《Age of Swordsmen Online》3.3 Shelter and Search

They both started to look around them, but only saw people confused, just as them, or running around with seemingly no aim at all.
"Hey Itaka."
"Huh?" He looked at him questioningly.
"Did you notice that everyone, including us, has almost the exact same clothes."
Kyaga was right, almost everyone around them wore the exact same outfit: black leather boots, brown pants, a white t-shirt, and a brown, medieval-looking vest.
"Yeah." Said Itaka, almost as if it was the most normal thing ever.
'What could all of this mean!?' Asked Kyaga himself. 'Is this a dream, or what?'
Kyaga pinched himself to make sure he wasn't just to be sure. "Ouch!"
Itaka looked over to him. "What are you doing?"
"Oh, Uhh… Nothing." Kyaga said while scratching his head. "You've got any plans Itaka?"
Itaka looked away skeptical and thought for a few seconds.
"Maybe we can find out a bit more where exactly we are and how big this place is, because standing here will most certainly not achieve anything."
"Good idea, we should maybe seek out a high building to get a good view."
"Yeah, we should have quite a good view from up there." Itaka pointed to the only high building that stood out from all the others, a church nearby. "Let's go fast."
They both ran towards it, trying to avoid any people. You could hear some cry and some screaming out names, seemingly searching for people. Some were standing together in groups, while others just stood there alone, or ran in any direction.
After the quick, but tough run they both took a breath, and entered the medieval, and magnificent church. The doors were heavy but still pushed open easily. With a loud bang from the doors a big, wide room, with at least 50 benches, a majestic altar, and countless, impressive and beautiful painting on the walls and on the ceiling opened for them.

Itaka and Kanagaki marveled but quickly regained their consciousness.
"No time to waste Kyaga, we got to go."
"Yeah, you're right."
They quickly spotted the staircase which let up to the clock tower. They were just about to take the first step when they heard a loud noise behind them and twitched.
It was the door that opened and revealed a silhouette. They couldn't really make out the outlines of whoever just entered the church, because the light-flooded in from behind the person.
But once it closed, they could make it out very fast. "Shizuka!" Screamed Kyaga as he and Itaka ran towards her.
"Kyaga, Itaka. Is it you guys!?" She said more than happy.
Kyaga and her hugged deep and they didn't let go for at least ten seconds.
"What a relief that we found you." Said Kyaga worried.
"Yeah, I'm so happy." Shizuka was almost crying now.
"Are you okay?" Asked Itaka. "Did anything happen?"
"No, not really. I was just really scared." To see Shizuka, who never was a very emotional person, but rather a brave and happy person, or at least not in the game, almost crying was a shock for both Itaka and Kyaga. "Do you have any idea what's going on?"
"No, not really, we wanted to check on the tower to get a better view and maybe find out something." Said Itaka.
"That's why I got here too, at least we are smart, huh?" She said a bit ironic and they all had a small laugh.
"Is it okay if we leave you here for a few moments, in case Kanagaki has the same idea as us? Me and Itaka will go up real quick."
"Yeah, that's okay, I will be fine."

Lacraea: The Slow Journey To riches [HIATUS]
Darren was a successful businessman, founder of the biggest publishing studio AoE studios. He lived a good life that is, until he dies. He's given a choice. either he goes to the traditional heaven, where theres no internet, TV , meat, and sex OR he goes to a fantasy world like the many his company has published. Defeat a big bad boss and become filthy rich. Theres a catch though. unlike fantasy games, the people here are not NPCs to be trifled with mundane quests, the lowest level monsters that are usually cannon fodder in games are strong and fight for their lives like any living being would, The harsh economy of medieval times, the various languages and cultures of different races, and the politics and intrigue playing in the background with a war looming on the horizon. Oh and no respawns. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ No OP characters, No chosen one,and no "oh I did something that MILLIONS of other people just didn't think to do". I am also going to try my best to stick with realism. what a guy transported to medieval times would likely do with zero knowledge of cultures or combat aside from a few TV shows. If you're looking for a powerful chosen one who defeats scores of enemies without even looking, or who finds an ancient artifact to defeat a dark lord this isn't it.

A Bloody Game
Eric Hunter, a boy who took a gamble with his life on the line, soon finds out that the pay off took a very different direction that he thought. Having just awoken from a pre-op only to find himself confused and all alone in a changed world and a hospital consumed by chaos he must do all he can to survive. In a new world where society crumbles and laws are merely pretty words on written paper, how will a boy who has been restricted his whole life live now that there is nothing to hold him back? When everything turns into a zero sum game of dog eat dog, they'll find that The Hunter is an all too willing participant, but he will soon find out that he isn't the only player of this game. First story I'm posting and I don't really have a cool synopsis, sorry everyone, but this story is just another LitRPG apocalypse. I guess the only difference is that the main character isn't a hero. He's not here to save the world, he's not here to make friends, and he's definitely not here to save everyone. He's probably what the villains in other similar stories would be actually. Just writing for fun, advice or constructive critism is welcomed, writing style prone to change. Warning: Incredible amounts of poor grammar, Gore, Profanities, Traumatizing content, and cliches(I plan to have multiple main characters, maybe this is too ambitious for my poor skills, but it seems like it would be fun to try, the other MCs won't show up until later on.) The cover image isn't mine I just found it online. It's a piece by Stephanie Frey This takes inspiration from a lot of great stories on here, but I find the beginning to be most similar to Blood Lust by DefinitelyNotJormlung. Starcraft and Warhammer 40k and survival world rpg by S_Conary will also influenced this (at least that's my plan if I ever get that far or finish this) Also please stay with me until chapter 3. I suck at starting stories, but have been told I get better as I'm further along.

Elder's Game
In a world set upon by an ancient threat, a new cycle of civilisation competes for power and resources. Amidst the games and politicking of Elder beings, the masses are unknowingly ensnared in plots and schemes that were centuries in the making. At the heart of the world’s workings lies the Tyreal Valley—a land that promises to fulfil the desires of those who seek it. As a haven for the truly strong, the path to this promise is paved more often than not in warfare and blood. To two young stragglers fighting for more than just their own fates, it is left as their only answer. But maybe that’s just what their enemies want. Magic system vaguely similar to GameLit ones (no system nor interface to help), with certain elements that are a bit more analogue. Politics, war, looming apocalypse, a tiny dash of kingdom building, and a minor bit of crafting. There is a bit of a progression element as well as both environmental and cultural exploration. The story follows two youths more directly influenced by aforementioned Elder beings than most. Neither lead cares for politics but certain situations force them into participating, forcing them to make decisions that shape their morality. Initially, the focus is on the male lead as he comes of age in an environment with little scope to change his future, only to be thrust into new circumstances that permanently kill some of his hopes. 3k words every chapter
