《The Great Hero》Chapter 3: The Great Hero
Advertisement
The pain and torment of being imprisoned in a state of absolute nothingness only having memories of past woes to look to as the only beacon in the infernal void would drive any good man insane. Though I had come to my senses, with nothing to do, I pondered. My trance of being in an existential crisis had long passed. A question still remained in my head based upon my new found beliefs.
How?
How do I undermine this constant cycle of defeat and rebuilding?
How do I pull apart this predestined end?
How do I win?
Win?
It’s not a matter of winning just to defy the outcome of defeat. Victory is not the only means to obtain my end. I must not let my anger and resentment of the humans who did all of this take control of me or it will only perpetuate the cycle.
When suddenly; a monotone, seemingly artificial, voice resounded in my head. It was a voice I was all too familiar with. The voice of [The System]. [The System] is an entity and/or phenomena that not even the greatest demon sages can explain. There is one trait that is well known about [The System], absolute neutrality, and that is why I don’t lament [The System] itself for pushing forward the tyrannical cycle of death and murder.

[SYSTEM MESSAGE: Point of incursion found. establishing connection.]
Wait what?
A resounding headache struck my entire being as if I was fighting for my very being itself.
It hurts.
It’s painful.
I can feel my conscience being pulled into the ether as if my existence is no longer necessary.
However I MUST NOT FALL HERE.
I CAN’T. Not until I have rectified this loop of never ending sorrow.
The pain slowly subsides.
[SYSTEM MESSAGE: original connection overwritten. Connection established]
My conscience fades into the ether.
When I come to, I feel strange. My eyes adjust to the light.
Wait!
Eyes!
Where am I?
A regal voice resounds throughout the room.
“Oh great hero; please, I implore you, help us in our time of greatest need!”

Rebirth Of Civilization
Andrew suddenly finds himself alone in world that is not his own. The creatures are hostile and unfamiliar, the land around him unrecognizable. He will have to work hard to explore the wilderness he has found himself in, to unravel the ancient magics of this world, and to create a safe place for the others lost in a foreign world like himself. This is a slow paced novel, with an early focus on discovery, survival and crafting. The slow pace is intentional as I hope to write this novel for many many chapters to come. This is also the first fiction I've written and I'm always working on improving my writing so all feedack is appreciated and taken into account. Discord
