《World tag#001》Chapter018

- Now we wait for your avatar's synchronization with the new environment, meanwhile we can finally do a q&a session.
- After three days... Just like that... Breathe in, breathe out... ...
- Well normally new matrix's avatars would have to listen to the lore introduction and should consult each obelisk for instruction. But I believe we exceeded normal parameters by far, so now you can simply ask.
- I'm starting to have a migraine, is this even possible with this body? Anyway how much time I have for asking questions?
- I think your headache is only psychological originated, you shouldn't have physical feedback until the end of the synchronization sequence. And you can ask for all the time you want.
- Care to explain this "feedback" thing?
- When, a few more minutes actually, the sequence will end, you will have again the full control and feedback of your avatar. Obviously complete of the upgrade you obtained until now.
- Obviously... Just so I can understand better, what will change from before, and I mean from my original body, from the time in the room and now?
- Your original body's stat and skill are unknown to me the system came in contact with your matrix only after you separated from it, I could only glimpse at the last instant of your original life but not enough data to extrapolate significant results.
- Wait a minute! You said I was going to get cremated... did you lie to me?
- From the relative time between the end of you original body, the system's search and the memories of your last will, I estimated the moment your original body would be cremated.
- Estimated, estimated... How sure you're of your calculation?
- From the data I have a 2.3 second of error.
- Sigh... I have no way to check in any way, so lest's say I believe you, what are the difference I should expect from the white room and now?

- I think that thanks to your intuition you will be able to pick the change immediately, but to answer your question in the testing room you were on a slight compulsion to "do something", your avatar grow-rate was doubled and no other basic biological function were activated.
- Such as?
- Hunger and thirst are the more prominent, the full list I'm not authorized to disclose. And I believe it would be fairly boring.
- Yeah, because you worry about my entertainment right?... Will I be free of compulsion now?
- Yes, like I said before, no external interference is permitted on the matrix after it pass the test...
While it was talking, I was assaulted by a feeling comparable to plunging, my whole body, in ice water after a day under the scorching sun. My skin felt first hot and than cold, no wonder I started shivering like a new-born lamb.
- The synchronization seems complete, I think in a few hour you will start to feel all the others change. What you feel now is the feedback from the avatar's settings to the new atmosphere, gravity ecc.

Marrow
Marrow was old... older than me or you. Older than the nation he lived in. And older than anyone he knew. Which is not surprising, because he did not know anyone else. He had been sitting, or perhaps leaning is the more apt expression, in a closet for many, many years, and had done nothing but stare. But eating, or rather chewing, a spider opened up another world to him. A world with a voice that was talking to him - to HIM! Marrow did not get what the voice was saying, but that was secondary at this point. And Marrow started to feel restless. Nuff said. If you like a sometimes quirky skeleton as the main character and want to ride along for its coming of age, or perhaps rather coming of sapience story... give it a shot. It is a litrpg context with skills, levels, heroes and monsters... and a skeleton. Not sure yet how fast the skeleton will level... we'll have to wait and see. As a disclaimer... this is my secondary novel... my main story is ongoing and most of my time is dedicated to that. As such, new chapters will, at first, be rather infrequent and irregular. If things go well, I may shift more attention to the story, but we shall see how things go.
