Chapter 1
[Congratulations Mystic! You have discovered an unknown tablet.]
[Would you like to take a closer look? At your own risk of course..]
As a pursuer of truth, my zeal for greater knowledge overtakes my usual cautious nature.
I focus my mind.. as I seem to grasp a profound law... runes and strange symbols start to align... "Wisdom stat insufficient" jolts me awake from the profound state. I stare blankly for a moment before then of course start cursing and grumbling at the stupid tablet.
Then with a flash of lightning and the pitter patter of rain, a black-hooded robed figure appears seemingly out of nowhere... Out of the corner of my eye, the intimidating figure stands silently behind me.. the rain continues to increase.. I start to sweat... neither of us move.. I bolster up my courage as I prepare to face this enemy. I slowly reach for a scroll from under my robe but alas I am too late.. the figure moves with lightning speed, realising any hope of defeating this enemy must have been a joke. Maybe I just wasn't cut out for this line of work I muse to myself. The figure is already upon me as I sense death approaching.. "Mast..er this is for.. you, I bel..ieve you dro..pped it" I blink, as I take a moment to recall that this is in fact my most trusted and only apprentice Jack.
Jack while a quick-witted fellow, the cunning look in his eyes is quite disturbing at times. As I am of course an upright and honest individual, having such company reflects poorly on me, but alas this world is too frightening to be by myself. The black figure takes a knee trembling before me. I find that quite odd but don't press the issue... just attributing it as one of his many odd quirks. Taking a look at the runic tablet in his out-stretched hands.. the glowing symbols seem to mock me.. a cold look emnates. Jack seems to tremble with greater intensity.. "The tablet is yours Jack, I have no use for such elementary knowledge" "Yes yes of..course ma..ster.. forgive me.." "...." Looking at him for a moment dumbfounded. I start to question if it is healthy for me to keep such a disciple around.

Shaking my head to clear my thoughts. "Ahh my boy Jack, let's us depart" The two figures slowly disappear into the forest. A while later, the sound of birds chirping could be heard once more as the forest returns to its peaceful state.
To be Continued.

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.

Life would be so much easier if I weren't a monkey
Waking up in a strange place can be rough. Waking up in a strange body is even rougher. Finding out you're a basic bottom of the barrel monkey in a world full of monsters, adventurers and other things that would very much like to eat you, is just about as bad as it gets. In fact, I struggle to think of much that would be worse. On the bright side, at least you have an option to get stronger and prevent yourself from being eaten. Join this poor little monkey on her quest to possibly not die in a world that seems to very much want to make her new life much shorter.
