《Arkhay (Writers block on this story..Sorry guys. might never add more)》A RATION OF HELL YEA! (Chap 2 Part 4)

Authors note.. This was going to be the start of ch 3, but i decided it fit better as being the end of ch2. Just jells better this way in my opinion. And should get the majority of the world mechanics done with. (Not all..Just a good portion)
..................................................................................................................
“So.......We are back where it all started again” I state, looking over at fortuna, I figured that she was probably going to be leaving to do whatever god's and goddess's do pretty soon. Deciding to pump her for a bit more information I asked ”Fortuna...Whats the deal with souls its listed in my inventory as a currency?”
She gets a serious look on her face “Every intelligent being, in all the universes has a soul, a very small portion of those beings decide for whatever reason to sell their soul. I do not recommend doing that for any price, trust me when I say that what most of those souls go through......its not pretty. The second source of souls come from the damned, people who murder, rape or do other very bad things."
"You see Richard, every god has at least one Galaxy like this one, They setup the galaxy's rules then sit back and suck up as many souls as they can. Some gods....Well they make it especially hard on those who live in their domains. The end result is beings are forced to break the cardinal rules or die. Gods use these souls to buy and sell things like abilities and property. Evil gods don't care at all about the souls they have, Some even take delight in tormenting them. I am considered to be a good goddess, because I don't torment souls I have or make my galaxy cruel."
"The Cardinal rules are pretty simple. One: Do not Murder, Two: Do not rape. There are Only two simple rules and yet.. millions of souls are collected annually. It is one of the reasons why I am changing the way this galaxy works, Those who are truly evil will get a one way ticket to a place place they deserve. Those who are not evil but get caught up in bad situations will get a second chance. There are other reasons I chose the reality setup that I did, but at this time...you don't need to know. Maybe someday.... ”

Considering this new information a question formed “Who owned this galaxy before you?” she smirks and says “That is a very good question Richard, None of the gods knows who actually created this galaxy. Or at least if they do they are not telling. The only things i know is that it was created then abandoned. The god seems to have completely ignored all of his duty's. The only reason why this galaxy was put up for auction was because no owner came forward willing to pay the soul tax, so it was repossessed.”
I burst out laughing “HAHA!!! Even the gods have to pay taxes eh?!!! I guess the old saying 'you can't beat death or tax's is true!” Shaking her head at me Fortuna grins back. “Well Fortuna thank you for all of your help, I am at a loss at what to do now. I should probably head back to my world and contact a few people. Only having a month to get the word out isn't much.” Fortuna “ well you don't have to worry about the time right now, The time compression between this reality and your old one is quite high. For every Earth day, six months pass's here. So you have plenty of time to explore a and raise your skills up.”
There are times in my life that I have been completely and utterly speechless. [Dan: Could have fooled me] Fortuna “My time here is growing short. If you head south from here, on the other side of the lake is a small village. On the way there you should probably stay out of the thickest parts of the Forrest, there are many dangerous creatures. Make sure you bind your spawn point here. To bind yourself to a certain spot all you need to do is focus on the spot and think 'Bind Spawn point'."

"If you die you will revive at that spot. But Be careful though, while there is no penalty to stats you will loose all Level experience and spawn naked. To get your belongings back, you will need to find your body and pray that what or whoever killed you didn't take anything. Send your Prayers to me if you need anything, I might not always reply but i will be listening. Good luck Richard” And with a wink at me, just like that she was gone. Looking up to the sky I sent off a quick prayer thanking her for her help.

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
