, I wiped your ass this time and ensured continuity for you, this is a favor to show my favour to you, Appreciate it.
We shall speak again
-A God.
The letter shocked me, I hadn't expected any thing from the god, but from the content it seems like he'd done a bit to help me, but then again it could be simply because he doesn't want me to destroy his entertainment, either way I have him to thank, although the nerfing was sudden but not unwelcome, I had been worried over what would happen if I lost control, changing Vali's memories had been taxing, I remember the feeling of Power surging around me if I had lost control for even a second, we would have been blown up, when I arrived here I almost killed myself, now I had succeeded in aging myself considerably, losing more than two decades of life in a moment because of my foolhardiness, since I was finding control difficult then the output should be lowered to reduce the risk of my experimentation

The only thing that worried me was where he said he 'ensured continuity for me', I couldn't understand what that meant, I went through the options and the only thing that came to mind was the village, had he restored it? all the lives in it? could he?, if he could does that mean that I can too?
The questions lead me around in circles, until I was dizzy from thought, at which point it hit me that Alexander and Vali weren't around and the camp looked far better than I remembered from when I passed out, meaning there was no sign of destruction to scare off animals and the only person who could protect me was gone so anything predator passing by could make a quick snack of me. As if in concert with my thoughts the bushes moved, forcing me to get up ready to defend myself from whatever wanted a creator meal before it went on its merry way, but what walked out of the bushes were Vali and Alexander, In relief I mumbled out a greeting only for Vali's response to cause me to freeze up again
"Morning Father, you've woken up? I thought you'd actually die this time."
Father? What was going on here?, since when did I become his Father?, I was barely in my twenties and new in this world, I had never slept with anyone here, It took a moment for it to register that it could be the implanted memories I gave him, I had focused on giving him a story rather than what the story said so I had no idea what he remembered so it seems he had made me his father, meaning the blanks hadn't filled until he opened his eyes and saw me, I paused slightly while making this conclusion but though it was slight he noticed and started talking
"You don't remember? Maybe its a side effect of your experiments, still wont tell me what its about?"
Alexander, hearing his words frowned slightly and approached me, leading me away from Vali who was working on the fire which had died out long ago to prepare the rabbit he and Alexander brought back with them.
"Is it true my Lord? Do you really not remember anything?" he whispered
"No Alexander", I replied "I'm fine, Tell me everything"
His frown lightened a bit when I called his name and commanded me, I presume he was happy because I remembered him, but he should know that I am not Vali's father so maybe he is going along with it not to break what he thinks I crafted, so I asked him to explain what had happened after I passed out, but my phrasing was vague, explaining how surprised I was when he started the story
"I am your Knight My Lord, you saved my Life when I was fleeing from bad decisions and gave me a second chance so I gave you my Loyalty and Life, Vali is your Son, during our travels we found him as a baby in a small village that had been destroyed by a Wraith, he was a baby and had thus been spared, you took him in and raised him as your own, for over ten years we have wandered staying away from towns and cities as you instructed, Last night you were experimenting with your magic and tired yourself, did something go wrong? do you not remember all of this?"
I was shocked at what I was hearing, but I soon enough made the connection, that god had said he wiped my ass for me, this must be it, he had given me a foundation by changing Alexander's memories he had ensured what had been done to Vali's would never be known discovered by him undoing my work. I was thankful, but now that both of them had memories I did not, I would have to be careful

"I remember you and my...Son, but almost nothing beyond that"
After I said this the frown on his forehead became even more pronounced "We should wait and see whether they come back, we will help you any way we can...." before he could say more, my stomach growled to the smell coming from our camp fire, I dismissed his concern and walked with quick strides to the meal realising as I did that I hadn't eaten in over a week, yet aside from being ravenous and thirsty, I was fine. My mind clouded by hunger I simply told myself my weapons had provided the energy my body needed preventing deterioration
As I reached the fire I asked for a piece which I quickly downed asking for more only to have Vali and Alex looking at me like I was some freak, I was wary about why they were loolong at me like that until Vali said
"You know, Whenever I eat like that, you have Uncle Alex discipline me, Plus since when do you eat without your plate"
For some reason hearing him tell me how I would have complained about the way I ate pissed me off slightly but not wanting to break character I replied
"Come talk to me when you can use magic"
"Achk, Low blow dad, Too low."
Happy with myself for that retort I ignored their odd looks as I started to experimenting with what power I could draw, from my experiments and the issue with Vali I had learned that in order to use my power I needed to picture it clearly, I needed to imagine the energy even as I felt it, and at the same time I needed to hold a clear picture of what I wanted to happen, I could make things I was more familiar with faster but still not instantaneous so It wouldn't be good for battle as I'd said before
I tried to create snacks in my head from the picture I held of them, but when I tasted it, it was barely edible and had no taste, it simply looked like it, modifying my method and Drawing on the power in me, I pictured the most important thing I wanted in this moment. Chicken from my favourite restaurant, I pictured the taste, how it made me feel, how it smelled, how I wanted it to appear, and soon I was eating my favourite chicken, I was getting the hang of it
I looked around and saw that Alex and Vali were fighting with swords drawn, I was about to rush out thinking something was wrong when I noticed he was just training him, I watched them fight and decided to try to create something tougher, I closed my eyes and pictured a sword in my hand, how the grip would feel on a short sword, I imagined solidity and shape of a sword, I imagined how it would feel how it made contact with things, I tuned details like that and drew on my power, but I had been careless again and soon found myself struggling to hold up in the creation, I failed of course resulting in a small explosion since the object had been unstable, but I tossed it out at the last moment saving me the loss of limb, the noise drew their attention, so to hide my embarrassment I suggested we set out, acting like I had intended to get their attention that way, although their grins told me they didn't buy it
We set out Alexander in front clearing a path, in the morning he had been training Vali to hunt and trained his swordmanship, but as we journeyed he trained Vali's scouting skills and tracking asking him to identify random clues in the forest, I however walked leisurely behind them my dragon head staff in my right hand, and my rod on my waist, I had tried to get a reaction from them, because in LN most weapons have souls but there was no reaction, it seems like it doesn't have a mind it just calculates the best way to do what I made them for, so even though they may seem intelligent when saving me, but they don't have actual minds
My new body seemed fit for its age, I could follow behind the two without losing ground, and although we had walked for what Alexander told me was two hours I wasn't even winded, I may have aged but I was stronger than I had ever been, though from what I had seen I was nowhere close to Alexander but I wasn't as weak as I had been
My body's new abilities gave me room to try again in making a sword, although the energy had filled up instantly when I failed earlier I hadn't been in the mood to try again, but now I was bored and needed something to do so I attempted it, this time though my mind was clearer more focused, I noticed my dragon staff start glowing slightly, remembering the words from my dream of how the staff proves my will, it must be helping my mind focus or something so I ignored my increased focus and heightened senses to imagine a weapon, stronger than steel and sharp enough to cut through stone, providing the energy, I felt the weapon start forming in my hand, it was going smoothly so I decided to modify it a little I imagined that it would be unable to hurt any one of us three, and that only us three could use it safely
Once I willed for the conditions to be set on the sword, I felt the drain on my energy increase 4fold, I still struggled to hold on and managed to finish it falling to my feet which called attention from the two of them who rushed to my side looking worried, I waved them off and gave Vali the sword, which made him beam up and hug me so tight I thought my neck would break
Once we had rested enough for me to recover, we continued our Journey, and by the time the sun was setting we arrived at our first town.

As the future leader of the Sethian Saints, I’ve devoted my life to “redeeming” as many of the Damned (you’d call them vampires, I suppose) as I possibly can.

What should be a simple case quickly reveals layers of conspiracy I could never have imagined. Everything I thought was solid truth begins unraveling beneath a web of lies and secrets. After a lifetime of faith, for the first time I’m starting to wonder… Maybe I’m not that boy, after all.
8 133Quantum Rip: Welcome to Ethos
A special day has come, a day that Earth has awaited for oh so long. The day where they are finally going to try and run the reactor. This had been long-awaited and everyone dropped off their kids with a hint of dread. Hoping that nothing would go wrong, we know it did. Since else there would not be a story. I won't go into too much detail, but only simply explain what happened. Due to some malfunctioning and incorrect assumptions, the reactor overproduced energy. Something which should have been impossible according to all the known knowledge of a really advanced Earth. I mean, they have even started colonizing planets. Have done countless simulations and even built test stations in space. Yet now, something had gone when they did the same on earth. Bizarre, right? This malfunctioning and imploding of the reactor caused a massive explosion due to the instability of space itself. This is also what allowed the story to exist, as our main characters were all transported. The method is not known, nor why they survived. We can say it is for the story, for now... They all now find themselves on Ethos, eating a mouthful of dirt as they struggled for breath. Some find their situation horrible, others find it relaxing and peaceful. Some see death, others see life. Despair and hope, madness and sanity on an edge. What has fate given you? Welcome to Ethos, a planet of magic.Welcome to Ethos, a planet orbiting an exotic star.Ethos wishes you luck in surviving. Maybe, just maybe... You can someday go back, or not. -----------------Release rate: 3 chapters(1200-1400 words) a week.
