《World Integration》Chapter 1: The Prologue
Advertisement
'This world is so boring.' The boy thought so to himself, grimacing slightly as he scrutinises his brows.
The boy thought, 'I really hope that something change or at least something interesting would happen.'
'Something like after waking up, having found that the world that we knew it has had suddenly changed. It had become very game-like, combined with fictional world elements, with role-playing RPG levelling mechanics and such...' The boy came up with many interesting ideas, so many to hardly count, as he then becomes immersed within his tiny little world.
'I mean literally anything could be better than living in this boring dumb of a world at the moment.' The boy thought.
And then a mysterious voice spoke back to him through telepathy, "Well then, let me grant you that foolish wish of yours. Boy."
"Wha-! Who are you? Or where exactly are you?" The boy hurriedly said.
He then panics, showcasing a frightened expression, like a scared child. He then immediately gets up from his bed, in which he was laying down on his mattress a few seconds ago, to have a quick look at his surrounding.
However, having found no one there, or anything strange and unsuspecting in the room that may catch his eye. He was then confused.
'Was I hallucinating something or just plainly hearing things after having no social contacts with people for so long.' He thought.
"I am nowhere near you. And no, I'm definitely am not a figure of your imagination. So you are not hearing things." The mysterious voice then spoke to the boy through mental telepathy from another different place, or possibly a different plane of existence entirely.
The mysterious voice then immediately gets right down to business, as he said to the boy. "Ragnarok is nearing. So I am here to possibly gather up any potential ideas for the upcoming change, and then I happened to have encountered a thoughtful child like you with such great ideas."
"So I've then decided to talk with you before I set the strange idea that you've imagined up into motion." The mysterious voice said.
'Ragnarok is coming. So you are basically going to change the world, and wanted to have a little talk with me first for my opinion?' The boy asked the mysterious voice.
"That is basically the point, yeah." The mysterious voice answered.
A thought curiously crossed his mind, which then in turns turned into unanswered questions. So he then decided to perk up his courage in order to ask the mysterious voice and enquire about its identity and origins.

'So first off, who are you?' The boy asked the mysterious voice.
"Me? I am the God of Chaos and Mischief, Loki!" The mysterious voice answered, which was certainly a great surprise towards the boy. It thereby left him with even more unanswered questions.
"You're Loki the God of Mischief. The Loki, the God of Mischief from Norse Mythology!" The boy said, with quivering lips, as his body is visibly shaken at the mere idea of talking and actually having a conversation with a true god.
"Yes, I am true that Loki! However, I am not the same one as the handsome fictional Loki that you guys created for your own personal entertainment and cinematography. Though, I wished that my actual self was that handsome as Tom Hiddleston." Loki spoke about himself with a deep sense of regret, lowering his self-esteem a bit, before sighing.
"Oh, boy..." The boy responded slightly at a loss for words about what to say.
Loki then forcefully changed the subject at hand, regarding the importance of his past actions, which is recorded in Norse Mythology. "I am the one that started and caused the previous Ragnarok which took millions of human lives millenias ago. Not only wreaking havoc in the Divine World but also on Middle Earth as well. Though times have changed, there is still many repercussion of my past actions that have managed to create, fabricate, and shape the world's history as it is today."
"And many of the Old Gods from various races and religion have decided to renounce their old ways; from living a barbaric lifestyle to a more modern carefree lifestyle amongst the humans, thereby adapting to the recent changes and technology advancements. And it's time to change that." Loki said to the boy with a look of difference in his tone of voice.
"So let me get this right. Not only are you are a God, but you are planning on starting a second Ragnarok to order to restart the world and bring in a new beginning. So you want my opinion." The boy said so in order to get the summary of whatever Loki just recently said.
"Well, you've pretty much gotten what my intention is, right!" Loki nonchalantly said, without a care in the world.
'I just feel so dumb right now. A god literally started talking to me, saying that he wanted to ask for my opinion on the new type of world that he is gonna be putting the Earth through. I certainly hope that he would make it to have a game like mechanics.' The boy thought so to himself, filled with wishful thinking.

"So far, I am currently going to combine a bunch of mini-dimensions together, thereby combining it all into one, including this world as well," Loki said which manages to garner the boy's interest.
Loki then continues, "The worlds will definitely have a more fantasy element like swords and magic, monsters and magical beasts for the magic system. Whilst, at the same time, for those who like sci-fi and space so much. There is the futuristic system which includes espers, mutants, and such. Inspired by many famous works of art, movie cinematography, and the superheroes world..."
"And lastly there is the cultivation world, filled to the brim with martial arts, daoist, devils, and fairies. The so-called Chinese people's most favourite type of literature and culture focused on the many sophisticated mysteries of the world. All being combined into one. I just feel like I am missing something, so I came to ask if you know what it is." Loki recollected, as he then asks the boy for a little advice.
'That is certainly amazing.' The boy thought, and couldn't but contain his excitement and glee.
"Well, if you really thinking about combining all of those worlds together to form a large one, then maybe you should think about adding in a System in order to regulate and control the source of information, like a database. Basically, the system shows the people their statuses which will certainly have all of their own personal information recorded, like their name, race, gender, age, and occupation." The boy suggested which seem to further catch Loki's interest.
"Then you can put in things like classes, like those that you would see in RPG type of games. For instance Dungeon & Dragons as an example, and also a store function in the system in which can buy and exchange an item from the system store. People would earn points for the store by killing monsters, completing quests, and stuff." The boy finally finishes speaking.
"That sounds like a freaking amazing idea! Can't wait to tell Odin and Athena about this! I love it! Since you gave me such a good idea, and I like you. I will let you have any one thing that you want and wish of." Loki said, granting anything the boy wishes and so-called greatest desires. If he certainly wishes for it.
"Then I want my own personal inventory storage space that only I can access." The boy didn't even hesitate to ask.
Normally, in time like this where the world had suddenly become an apocalypse. The things that you would be able to carry would be extremely limited, and possibly affect your chances of survival if you are not ready and prepare for any types of danger.
"Hmmm..." Loki is thinking to himself.
"A smart choice, though I was certainly expecting something much grander like possibly immortality, eternal youth, or endless wealth to be used in the system store. Not a personal inventory space. But it is certainly doable with whatever little amounts of divinity that I may possess." Loki said in a haughty tone, whilst displaying his abilities as a God of this world.
After he said this, there was then a big announcement that was made to the world to every individual that is living on this planet. Even those with little amounts of intelligence, so long as you are a living breathing creature or plant. You are definitely not affected by Loki's divinity.
Ding!
The sound of the notification screen and a blue screen panel then appears in front of everyone that is on Earth.
System Notice
Hello, Mortals!
For it is I, Loki the God of Mischief and Chaos.
Today I am going to tell you something interesting. I and the other Gods have then decided to join together to make this world a little more interesting.
As of this day, I will be merging a load off your worlds together into one, such as fantasy worlds with sword and magic, cultivation worlds with immortals, devils, and fairies. Futuristic worlds where humans have developed into superhumans with superpowers, mutants and such. You name it!
I'm taking all of the ideas you mortals have put into your novels and bringing them to life, all in one big world. So don't disappoint me now, Mortals!
P.S You only have a duration of 1 hour in order to prepare yourself for the proper integration of all the other worlds.

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
