Anyway, technically Fortune’s Fate is complete. I do have ideas for what to do if I continue it, but it’s not required—I did only intend to continue if it did decently well, and so far it hasn’t. If you want to see more Fortune’s Fate, let me know! Tell other people about it and spread the word! I could write a “season 2” if I think it’s worth it.
Don’t worry, though, the big questions of the setting will be answered in other stories. As some of my readers have already noticed, there are a few unusual threads connecting Fortune’s Fate and Wizard Space Program together…
Speaking of Wizard Space Program, you should read it! (https://gmsteward.wordpress.com/2021/06/02/wizard-space-program/) That story is ongoing and, unlike Fortune’s Fate, is set to continue for a long time. Come with me and learn about how to use magic to solve hard sci-fi space travel, and maybe learn a bit more about some deeper questions.
I am also currently looking for pre-readers willing to take a look at a Final Fantasy-based story that attempts to synthesize the settings of the main games together. I’ve written over forty chapters at this point, but I need more feedback. If you’re interested, drop by the Discord Server. (https://discord.com/invite/eTuseTh)
Until next time!

“So this is your room?” Coleus asked as she walked into the small enclosure.
“Yep!” Amaris said, flopping on her bed. “Home sweet home.”
“I was expecting something a little more…”
“Interesting?” Amaris giggled. “I wasn’t interesting when I was in this room! I’ve got to bring the interesting to it, now!” She pointed at the pile of notebooks in the corner. “I’ve been going over my notes and writing more detailed entries on all the things I encountered. If I want to do some good, it’ll help to inform other people about, well, how to deal with all these things.”

Coleus picked up a notebook that had been recently written in. “Entry 001; Freddloi…” She put it down. “You’re making one for everything?”
“I’m going to try, anyway. And for anything new I encounter! Then I’ll see if I can classify any of them together, find any common threads…”
“You’ll need a lot more than yourself to do this.” Coleus grinned. “Good thing you’ve got some friends that want to help!”
“All of you get entries too, by the way.”
Coleus paused. “You’re going to per-fern an examination of me?”
“Coleus, that was terrible.”
“I think you mean punishing.”
“Coleus!”

Dungeon Core? Nah, I Think I'll Just Get Super-Wealthy Instead
The cycle is simple enough. A Dungeon Core is born from a wayward soul. It seeks power and agency, and works to accumulate wealth to fuel its power, in turn using this power to accumulate further wealth. Inevitably, the mind is lost as desperation and ambition drive it to commit darker and darker acts. Shortly thereafter, the adventurers arrive to quell the core. This is a tale that has repeated itself countless times throughout history: all cores desire power. And yet, this core seems to have it backwards. It doesn't want to rule the world. It has no desire to enslave or conquer. No, this core doesn't want to be a warlord, a villain, or a tyrant. It wants to start a core-poration. After all, when money is power, what greater weapon is there than capitalism? Join a dungeon core that wastes an absurd amount of time and effort trying not to be evil on his journey to earn fat stacks against all odds. -This is a 'Dungeon Core' type fiction with LitRPG elements in it. The start may be fairly slow compared to the average. Expect roughly 2.5k per chapter. -I'm only a hobbyist writer. As such, there may be the occasional error and pacing may be poorly-handled. Constructive criticism is alway welcome. I'm just here to write stuff that makes my brain release the g o o d c h e m i c a l s. -I am trashy and I like monsterpeople so you can expect an awful lot of those as we get further in. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you enjoy.

Stonenanny
Infamous assassin of the past, now the next on death row. He had his chances, but loyalty towards the goal took the better of him. There was no going back now, he knew it.

Gods and Men: A litRPG Adventure
Hi, my name's Bart but you can call me whatever you want. Anyway, I don't want you to click away from this. Yeah, that's right, follow the sound of my voice and continue reading. Bet you want to know how I got stuck inside of the internet don't you. Well, it is a long and tragic tale that starts very simply. With the release of a game. Not just any game mind you, it was the release of the first ever full dive VRMMORPG, cliche sounding I know but bear with me as I thought the same thing. Any explanation on how it was released is beside the point just know that it was and I, just as any self-respecting gamer would be was extremely fucking hyped for it. The game was called 'Legend Has It' and the allure was that you would get to play as a god or spirit and interact with a vibrant world of NPC's. So I began to play, eager to experience this for myself, little did I know my life would change forever. So sit back, relax and let me regale you on how I got myself stuck in this predicament, for it starts with a boy, a game and a battle between gods. Ominous I know, let's get started.
