IPoor Bear. Enjoy?
In his vision, that until now was filled with an endless forest of trees, Ludius noticed something. In front of him 50 odd meters away the end of the forest could be seen leading onto the plains beyond.
"Finally, I thought I'd be in that forest for years!", Ludius exclaimed happily, even though in actuality he'd only been in the forest for around two hours.
By now it was near night tine and in QV, not unlike other games of its genre, more hostile creatures come out at night especially in wooded areas. So Ludius was happy to find the exit.
After stepping one foot out of the dense forest and onto the plains Ludius heard a noise due to his elflike ears (due to his option of choosing other races' characteristics).
"~~~p! ~elp!", and after focusing on the noise Ludius finally made it out.
"Help!", a clear scream echoed throughout the forest in fear. With a groan and an annoyed look on his face Ludius managed to retract his foot and head in the direction of the noise.

"Help! Help me! Please anyone, help!", came the scream of a young women through the evening light.
3 hours earlier the woman had come into the forest to gather herbs for her father's company when she suddenly found herself lost. She was always getting herself lost, ever since that time when she was five years old and got lost in her back garden.
Anyway, around 3 minutes ago whilst the woman was picking some flatblade grass she saw a shadow on the ground in front of her. Luckily she managed to roll away from this killing strike of the creature and since then she had been running towards the village whilst screaming for help.
"Doonn't woorry!", came the shout of a blur as it ran out in front of the woman whose back was already against the trunk of a tree.

A lunatic just ran out a bush to protect her from certain death only to jump in the way of their own death. The woman couldn't help but laugh at the irony of the whole situation...
"What!", the woman gasped in surprise at the man's question.
---
As soon as he heard the cry for help Ludius heroically sprung into action and sprinted in the direction to help (translation: as soon as he heard the cry for help he took his sweet time getting there to see if it will interest him). When he got there what he saw was indeed 'interesting'.
A young woman, perhaps late teens to early twenties, with light auburn hair and wearing a bright yellow dress pinned her back against the trunk of a large oak tree. A fearful look on her charming face. In front of the women was the second animal since spawning.
A large bear covered with scars, was standing on its two back legs. Its bloodshot eyes glaring at the woman while drawl dripped of its deadly looking teeth. You could say this was the second most terrifying creature Ludius had seen so far on his adventure.
Waiting in the shadows of the trees Ludius muttered to himself."Well they say first impressions count.".
And with that Ludius once again sprung heroically into action by darting in front of the woman. Her reaction?
"Ha ha ha, ha ha!"?
"Why are you laughing?", Ludius asked calmly while looking over his shoulder at the woman.
"What!", the woman shouted whilst blushing.
"Oh whatever. I'll deal with this bear somehow and get back to you later.", after having made his decision Ludius looked directly at the bear.
---
"Get out of my way stupid man. Can't you see I'm trying to eat here!", growled the bear in whatever language bears speak.

And like the bad tempered bear that it was it swiped a large clawed paw at the annoying distraction.
"Swish", the bear's arm went flying through the air after a well timed sword draw and after another slash the unfortunate bear's head went following.

LEVEL UP
'Clap, Clap, Clap.', the blushing woman started clapping and ran over to Ludius as he was putting his sword away.
"Oh handsome mighty adventurer will you escort a gentle maiden home?", the woman asked.
"How far.", Ludius asked bluntly.
Pouting the woman said,"Around a mile."
"Alright but you're leading the way."

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.
