*Beep*
As that soft countdown starts, I slowly attempt to regain my bearings.
*Beep*...*Beep*
Groggily I look around me, almost everything is glowing with a slight blue hue, in front of me there is some kind of glass covered in frost, can't see much past it.
*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*
Trying to rub off the sleep, I try to bring my hands up to my face, but there is something keeping them in place... my legs also seem to be unmovable, waist, shoulders... I can't move anything but my head!
*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*
Panic starts to kick in, I struggle to remember just what is going on, now completely desperate I wriggle with all my strength to no avail, whatever is keeping my body in place won't budge.
*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*...*Beep*... Stasis terminated... Now opening chamber, please be careful while stepping out and remember to work hard for Aurum, many lives depend on you.
After that female voice finishes, the frosty glass slides to my right revealing an empty room whose gray walls are decorated with mold and some cracks.
After taking some minutes to relax, I meekly try to move my legs, contrary to my expectations they encounter no resistance this time... right, left, right, left...now standing on the middle of the room, I look back and see some kind of coffin, not quite, but it's the only way I can describe it, instead of black, wooden walls, it has filthy metallic plates, inside there is a blue jelly-like substance which has the imprint of my back...*plop*... had, it just molded into a smooth surface.
*Beep**Beep*... Hello Kin, I see you are suffering from slight memory loss, you are unfit for work like that, let me fix you up.
Wh..a... I yelp, but only ramdom sounds come out, I can't even speak right! Before I have the chance to do anything else, a black wire shoots out of the metal coffin towards me, I clumsily attempt to avoid it, but only manage to trip and fall face-first, the wire doesn't miss that chance and hits the back of my head, then... my memories start to flow back...everything... now I see.
*Beep**Beep* Citizen: Kin, status: Mild brain damage, treatment... ongoing, September 29, 2040, 4:40 - 1st mark.

Again from Scratch Saga: Izmittor Unchained
If someone precious to you needed your help, would you extend it? Would you still do it if it costs you your peace and perhaps even your life? For Tercius, a man mysteriously reborn nearly thirteen years ago, there was only one answer to both questions. Feeling compelled, he sets out to journey to the northern Sogea and its infamous Western Izmittor mountain range, a natural stronghold of sky tearing mountains and deep canyons. Legends about the place abounded, but he knew without a doubt that the hidden valleys, rushing rivers, thick forests, and desolate landscapes hid powerful predators, the likes of which stalk the harsh terrains for an easy source of meat and bones. The many natural dangers of Western Izmittor would be hard enough to navigate safely for a lone traveler, but to make matters worse Tercius had enemies in the heights of Western Izmittor, humans and spirits who would see him dead if they ever learned of his true connection to the Pyramid of Tergaron and the Society of the Magi. To make things even more difficult, he also had to ensure that the true extent of his own Innate Skills remained hidden, for if the prying eyes of the world fell on him and his many secrets came to light, then he would never again know a day of peace. Can one reborn man manage to keep his secrets and still succeed in doing what his conscience compels him to? Will he have to choose one over the other? And can he do any of it without reigniting the sparks of a planetary war the likes of which had not been seen in millennia? Follow Tercius’ story and find out! *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** This story is a continuation of Again from Scratch, a story of mine also posted on RR. Reading it is NOT necessary to read this story, but for anyone who wants to get a little bit more background, here is a link: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/38803/again-from-scratch Again from Scratch was my first journey into writing and I have taken all I learned from that and started writing Again from Scratch Saga, a continuation that is almost stand alone.

The story is available here, on RR, on Webnovel, and on Scribble Hub.The cover was taken from PublicDomainPictures.net and made by one Nona Lohr
