《-The World Saga-》Chapter 47: Visions
Advertisement
“The world is doomed.” Father sits at his throne looking at his sons. His first son looks up at him.
“Father. Is there any way we can save it?” A loud clap rings out over the white room causing a few cracks to run up the wall.
“Nothing can help it. We can do nothing as long as he remains down there. His power is strong enough to kill us all.” The second brother looks up at him.
“Maybe our...” Another loud clap rings out.
“My daughter is gone. I cannot find her in all of the world down there.” The third one looks up at him.
“What about the girl Father?” Father pauses thinking over something.
“Hmm... perhaps she can do something.” Another loud clap rings out throughout the white room. The fourth one looks up.
“How do we get her the message Father?” Father looks down into an orb at the center of the room. The four brothers look at each other as the second one stands up. Father looks at his son.
“Thank you, my son.” The room starts to swirl as I sit up in my bed holding my head. I hear someone sparring outside as I stand up from my bed. I go over to the dresser looking into the mirror. My light green eyes shine in the light. I look at the recent haircut I got instantly regretting it. It makes me look more like a child. I put on some clothes that hang from my body. I head downstairs going to the kitchen. I make some eggs bringing them over to Zona’s room. I knock on the door slightly opening it.
“Zona... I brought you some food.” I look in to see Zona still in her bed covered up in blankets. I sigh bringing over the plate sitting it next to her bed. I take the other plate I made for her last night. She hasn’t eaten anything for a few days now. I go to touch her but the flame in the fireplace flares up. I slowly back out of the room. The fire slowly goes down as I close the door. I head back to the kitchen dumping out the food. I look outside to see Jake training with a sword. Jake has opened a little bit these last couple months. Instead of the constant demands, he has developed some normal human feelings. I walk outside watching Jake spear. He knocks the dummy over one last time before looking over at me.

“Instead of standing there, I could teach you how to fight.” I roll my eyes leaning against the wall.
“I would rather have someone who actually could say a positive comment instead of a jerk who control issues.” Jake slightly smirks walking over to me. I forgave him from what happened with James. Jake didn’t ask to be brought back. The people responsible for Jake being brought back have disappeared. Roasland and his gang of doctors. Jake searches for them whenever he isn’t on a mission for Lord Lionheart or training.
“Such a shame. You could be an excellent fighter. Your small frame gives you an advantage.” I stop somewhat shocked at the compliment.
“How so?” He walks over drinking from a cup. His body is wet from his workout and training.
“People would underestimate you.” I huff sitting on the steps that lead to his house.
“I had another vision, I think. It was a little hazy, but I think one of them is coming for Zona.” Jake looks at me unamused.
“Why?” I shrug.
“She is the only person who can defeat Grant. The gods are terrified of Grant. Said that he could actually kill them.” Jake grumbles dipping his cup in a nearby bucket.
“I thought only a god could kill these things.” I shrug starting to feel bad for her.
“I still don’t know what or how my visions work. Maybe Zona has godlike abilities. But...” Jake finishes the rest of his drink placing the cup next to the bucket.
“Well if Zona is not going to do anything about Grant, it is going to have to be us.” I sigh looking up at the sky. For the first time in all of history, the Green Belt is experiencing snow. At first, people started freaking out not understanding where all the snow was coming from. The military has ensured us that these were effects from the Church of the Brothers. As far as anyone knows, the church is all but gone now. With everyone turning against them, they all left. “Also. I am ready for our session.”

“Oh okay. Lead the way.” Jake leads me to his bedroom. I’ve been coming to grips with my not so magical abilities. My headaches aren’t as bad as they once where and I can somewhat control my visions. Apparently, he can’t die if his sister is alive. Explaining how he survived the attacks from his friends. I really don’t fully understand what I am doing but I try my best to keep my promise. Once in the bedroom, Jake lays on the bed trying to relax. I grab ahold of his arm images fill my head.
Anna runs through a snowy mountain range play. She jumps over a fallen tree hiding underneath it. Something jumps over it sniffing the air. The creature looks human except for the black veins on it’s body. It looks at Anna as a tendril rushes toward her. I let go of Jake trying to catch myself on the bed. Jake catches me lifting me back to my feet. “What did you see?” He asks somewhat impatiently. I’ve noticed when it comes to his sister; he is impatient.
“I saw the same creature from before.” He hides his anger standing up.
“Alright.” He stomps out of the room. I sigh sitting on his bed. My minor headache slowly leaves me. I stand up leaving the room to hear someone banging on the front door. I open it to see a solider standing there. I look at him waiting for him to speak.
“Is Captain Jake home miss?” Jake comes from the kitchen looking a little more calmed.
“What is it soldier?” The solider digs into his bag handing over a letter. Jake takes it reading it over.
“Monsters are attacking again?” The soldier nods.
“Yes sir. There have been multiple attacks on the road’s miles north of here. Lord Lionheart is declaring a final war on the Northern Savages.” Jake frowns putting the message away.
“Very well. I will meet with him later to discuss the tactics.” The messenger nods leaving the house. Jake closes the door looking at me.
“You need to convince Zona Everlast to get up. We are going to be moving soon.” I pause slightly shocked.
“Why are the monsters attacking again?”
“Maybe Grant? I have no idea. I need to talk to Lord Lionheart to figure it out.” Lord Lionheart has been a blessing in disguise for us. He let Jake back in his position as a high-ranking captain. He pardoned Zona for her supposed crimes. I would honestly call him a friend.
“Wait. how am I supposed to get Zona up?” He shrugs heading to his room.
“Guess you will have to figure it out.”

A-Live AI
The year is 2247. For almost two hundred years Sentient AI research has been banned. Everyone knew this, and yet no one has ever given up on finding the perfect setup for it. Restricted AI are rare, but possible to get ahold of if you have the money and the clout to get through the law for it. Especially when it deals with the military. Alfred Homis is an engineer and has spent the last three years working for the United Terran Military's Research and Exploration Department. Specifically to help build a 'shackled' AI who's prime directive was to explore potentially habitable worlds. Worlds that are far cheaper to colonize and add to the United Terran Directorate's fold than terraforming. During the AI's maiden voyage things go horribly wrong, taking Alfred Homis along for the ride. Thrown into a parallel universe where the laws of physics are just a little messed up, Alfred finds himself trapped inside the very machine he'd helped to build. Add magic, hostile fantasy creatures, and two different pantheons of 'Gods' to the mix and things get even more complicated. Oh, and an invasion between universes to boot. But that's just all in a days work though for Alfred, the AI Lord. Authors Note: Hi guys! Long time no see. And yes, I know that's all on me. But I blame life for that. Anyway, this is my new work, and I hope you guys enjoy it! The chapters are a little shorter than I'd previously posted in my other stories, but I cannot say that I have the same amount of time or energy to write them like that anymore. Sorry about that. Still, some warnings: There is cursing in this story. I am not going to edit it out. There will be sexual content later. Blood, gore and cruel depictions are all planned. If that isn't your thing, I'd suggest you turn back now. There is also my dry, and often not-so-funny sense of humor. And oh, it's all in first person gain. Haha. I just tend to write better that way. If none of that bothers you, then enjoy the read! Feel free to comment, point out mistakes, or make suggestions! Reviews are nice too, but please lay off the criticism until the story gets good and going. Thank you. Note 1: Some edits to the synopsis.

Hiraeth: Promise of the World
On a rainy night, a young woman is transported to the enchanting world of Sol'h'meyr. Thrilled to be freed from the shackles of monetary survival and societal expectations on Earth, she embraces her newfound existence and magical powers bestowed. But the rose-tinted fantasy life she always dreamed of turns out to be a stark reality that poses to kill her if she doesn't adapt and let go of her past. Essairyn battles both cripping nostalgia and imminent danger in her journey from the Spirit and Demon Forest to the human realm of As'pyze. Disillusionment leading to anger has erupted into violence across the deceptively peaceful land. New friends and allies gather by her side, but tragedy and betrayal lurk closer than she realizes.

The original version of the first book was published on RR in 2019 and has since seen multiple revisions based on reader feedback with this one as the final and official fourth version before the second book. While the entire series story has undergone major changes in the last year, all books have been planned since the beginning of writing. It is also my second wish to eventually make this story into a webcomic, either by myself or with a team if possible. Thank you for taking this journey with me, and enjoy reading! ( You can alternatively read books in the series as standalone fictions, but they connect to one another though a running theme and mystery that evolves and progresses with the main character. ) Alternate Blurb for the Singularity Cycle series: Essairyn had never felt truly alive on Earth. It felt like something was missing ever since she was born, but even after nearly 20 years of mundane living, she could never pinpoint what this or the emptiness in her heart was. Suddenly, she awakens in a grandiose, primordial forest and encounters mythical creatures beyond her restless imagination in a parallel world called Sol'h'meyr. She befriends, in particular, a sassy fox-spirit named Akari who reincarnated after three millennia. Essairyn is gifted with abnormal magic, and Akari is being chased by those of her dark past. Together, they set out on an adventure in a world more dangerous than its beautiful facade could hide. Finding new friends along a path riddled with tragedy, Essairyn must learn who to trust as deceit and betrayal lie behind kindly faces. Life in this deceptively promising world slowly spirals down a path of no return. This is not a game, but cruel reality. Her simple adventure became the modest beginnings in a chain of disruptions that tore even the dimensional fabric of time and space. No one, not even Essairyn, was who she thought they were. And not even the fickle gods could change the time-worn destiny of the universes... A single promise shook eternity’s existence.
