《The Misfits of Alter》Chapter 4- October 4th

Mindy opened her eyes, staring at the ceiling. She looked down at her stomach, and sighed with relief. Her relief vanished, turning to what appeared to be guilt. "Not again." She held her head in her hands. She wasn't sure how long she'd stayed like that, until someone started knocking on her door. "Yo, Mindy. You up?" "Yeah. Just-I need a minute." Silence. "Did it happen again?" "Yes." Her door opened and in walked a girl wearing a black hoodie, blue jeans, and a pair of goggles hanging around her neck. She walked over to Mindy, sat down, and hugged her. Mindy froze up. She felt like every emotion inside her was being sucked out of her. She closed her eyes, and the vision of a man stabbing her in the stomach engulfed her vision. But only for a moment. After that, it was gone. "There. Better?" Mindy nodded. The girl was stroking her hair, and they stayed like that for a few more minutes before Mindy broke off the embrace. "Sorry for that. You must be pretty drained." Mindy got up, walking over to her fridge. "Well, maybe a little." She admitted, hastily grabbing the pink bottle once Mindy offered it. "So, Nebula, any recent hunts." Nebula got a grin on her face. "I killed an Organ Wolf." Mindy whistled. "Level B or A?" "A." Mindy raised a brow. "You must be pulling my leg." Nebula shook her finger. "Mind break, remember?" Mindy made a sound of understanding.
"That makes more sense." They continued on chatting, letting the time pass them by.
…
"Oh, hello Mindy." Mindy entered Victorian Hall, and was immediately met by Monika's passionate greeting, and a boy she'd met recently, who gave her a small smile. "Hello, bud." She wrapped an arm around his neck, asking Monika about any contracts. "Um, there should be a few around here. Hang on a moment." She bent under her desk. "So, David, hitting on the desk lady?" "What? No." She gave him a grin that could only be taken as malicious. "Please, no." He whispered. "But don't you think she's pre-" Monika came back up, showing her the pile of requests. "Ah, yes! Now let's see…" she scanned through the requests, stopping on one. "Ooh. Hey David, you ever fight an organ wolf?" Monika looked mortified. "Um, once, with an old partner." "Wanna team up with me?" "Erm, well-" "Oh, perish the thought!" Monika was laughing like an insane person. "Surely I can get you somebody ready for such a mission?" Mindy scoffed. "Wow, David, I didn't take you for someone who lets their friends fight their battles." David scratched the back of his neck. "David-" "Well, I guess it depends on your rank." "How's a B-Rank level 60 badass fire slinger sound?" David pondered it for a moment. "Okay, I'll go." Monika squatted under her desk, face pale as snow, where she stayed until they left.

The Vitaean Chronicles - Volume I: The Sanguine Prince
NOTE: Chapters 02 - 19 are currently slated for review and rewrite following the Conclusion of Act I. Please bear this in mind! When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.

In his first quest, among the ancient ruins of Kavralach, Ninetoes faces danger and intrigue. Failure will mean the destruction of his home and his people, for whom he now has the potential to become their champion. Ninetoes must master the magic system of the game, advance as rapidly as he can, and find friends. For a wizard alone is vulnerable.
