《The Story of KED》Part 1 Formation - Chapter 22
Advertisement
Kid stood on a formation of rocks above a crowd of thousands. Speakers were set up on either side transmitting his words to thousands more.
“Today is a dark day for our rebellion.” Kid started, his voice solemn and grim, before raising it with more inspiring and uplifting ones. “We may have lost our leaders and our founder, but our mission still stands. The Empire MUST be defeated, for the sake of all those oppressed and enslaved by the Empire we must continue to fight.”
Kid’s expression grew more determined as he took a deep breath and glanced over everyone in the crowd, “I will take my father’s place, I will lead our rebellion, but I can’t do it alone, so please, will you stay with me? So together we can end the blight of the Empire.”
The crowd was silent for a moment before slowly cheers rolled through them, soon the entire crowd roared with cheers. Kid smiled, “Then get ready to move out, we have an area for a new base, and we’ll need a bit of reorganization. They’re will be challenging days ahead of us but we’ll come out stronger and ready to face the Empire.”
Bravo stood watching the crowd, his eyes red from previous weeping. He turned to look at Delta, his face twisting with anguish and guilt. Delta’s missing limbs had been replaced with cold metal ones, and half of his face was badly scarred.
Bravo heard the noise of stomping feet and turned to see Buck heading towards him. As Buck drew near he slammed a fist into Bravo’s stomach causing him to double over. He then grabbed him by the neck and smashed him up against a rock with his fist held ready to deliver another blow.
Buck’s face was twisted in anger and sorrow, “It’s your fault!’ He screamed, “If we hadn’t gone to that stupid base Mickey would still be alive.”

Bravo looked him in the eyes before glancing away in shame. Delta moved over and put a hand on Buck's arm and shook his head. Otto moved in and stared at him, “Buck?”
Buck looked from each of them and back to Bravo, then shoved away from him in disgust, “I'm leaving, don’t bother trying to find me.” He said as he stalked off.
The three boys stood there in stunned silence, the air between them thick with their grief. After a while the blond haired boy from earlier appeared. “How are you holding up?” He asked Delta.
“I’ll be fine.” Delta answered.
The man gave a sad smile and looked to the other two, “I’m sorry for your loss. It isn’t easy losing those close to you.”
The four of them sit there reflecting on past events and loved ones lost. Bravo finally looked at the man, “You never gave us your name.”
“Ah, sorry,” The young man explained, “I go by Fox.”
“Bravo.” The young boy replied.
Fox gave him a soft smile, “Well Bravo, what will you and your two friends do now.?”
Bravo looked at Delta and Otto, getting a determined look from each, before turning back to Fox, his eyes filled with resolve, “We’re going to fight.”

8 385Steamforged Sorcery [A Steampunk LitRPG]
This is a fantasy story in a steampunk setting, not a sci-fi. The Great War ravaged the face of the earth many years ago. In the years that passed, the world rebuilt, mixing machinery and magic to form something new. Great blimps took to the sky, belching steam and smoke as metal cities sprouted like weeds below. Angel, a talented mage, scours the desert endlessly in search of lost knowledge. When it unexpectedly falls into his hands, he quickly comes to realize that the world is far larger – and far more deadly – than he ever could have predicted. But no amount of danger is going to keep Angel from seeking out greater strength and traveling the world, claiming all the greatest treasure that it has to offer. To most, the desert is a dangerous threat to be feared. To Angel, it’s a land of opportunity, waiting to be exploited. Steamforged Sorcery is, as the title suggests, a LitRPG Steampunk story with heavy focus on magic and scenery. The main character starts out relatively strong (but far from overpowered) but will eventually grow in strength to incredible levels. It is moderately paced and does not progress at ridiculous speeds. Release Schedule: 1,500 words daily Monday-Friday

WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.
