《How I Became A Jarl》3. In The Storm
Advertisement
Happy with my second journey to the ship I came back with two clay jugs. I immediately opened one of them. It was wine! And a strong one at that. The scent was very intense. With two sips I already felt drunk… and I’ve got the whole jug left! Probably all jugs on the ship have some alcohol in them! I took a few more sips and… I fell asleep? I think?
When I woke up I was so hungry. Also, there was my puke in the helmet… I’ll clean that later… I got tired of eating berries all day. There was a rabbit on this island… maybe there are more of them?
I was hiding in the bush somewhere in the middle of the forest near the berries. After a while, the rabbit arrived. Once it was close to me I jumped on it and stroked my sword. I wasn’t even close to hitting the rabbit. When it started to run I threw my sword but I missed…
How fast were people in the past, that they hunted rabbits like that every day! Or were they good at throwing?
Wait…
THEY HAD BOWS AND I DON'T! No… they also used traps… To think that they don’t teach kids something useful like that in school. I dug a small hole with my ax. Deep enough to not let the rabbit escape. I placed some sticks and covered them with leaves. I placed some barriers on it to attract rabbits.
I fell asleep while waiting but squeaks woke me up. There he was! In the hole! My dinner! I took the rabbit and set the trap again to have something tasty for the next day.
The storm appeared in the middle of the night. I was too scared that something would happen to my shed so I didn’t sleep. There was something on the water. On the horizon, I saw yellow dots… Were those a light? It was my chance to be spotted by people. Using my last few percent of battery I gave signals with the phone's flashlight.

When I was on the beach I stopped because I saw someone near the water. He was lying there, unconscious. Once I was close to him I saw that he had chains on his legs. Is he a prisoner? No… He also had grey torn robes. By the look of it, he's probably from Asia.
I took him to my shed. He was breathing but he was unconscious. I lit a fire and tried to keep it small to not burn my shed… I didn't sleep much that night… In the morning I ate berries. The only thing I drank so far was water and wine… It would be hard to do a coffee without coffee beans. But what do I need to make tea?
Well… I just went into the first and took all the herbs that I saw and started experimenting. I didn’t have any cups and it was hard to do one with wood so I made a bowl. I tried every herb and one of them tested closest to the tea that I know… but it was still far from perfection.
*COUGH* *COUGH* *COUGH*
I went inside to see how that guy was doing. He looked pale and… scared? I don’t know why someone would be scared of their Savior. He started to scream in some weird language. It didn’t sound like any Asian language…
I showed him my empty hands and said “Calm down, calm down… Do you speak English?”
Guy froze in place. He didn’t look scared now. But he definitely was confused. I slowly took off my helmet and asked “Do you understand me?”
“You’re from the earth!” He immediately replied.
“From where else could I be? From mars?”
“No… I mean like another world.”
“You hit your head or something in that storm?”
“I didn’t…”
“So what do you mean by another world…”

Reborn Into My Novel
What if you lived in the world of your own creation? As fate would have it, our dear amateur novelist, Ellie, was reborn into the world of her fantasy novel after falling asleep at her computer. Bewildered as she was, the first person that she met was the protagonist of her novel. To add salt to the wound, it was right before the tragedy that decimated his village as per his backstory. Will Ellie save the village (and herself) to risk changing the fundamentals of her novel? Will she instead let the story run its course and leave everyone in the village to their deaths? Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive. Kthxbye. ps: Thanks for even reading this trash work pps: You’re not trash for reading this trash work btw ppps: Thanks I love y’all so much Shout out!
