Chapter 1- It seems that this is just the beginning eh… System Starting up. Adventure Start!
Still in an unknown forest somewhere
[and thus your journey begins NOW!]
And thus just as sudden as the mysterious voice of this god Zuldir appeared, it disappears in a blink of your eyes. Then the surroundings seem to come into further existence around you as an orb of bright light flashes into existence right in front of said eyes. The light that you see parts the sun's rays like they are nothing and even seems to brighten your mood as it seems to seal your chaotic thoughts all at once and as you are wondering if this is what is like to have a zen experience. You seem to faintly hear an oddly familiar sound ring in your head.

{Host's mental capabilities will be kept the same as Administrator Zuldir has commanded. Nevertheless, the host's physical body will be discarded and created anew and the characteristics placed within the host's memories to be unlocked. The unlock requirements will be set to be reaching the point of evolution of which indigenous non-self aware life forms reach to become self-aware. The development of self-awareness is a key step in developing intelligence and cannot be missed despite the host's unique circumstances.}
{As such the specific instincts and developments to the host's base life form will be kept in the host's biological makeup when the host becomes part of that species in his evolution path despite the differences the host has. This also applies to the host's biological influences when out in the world.}
{The system is allowed to tell the host that their soul and temporary body is located on Planet Iaria, within the borders of Iorilia Forest and the host's potential body is on the outskirts of Iorilla Forest and the nearest town is Marshyln Town}

{The system is only allowed by Administrator Zuldir to give the following basic information to start off the host's journey. The administrator's orders are to suggest the host to:}
{Locate the potential permanent host body within Iorilla Forest as soon as possible as the current host body is a recently revived dead Burrowing Earth Badger and its basic abilities are listed as the following:
Burrowing Earth Badger
Hp: 20/20 ~Minor Bleeding- Lose 1 HP every 6 mins until it is stopped~ ~Revived- HP, MP and Stamina halved forever~ ~Revived- A broad sensation of hunger, thirst or their primary substrates, or their primary substrates, or their primary substrates, or their primary substrates, or their primary substrates~
MP: 24/24 Stamina: 24/24 Ability: Burrow Ability Description: Burrow into the ground for 1 minute for every 1 Stamina used. During the duration of the skill, you can burrow up anytime to leave the underground or to make a surprise attack with the *blindsided" bonus.

MP used: 6
Stamina used: 0
{System reboot complete, the host will be left with only the most basic support of the system after this introduction. That is all, for now, host, the system will be leaving you with a basic AI that every indigenous life form has when they are born on the Planet of Iaria.}
The functions of the basic AI include a mobile bestiary, a basic map and many more functions of which are available only when using the system such as now with the displaying and viewing of your currents stats. There is also an unlockable inventory function but that is locked until you discover a system recognised item that provides storage as well as transporting such as a backpack for storing and carrying items or a coin bag for the purpose of storing and carrying currency.}
That glorious light that lured you into a false sense of security vanishes the second that creepy voice in your head stops speaking. I stumbled away from where the light was as soon as I had control of my b..od.y... I pause for a second and then I suddenly scream.
"BODY... I have the body of a FREAKING ANIMAL!!!"
The last part of that train of thought came out in a banshee yell in my head but despite my body being obviously of an animal "type", the actual sound that came out sounded oddly human in nature... I try to look back at what seemed like a very long lucid dream I had but I get interrupted by... PAIN, PAin! Dammit, what the HECK hurts that bad. LIke seriously mate Zuldir buddy come on!!!
*gah*
I gasp and seem to instinctively grab the wound which just makes it hurt even more! I finally get a hold of myself and see that I am bleeding quite badly on my... Paws? and my torso area due to what seem to be fairly deep claw marks. After I discover this I start to try to think rationally and practically. I start to reach for the smallest but deepest wound with my only uninjured arm and start talking to myself to try to distract myself from the pain.
"First I need to pressure it with something. Though there seems to be nothing nearby from what I can see so I will have to make do with trying out dog and cat pressure point areas on a bushy-haired clawed animal thing... Oh god help me, please tell me this Zuldir's system is forgiving in nature when it comes to stopping bleeding! I am screwed otherwise!"
I start to mumble partly in shock and partly in pain while doing all of this poxy crap called first aid for animals ha.
"Come on system cut me some slack! You info bombed my brain and now expect me to stop the bleeding out of my own f**cking body. Heck, you probably think you are generous in giving me an hour and a bit of life to get that "potential" body of mine eh! I bet you didn't even think I needed food, water and shelter did you huh? AH!!!
I start to give in to despair despite my numerous attempts to be positive in my head when I hear that familiar games notification sound. Now is it a sound of hope or a sign of more devastating news? Find out next time on...
Sub-Skill Gained: Bleeding Countermeasure 1- Pressure Points- 5/5 uses left until 5% pain relief reduction is applied to the user. 90% chance to reduce bleeding frequency by 1 minute per heal, 10% chance to reduce bleeding frequency by 2 minutes per heal. This sub-skill set also greatly reduces pain and loss of blood for 3 hours on every use but you will start to gain immunity to pain relief if you overuse it. Can be used on multiple parts of the body at an increased cost.

Dungeon Island
Reincarnated into a dungeon core beneath an island after losing my memories. I don’t yet know what happened to me, why I am here and the likes. But one day I will find out and then I will settle on my next actions. For now, I just have to take care of my little crabs. Warning: the 'Grimdark', 'Gore' and 'Traumatising content' are not there for show. They may not be fully relevant in the first chapters, but they are definitely there for a reason. Schedule: when I feel like it (usually between Wednesday and Friday night). This story is not a really serious work, I will use it to train my writing skills before going back to my other stories (Jezoi, and Vlaryne) that are currently on hold.

In the House of a Witch
While hiking during an extended weekend from grad school, the slightly airheaded Rose Snyder slips through a gap between worlds and encounters a witch.. With no way to return, she must adapt to the strange world of magic and danger, and find her place in a land where those who lose their grasp on reality fall. Shared Universe with my other story, https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/41575/the-archivists-petty-revenge Also posted on Scribblehub. Based on the description of traumatizing content, it's worth noting that this series normalizes tax evasion and other such crimes. Also is vaguely GirlsLove-ish.

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).

The Lost Archon
One early spring afternoon, sixteen-year-old Reid is going for a walk when he finds a magical occurrence taking him to another world. A world where he is considered an impossible mage - and where he becomes ridiculously powerful quickly. Though he's happy for the adventures he can go on and the friends he makes, Reid also wants to find out how he got there and why, and if there's a way to return home to his parents. Reid's priorities in this new world are learning magic, going on a few adventures, dealing with his feelings for the cute wolfkin Terrence Windfang, and seek an audience with the gods. All but one of them, he finds, is significantly easier than he expected. This is a participant in the [April 2022 Royal Road Writathon Challenge]. The story is also concluded as of 4/26/2022. IMPORTANT NOTES: 1) This is a story about an OP guy doing OP guy things. There will be few fights that he struggles with, and he will rarely, if ever, find his life in peril. 2) This is a slice-of-life and adventure story, which means that there will be periods of chapters without any action or conflict, but also periods of chapters with battles and exploration/adventure. 3) There will be NO petty squabbles or conflicts going on in this story, because it is meant to be a fun one, not a high-tension, drama-filled story. So it will NOT be that. If you want lots of action or lots of conflict, then find another story to read because this isn't it. 4) There will never be an overarching evil/villain/conflict to deal with in this story. Ever. 5) This story will not contain sexual content as it will end after Book 1. As such, Reid and his future boyfriend will never reach 18+ years of age in-story, so they will never have sex in the story. There will also be no harem in this story. 6) This is a part of the Royal Road April 2022 Writathon Challenge. 7) This story takes place in its own story universe, with its own rules. Please keep that in mind when reading it and other stories.
