《The Exiles return》Chapter 9: A sudden interruption
Advertisement
As soon as the Human ship descended, i couldn’t help but marvel at the sleek, white vessel. Aglevis told me that they sent their small sized ship to descend to our world, as the ‘mothership’ as he called it, was so huge that it would flatten this city.
I was flanked by Aila to my right, and Aglevis, who had returned to Zenith ahead the Humans, to my left. I can tell that they both hide their amazement in the stoic faces of theirs. I am wearing a ceremonial dress, worn by my ancestors. While both Aila and Aglevis wore ceremonial military uniforms, with Aglevis wearing a dark green Captain’s uniform, and Aila wearing a royal guard uniform.
Both of them were wearing ceremonial military uniforms. With Aila's uniform belonging to the royal guard, and Aglevis' belonging to the navy.
After a while though, 4 people exited the ship and made their way to us. Two were wearing black business suits, while the other two wore military uniforms, with one being more formal than the other. Possibly belonging to a different branch.
The lead one in the group, who is a bit skinny, and has a thin mustache, extended his arms to me, to which I responded by giving a handshake.
"Your majesty, we are the Terran delegates. We come in peace, and it is nice to meet you." The man finally said.
"Yes, it is my pleasure to finally meet the humans of Terra," I said in response, "perhaps we should go to a more fitting venue?"
The man nodded.
I escorted them to a carriage that would take them to the fort, and noticed that the more formal wearing officer sent the less formal wearing soldier back to their ship. He then turned to me and smiled. I rode a separate carriage, leading them toward the fort.

We began to make our way to the fort and to the meeting room which was prepared a night prior. Upon entering though, the apostle, Miss Ira, was already seated in one of the seats next to my seat. A maid guided the Humans to their seats and I took a seat as well. Aglevis sat to my right, while Ira to my left. Aila stood behind me.
After everyone was seated, I stood up and began our introductions.
“First of all, you might already know of me, I am the current Queen of the Elven realm, Merula Zenith. It is my pleasure to have the esteemed diplomats of the Terran Republic who have taken their time to meet with us in person,” I said as I bowed slightly.
Sitting to the right of me, Aglevis bowed. While, Ira and Aila remained stoic.
"You've met Sir Aglevis before, he is the one I tasked to escort your ship and guide it to our world," I said, "And this is Miss Ira, an apostle to the Goddess Lady Terra." I introduced Aglevis and Ira to the Humans.
I finished my introductions and it is their turn now. I'm not gonna lie, but I've been waiting for this moment since the Humans agreed to send a diplomatic mission to us. It's fascinating on how life could prosper outside the holy realm. And more fascinating is the fact that there are humans in the great void!
The man with the thin mustache stood up and bowed, "It is our greatest pleasure to meet you, your majesty. Our president sends her greetings, it is a shame that she could not join us here," He said as he looked around the room, "I am Ambassador George Hawk, the one heading this diplomatic mission, along with Miss Madelyn and Sir Gonzalez,"

So he's the leader of this diplomatic mission huh? Though there are a lot of questions on which I'd like to get answers, we need to remain professional and proceed slowly.
"We also brought a gift for your majesty," The ambassador said as he gestured to the horned girl for something, soon he walked up to me and showed a small wooden box.
How could I say this? The box was clean, it had the words 'MADE ON EARTH' in small letters in the bottom right of the lid.
He pulled the lid open to reveal a small form of musket. However, it is unlikely to be a musket, as it is made out of metal and ornate gold. It has the words 'ZENITH' engraved in its barrel.
"This is a gift from our civilization to yours, your majesty. We hope you liked it, "he said.
"I have a question," I looked up at him, "what is this?" I asked.
"This is a ceremonial Pistol made especially on Terra, we usually gift them to other heads of state." The ambassador replied.
"What is a pistol-" I asked again before the doors burst open.
"Your majesty!" Said a voice coming from the door.
Aila quickly stood beside me, ready to protect me with all her strength. While Ira became wide eyed, and took out her weapon.
The humans meanwhile, we're just standing there looking at the direction of the door.
After I recollected myself, I looked at the person who stormed here only to find the ambassador of the beastmen realm angrily eyeing the human ambassador.
"Your majesty! You must arrest these animals! They are about to manipulate you!" The beastmen said.

The Power of Ten: Book One: Sama Rantha, and Book Two: The Far Future
(Author's Note: If you're wondering about the views, it's +1.8 million more on Webnovel, its original home. Updated daily starting Dec. 26, 2018, and continued with Book Three.) Some time ago, a planes-traveling archmage made up a video game to train some people on the planet Earth for the catastrophe he knew was coming. That game was the Power of Ten. The gods seized this opportunity to take the templates of some of those characters, and even their souls, for use in other worlds, and other realms. Sama Rantha is one of those characters, and is going to find out that being a Hagchild and having to survive after your Hag Curse fails to murder you at birth is much, much less fun than setting it as your Race at level One on a gamescreen. Join Sama Rantha on her Road to Ten, and letting her Hagmother know exactly what she thinks of her... ------ Warning: This book starts with a HARD OPEN! It was written as an extension of other stories that have not made it onto the Internet yet for National Novel Writing Month in Nov/2018. Book One/Sama Rantha: A traditionalist LitRPG in the fantasy world vein. The beginning chapters will be heavy with gaming terms and the supporting math as Sama exploits the rules as much as possible, minmaxing her heart out to get one up on the world trying to kill her. The math and rules lawyering tapers off, but are never eliminated, as Sama is going to do everything she can to exploit the rules of reality here and not die, while making sure those responsible for this get exactly what is coming to them... ------ Book Two, The Far Future (starting Ch. 286): The Warp, the final frontier; in the grim darkness of a galaxy far far away, there came a hagchild...QX! Sci-fi/Fantasy/psionics mashup, grimbright clashing with grimdark! Sama is sent into a setting she'd rather not be in, but the heart of a powergamer never says no, even in the crapsack galaxy of the Tellurian Empire. BOOK TWO IS COMPLETE WITH 357 CHAPTERS AS OF 9/2020. ----------- Book Three (updating daily): The Human Race (next Book!) - Urban Fantasy world. Three Power of Ten gamers come together in a world under the Shroud of the Cancer of Death. Whatever might happen when they do, and what might they find there? Book Three is complete with 500 chapters: right here. Book Four: Power of Ten is dumped into the Marvel Universe. Surely there'll be no changes to canon when that happens? A Fanfiction variant, with teeth! Dynamo The Original Sama Stories: Being posted at: over in this location. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Discord link: in zis location is always up if I'm online.

Numbers Continually Going Upward
The world has very politely ended in the most webfiction way possible. Everyone is now leveling up in various things. Problems are arising. Some or all of those problems may be based around how to have a community barbeque when the nearest cow has been teleported to a few thousand miles away, along with the nearest supermarket. Join our protagoinst as he attempts to be a cool person, while everything falls apart. _____It turns out that any attempt to write a parody of the litrpg genre through overuse of the concept of leveling up inevitably fails when it turns out that *that is what the genre is based on*. Still, this was a fun little candy project of mine, and I might write more of it.

Parallels
Parallels are a constant in life. Our friends' lives often run parallel to ours; we share similar experiences or tastes- perhaps even both. Sometimes, however, opposites attract- and our lives run perpendicular. In that case, we are not attracted by similarities; rather, we are attracted to the differences in others. So, what happens when two parallels are broken apart? What might happen to them? Are they forever doomed to run alongside each other, never seeing one another, never meeting? Or, perhaps, might they be spun about? Could these lines that formerly ran alongside one another meet? Could they possibly be set perpendicular? Any feedback is welcome, so long as it is constructive. Also, you may not use any characters, ideas, places, or what have you that I present here without my explicit permission. A note: This is a story which I began over a year ago, but never got around to finishing- it feels about time to really get it going. Now, there are a couple of things about the story, and myself, that need to be said. First and foremost, there's a slow start, but by the third-fourth chapter things should be speeding up a bit. Secondly, in regards to release speed and/or word count per chapter, I make no promises- my schedule is fairly random, and in regards to word count, I will cut off any chapter at any point that feels appropriate to me- that may include cliffhangers, if necessary. I'm not trying to reach a specific word count, I am trying to create a cohesive story, with pseudo-appropriate chapter breaks. This means I will also not rush a half-baked release for the sake of getting a release out. Thirdly, I will make any edits, anywhere in the story and at any time, that strike me as necessary- typically being wording and/or formatting changes, but I may also decide to change major plot points- in that case I would put a notification in the next chapter released. Finally, and most importantly, I am a Christian; this story is intended to at least moderately reflect those values. So, if you particularly dislike any of these things, feel free to look elsewhere, and don't let the door hit you on the way out. God bless, friends.

This was not one of those times.A quick warning from me before you read! This story has broken characters. They all have flaws and none are perfect. The MC can't fight, he's only a human just 18 years old. As it is tagged with mature you should also know that suicide, while not a core theme plays a part in the story. Abuse both mental and physical as well. Also, I make some really stupid jokes. What do Earth's morals mean in a world where killing is easy? When Bran is tricked by an uninformative and unhelpful goddess he is taken to another world. How will the weak Bran survive in this world without any cheat skills, or even knowledge of the basic human language? Can he possibly find a reason to even try to stay alive in this strange new world? These are all answered in the completely original, no-holds barred story: The Mountains Of Versailles.
