《The Lost Characters [Vanilla Dark Fantasy]》077
Advertisement
At 17 years old, Adam still didn't quite know what to do when he got his black robe, but it was still too early to think about such matters.
Footsteps, excited by his new glasses, Adam headed to school. This was the first time he noticed how useful these godfathers were to the librarians, all the previous times he 'gained something': they were things he couldn't use like magic books or didn't notice like karma. But these glasses were real, and their effects seem super useful; for which he was very excited to try to find any non-white footprints on the ground.
Still, the only thing Adam could see as he climbed the stairs was white spots all over the floor, the white footprints so many that they covered every corner of the marble steps of the stairs.
Somewhat disappointed, Adam stopped on the stairs to rest and ask his godfather if he knew anything about the stone shelf and why the stone pebble shelf told him he had a hard time.
His godfather answered by typing quickly, which meant that he was angry at the question:
'Do you know how many millennia is an age for a bookshelf? Don't worry and don't bother to know the truth of that useless story.
Now your only concern is to obtain the black robe and learn the secrets of your positive karma.
You do worry about that; since I don't know anything about the path of heroes. Your eyes could hold several secrets and some could save your life: You must discover those secrets on your own!
Also, I don't want the next change in your body to be something unknown that ends up killing you for drawing attention from others: Be careful and find out everything!'
Adam didn't know whether to follow this advice; he knew his godfather was paranoid, but this time he seemed pretty sure the stone bookshelf thing was unimportant.

The boy had never seen a bookshelf cry, so he didn't think it was silly. But his godfather was right about the times. The last time a bookshelf told Adam to be careful in the future, it was years before he noticed the problems of war.
Adam pondered the matter further as he walked slowly up the steps. There weren't a few times that he tripped down the steps shining white, but the boy wanted to get used to these new flooring colors as soon as possible.
The interesting thing about this magical object is that Adam never knew if the next step would have a footprint of some hidden creature, which motivated the boy to keep trying his luck to see if they found any treasure that others could not see.
Finally, Adam made it to the school, but found nothing on the way. The first thing Adam noticed is that the footprints of the school booklets did not appear anywhere, which is why the boy noticed one of the great issues of blindly following this magical object and that is that many creatures moved not necessarily using their feet. .
Because of the schedule, Adam should have been late, so he hurried a bit to have plenty of time to complete his 100-page celebration. He didn't know how long the celebration would take to complete, but he still remembers spending a few hours reading the 10 pages together with his classmates in his first and only official celebration so far.

The Sun's Remnant
Two people are transported to a world with magic, but it is no Wonderland. When the god of light died, he decided to take the world with him. At least, that’s what many believe in the Kingdom of Rhine, a once vast kingdom of which only a small corner remains — and even that is threatened. On one side, by the Twisted Forest, a corruption spreading from the deathplace of the gods that has already swallowed up most of Rhine. On the other, by the resurgent Kagrathan Empire, resurrected by the infallible God-Emperor Karlatz. A holy order of knights carry out their mission despite the death of their god. A band of talented misfits prepare for a heist out of their league — by stealing. Mages hunt for secrets even as the world ends. A ruler does what must be done to save the living, no matter the cost. Into this world of magic and murder, two adrift souls are inexplicably dragged: a mother estranged from her young daughter due to her own mistakes, and a young man with a love of fantasy who has gradually drifted away from his friends and family. As they each struggle to find their place in this world, they must also answer the question: do they want one?***Content Warning: I've drafted about 100,000 words (most of the first volume), and there is no sexual content so far, though I may add it in the future. There is occasionally gore and traumatising content as the story demands. I commit to keeping all of the above non-voyeuristic. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

It's pointless. No one is worth saving, but that doesn't mean they aren't worth helping. No one is a plaything, but everyone's a pawn in this game. I hate it. Who's playing? I don't know. I don't even know what the game really is. I gave up on figuring that out after a time. What I do know is that I want to tell you all a story. It has a beginning, a middle, and an end, as any good story should. But, I really don't think you'd keep listening if I told it in order. So, we will start at three points; you'll have to figure out where they are in the overall story. The story of Hal and instinct, a pair so close that they might as well have been one. The story of The Husk, a creature on a hunt that would span generations. The story of Mask and a hero. How one will come to learn of the other's past and the many faces they had. Do you know where you stand? Do you side with the gods, the hero, the demon king, the experiment, the cursed, the blessed, the monsters, the forgotten? Well? I know. You don't know anything yet, so you can't say. So, enter our world, and find out what side is what.
