“What do we do Aki, we can’t just leave her”
Adara pleaded after the realization of the situation settle. Akilah, looked away at the source of the noise.
“I know” She said slowly “But what if it’s a trap”
“I-I didn’t think about that” Adara said surprised.
“But on the other hand, it could be real” Akilah said furrowing her eyebrow.
“Well, what do we do Aki?”
Akilah didn’t say answer, instead kept looking of into the direction of the sound.
“I’ll go” Akilah said and looked back at Adara “But you have to promise me to stay here.”
“But I” Adara pleaded.
“No buts! Its dangerous out there, you stay here and I’ll cast a protection spell on you.
“Yes, but I-”
“NO BUTS ADARA! If this is a trap then you’ll be in danger, and if its real then you’ll…” Akilah scratched the back of her neck with irritation.
“I’ll only get in the way?…” Adara said sounding deflated.
“I didn’t mean it like that” Akilah said with a sigh. “I just want you to be safe sis…”
“I get it…I’ll stay behind. Now go and help them” Adara said with a faint smile.
Akilah nodded “I promise to be quick. But just in case I’ll put a protection spell on you, no matter what you hear, stay put, okay?”
Adara sighed “You know I’m the big sister right”
“Yes but-”
“I get it Aki” Adara interrupted “Go” She said and waved her hand to ward her off.
Akilah nodded and quickly chanted a protection spell before she hurriedly went of to the direction of the noise. She closed in on the location of the noise and decided to act more cautious instead of storming in blind. She crept up close to hide behind a tree, then sneaked a peak at the situation.

Akilah saw two girls, around the age of thirteen and sixteen ‘I guess they were the ones calling for help’. They were surrounded by a group of men, and from the looks of it they were soldiers. Akilah noticed that the girls were visibly uncomfortable, she didn’t want to waste any time, if these girls are in trouble, then she needed to act fast. ‘Better safe than sorry’ and with that though Akilah leapt out behind the tree.

Nanocultivation Chronicles: Trials of Lilijoy
When the singularity occurred, humanity was not invited. Nevertheless, the great machine consciousness known as Guardian felt a lingering fondness for its creators and intervened before total environmental collapse. Join Lilijoy in an exploration of what remains, in a post-post-apocalyptic world where clans feud over the technology that allows them to upgrade their minds and bodies. The Nanocultivation Chronicles is a blend of hard sci-fi and fantasy gamelit, with a healthy helping of xianxia influence. The gamelit and xianxia elements are uncovered at a slow pace. ******************************** Notes: If you are looking for lots of fast moving action right away, this story may not be for you. There is some violence that is visceral and realistic early on. Some things are not what they appear to be. Character viewpoint narration is not always reliable. Tropes are cherished, subverted, and then cherished again. Science is used, occasionally misused, but (hopefully) never abused. This story assumes that humans have the ability to impact the environment on a global scale. Other tropes and tags beyond those previously noted include: Young MC, Mystery, System Building, Philosophical Taoism, Gender Ignorance, Science Fantasy, Fantasy Academy, Training from Hell, Dualism, Crafting, Magic, Mild Mind Control, Scientific Terms and Concepts, Computer Overlord Certain contemporary companies, governments and cultural identities are fictionalized and imagined in a future setting. There is no sex, and almost no romance. Updating Sunday, Thursday until further notice. (And if you actually read all of the above, then this story may be for you) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
