A new day! a new adventure!
I woke up smiling, ready to go and meet my possibly new friends! as always i went downstairs, and ate breakfast. i then went to the west gate immediately, and there i saw the party waiting for me. i silently teared up in my mind, since i never had a group to hang out with.
"Good Morning." [Henry]
"Good morning to you too, Henry." [Mark]
"Are we all ready?" [Henry]
"Yes, we were just waiting for you." [Mark]
"What's the battle plan?" [Henry]
"Me and Ron are going to be the front, Sam, Anabel, and you will be the support." [Mark]
""""Right."""" [[[[Henry, Ron, Sam, and Anabel]]]]
We then got on a wagon, and just went. here's the time to finally appraise them.

When noon struck, we stopped the wagon and had lunch. i din't bring any food with me, and i can't use [Code] since they'll become suspicious on where i got the food, so i endured it. but their lunches looks so good! they even have pie! and the best of all, manga meat! where the meat is cooked circular, and has a bone to hold the meat!
While they had lunch i went to the river near to our spot. i just skipped some rock along the river, since i had nothing to do, nor eat. then mark suddenly talked to me.
"Umm... What are you doing?" [Mark]
"Skipping rocks." [Henry]
"Are you using magic?" [Mark]
"No, just physics." [Henry]
"I never heard of this kind of physics before." [Mark]
"Really?" [Henry]
"Anyway, why aren't you joining us?" [Mark]
"Because i didn't bring any food with me." [Henry]
"Oh, don't worry, we can share." [Mark]
"Really!?" [Henry]
"Of course." [Mark]
Mark is a good guy. a really good guy. so i joined in, and i picked up a small piece of the manga meat. i drooled, and then took a bite. as expected... it was delicious! the juice of the meat just flowing in your mouth, the meat melting in your mouth as you eat it, it was the most delicous thing i ever tasted. it was heavenly.
After we ate lunch, we went back to the wagon, and started traveling again. and a few minutes later, we arrived.
We stopped in the middle of the dirt road, we got off, and then we payed the coachman. the coachman then went back to Fenrig.
we sneaked into the forest. searching for the fanged bear.
It was quiet. all we could hear is the sounds of cicadas. we stayed alert, we stayed cautious, and then finally, we found it. it was rampaging in the forest, tearing down, wolf after wolf after wolf.
Mark made signs to get in formation, so we did.
"Okay, Henry will make the first move, and then we attack."

"After Henry takes of some damage to the horned bear, Ron will defend, me and Anabel attack, and Sam will heal." [Mark]
"Got it." [Henry, Ron, Sam, and Anabel]
So i cast a volleyball-sized fireball, and i threw the fireball to the fanged bear. it took out almost all of its health. and i set it to only use 10 magic point. the party was surprised, but quickly focused on the fanged bear. Ron ran in first, then Mark and Anabel came and started attacking.
"This bear is tougher than i thought!"
"[Slash]!" [Mark]
"[Power Punch]!" [Anabel]
"[Defence]!" [Ron]
Even with the activation of skills, Mark and Anabel could only do little damage to it. the fanged bear retaliated, Ron took a huge deal of damage, then Sam quickly healed him.
"AHH!"
"He-henry, cast another spell!"
"O-okay!"
I then cast the same spell as before and then threw it to the fanged bear, the fanged bear was then engulfed with flames, and it's health quickly depleted.
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has leveled up.' 'Skill points obtained.'
'Henry Black has gained the title: [Bear Killer]'
Yes! level up six times! and a new title too! oh yeah, i wonder what i'm going to use my skill points on. since i have the skill [Code], it doesn't really have a purpose for me. i don't know, let's just keep stock piling it.
"Wow. Henry, how did you get such powerful magic?" [Mark]
"I can't tell you that Mark." [Henry]
"Well anyways, without you, we would have surely died!" [Mark]
"Don't say that. this is my first time in a party, so i thank you for your guidance." [Henry]
"C-could you please show me how you got so much magic power?" [Sam]
"Well, i'll show you, as a gift of appreciation." [Henry]
I then took out a normal stone and told everyone that this is a stone I found when i was a child. I said that this was the key to my magic. i then proceeded to give it to Sam.
"Wha-what!?" [Sam]
"Here you go. it's a gift." [Henry]
"N-no! i cannot accept such a precious stone!" [Sam]
"Don't worry, it only works once for every person." [Henry]
"Really?" [Sam]
"Yes, really." [Henry]
Sam then cupped her hands, covering the stone and she placed it near her heart. i then used [Code] to give her the real gift.
giveSamReelem MP 100 while{
giveSamReelem white particles 10 50} |
Then some white light covered Sam as if she was being called out by god. but after 10 seconds, it disappeared.
"Now, check your status." [Henry]

Then Sam expressed a surprised face, she then walked towards me.
"Tha-thank you!" [Sam]
"It's no problem." [Henry]
"But this stone is amazing!" [Mark]
"it could probably sell for a million gold!" [Anabel]
"Really? would people go that far?" [Henry]
"Yes! mages would do anything to gain more MP." [Mark]
"I guess i should be more secretive about the stone then." [Henry]
"Yeah you should." [Mark]
I then Gently took back the stone from Sam and put it inside my pocket. we walked back to town. when we arrived, it was the stroke of midnight. so we quickly went to the adventurer's guild and redeemed the awards. i was given about 20 silver and 5 GP.
We exit the guild, said goodbye to each other, and went our separate ways.
i proceeded to the same inn i always went, payed the silver, and went to room 4. i lied down on the bed, tired. i closed my eyes, and went to deep sleep.

The Harrowbird's Crown
(Formerly: Tales of a Harrowed House) Synopsis: This is the tale of an exiled royal family who, after their bloody reunion on the island of Providence, return to a war-torn homeland where once more, powerful forces pit sibling against sibling in a bid for the crown — and once more, the magical streets of Auctor echo their infamous motto: “Fire will Reign as Harrowbirds Soar!” From his humble beginnings as a shoemaker’s son, his year spent as a daringly brazen orphan caught between rivaling Houses and a mad ghost, and his fight for the crown after his return to Auctor, Corbyn faces a coming-of-age story unlike any before him as he discovers magic and birthright are two things he never knew he had. From the intimate narrative of a childhood that was never her own, her year spent struggling to find the person she is rather than the person her family needs her to be, the secrets she hides, and the truths she finds, Halle discovers herself on the fabled island of Providence as her House collapses around her, bids to enter a legendary school of magic in her homeland of Auctor, and fights for a crown she never knew she wanted. A high-action, character-focused story written with a poet’s styling, The Harrowbird’s Crown is a tale that will transport readers into the conflict and conquest of a royal family back on the rise. General Information: This story is more traditionally plotted. While the beginning may seem to start out slowly, when shit hits the fan: the action is constant, the mysteries are satisfying, and the character development is rewarding. Chapters are usually between 2.5-3.5 thousand words (though some, like the first and second chapters, can run up to 5k words). When it’s long it means that the chapter will just have that much content in it. There’s Action, Mystery, Fantasy, Comedy, and some Psychological undertakings. Romance hasn’t come up yet, but it may in future chapters. I try to have chapters out every Sunday at 7:00 CST Book One: The Ghost of Providence

Return of Chaos
For the longest time, it was thought that the citizens of Earth were the only denizens of the galaxy incapable of developing superhuman abilities — but recent events have flipped that assumption on its head. Between Austin Travis, Mote Emerson, Pierce Bradley, and their friends, Earth is now host to 12 Chaotics… as well as a myriad of mysteries surrounding them. From a new nemesis in the form of a clone, to connections to ancient technology from a long-lost civilization, to the ability to summon powerful legendary weapons, these 12 Chaotics have unknowingly become entangled in something larger than any of them have ever imagined. As if in response to these discoveries, the sinister machinations of galactic evil are churning. The metallic infection, a calamitous nanotechnology “disease” thought to have been vanquished 20 years ago, is slowly returning — and alongside it, a number of conflicts thought to be long past. While they only seek to better grasp their own abilities, Earth’s Chaotics will soon find themselves in the crossfire of returning threats and old heroes. These superpowered Earthians may not have chosen this path through life, but it will still be up to them to determine if history remembers them — to determine if history remembers the saga of the Keys. Return of Chaos is a direct sequel to Chosen Chaos, which begins the Key Saga novel series. Be sure to read Chosen Chaos first, to understand the plot and the characters thus far! Additionally, the Key Saga as a whole takes place 20 years after Rise. You will not need to read Rise to understand the events of Return of Chaos, however the latter will spoil many of the events that occurred in Rise, due to the simple chronology of taking place later in the timeline.
