《World tag#001》Chapter016
Advertisement
My sight was dyed red for the longest seconds of my life, sure I didn't feel the heat or vibration I expected, but that served only to fuel my anxiety. I still felt more calm than I should, but I'm starting to think my sense of what's normal and what's not is irreparably damaged.
Still I have to admit, once forgetting the feeling of approaching death, free falling was really exciting. The night sky was almost free clouds and the ocean below, dotted with islands, was mesmerizing.
Even if I couldn't see the thing that surrounded and protected me, from the few movement my eyes stained to do, I still felt a change in it. Just when I was trying to think of a reason for the sensation, my falling speed started decreasing visibly.
With a much slower approach, to the surface of the planet, details of the islands an ocean were more clear. Three were the bigger land masses and I started losing count of the small one.
- It sure isn't Earth... I'm surely not a geography enthusiast but not even one coastlines matches my memory...
The decreasing speed also showed me what could be the destination of this uncontrollable trip. A group of three lone islands in the middle of the ocean, almost at the same distance from the continents, seemed my landing point.
After a while, my lack of any kind watch was killing me, I felt like I had memorized all the various coastlines and relative position of what I could see. With all the menu function blocked, and my lack of mobility, I started to reflect more seriously than before on my current situation.
- Sure, I have to admit, all this excitement is fun and all... But the lack of all the reaction, and sensation, I could have felt before this... Is disturbing...

Maybe it's true that memories define one-self, bur never like now I think I understand. All of this, new body, photographic memory, hud etc., is slowly eroding my original personality.
- Sigh... Why I always overthink, why?!
Outburst apart my prominent tracts seems in intact, so it's better to imagine this more like a game for my mental health. Also this strange skydiving experience is reaching a conclusion.
The islands were now filling my view and, guessing my trajectory, I was going to land on the bigger of the three. If it's really another planet I shouldn't apply Earth standards, but judging by position alone they should have tropical climate. All the greenery I could see also showed that it's sure fertile land.
When I started slowing down more and more my doubts on my landing destination started to clear. A plateau on top of a inactive volcano was the only place that was illuminated, and that made click something inside my mind. Of all the place I've seen, while in the atmosphere, there were no visible lights.
- Please, please somebody say it's only because I couldn't see them... I fear all the other implication...
Apart for my crawling doubts, the structure that seemed the source of the light came into view. A truncated cone It's the best description I could think at the moment. The top part, that was as bright as a thousands light bulbs, was centered into my sight so I suppose it's time to land on it.

Avatar: Jǫrðsaga
There is beauty in Chaos and serenity in Order. One cannot exist without the other. Each gives meaning to their counterpart, eternal rivals and eternal lovers. It’s a shame only a rare few ever come to this revelation. Most live their lives trapped in an illusion, their path to enlightenment forever cut off. A lie will forever remain a lie, no matter how sweet it is. I will not turn a blind eye to the truth of the world. It matters not what others think of me, be they family, friends, allies, or enemies. They may call me a monster, a devil, a lunatic even. But I will not bend. I will not break. I will not be forced into conformity under threat posed by the child of Order. Because what is Order if not Chaos’ accomplice? There is only one path worth treading, and I will do whatever it takes to advance forward. For I am Sǫlmundr, Lord of the Earth. Avatar series fanfic. The first volume will not have anything canon. I apologise in advance. It will be setting up the mcs background and origins. It’s gonna be between 60 to 70 chapters in length. The power system in the avatar is pretty non-confrontational. You don’t have to fight for resources like in cultivation novels, so the frequency of his evil acts will be pretty spread out. This is a slow burn novel that I hope will draw readers into the world and slowly build up to whatever the climax of each arc is. I can only promise that he will always be a rational, benefits based mc. No harem. There will be love of some sort, but only because I’m literally forced by the power system to include it. Don’t worry though, mc will always prioritise his own interests first and will not let feelings get in the way. Chapter length: ≈ 2k words Updates: Once a week
