"That is a nice picture you have taken. It captures your friends in this moment in time you know. That is what a photo is, a moment of time that you have chained."
"Amazing imagry that, don't you think? To lash a bit of history, to caputre the soul of chances meetings. But more then that, to remember what has come to pass."
"There are so many moment that I wish I could have captured like that but sadly I am not very skilled with photography. I have seen such sights to make you children weep but never captured them in anything other then sketches."
"They will define you, know that. My moments would read 'Forwards, forwards onto the dawn. The new day awaits, what are you waiting for just reach out and take it. Take it and become a legend. One spoken of for ten thousand years, one that history will remember even if only by the width of you back!'"
"I wonder what immortality you childern will achieve?"
In my youth I saw the world, as a man I showed people the world, and as an old man I inspired people to go out into the world and see what it had to offer. Let that be what is on my tomb stone.
In mongolia there is a mountain that is guarded and forbidin to outsiders. To trespass there is to be killed. i first set foot on the mountian by mistake, I was being chased by a jealous man who hated that a traveler had shown his sweetheart the world. I ran in the dark after he had tried to kill me and come close to succeeding. It was on the mountain that I sought my refuge. I could see it even in the dark.

Well once dawn came I started making my way down from where I had climbed and met one of the old men. He was shocked to see me and I could tell he was angry that I had trespassed so I did what any 'sane' man would have. I brought out the Whisky that I had taken from home and offered him a drink and the story of how I came to be there.
After I told him and shared the bottle with the old man and some of his friends we were quits. They asked me if I had taken anything from the mountian and I told them 'only a night of safe harbor and the tale to go with it.' The friends that I made told me that I should never forget the memories that I had of the place and I promised to send them some whiskey every year on the day. Sometimes I brought it my self but reciently I had it delievered because I could not make the journey on my own. I have writen them each year and told them of some adventure that I had.
They wrote back to me often over the years. Their children and their childrens children still remember me. That is Immortality!

Esper: Search for Power
Dan Martin has a good life. He's respected at his job, and enjoys his work. He is close to his family, and they love and support him. With engaging hobbies, relative financial security, and freedom to learn and pursue his interests, Dan is happy. So it's not particularly welcome when he's selected by an inscrutable and seemingly omnipotent System as a test subject. The downsides: All of this is insane and by any rational analysis he's gonna die. The upsides: Super powers, a cure for a physical disability that had limited him, and above all, so very much to learn (for as long as he can avoid dying). I am very much a beginner as an author, and any feedback or suggestions on how to improve would be deeply appreciated. Chapter releases should be daily for the first two weeks and sporadic after that as I use up my buffer. Please consider this work as a rough draft subject to revision and/or retcon. It is not only my first attempt at original story telling, but at world building and RPG style system design. The latter has been very difficult, even drawing on the brilliant work of many RPGs and LitRPGs for inspiration. Thank you to any willing to give a new story and a new writer a try!

Wonderous Tales of the Northern Kingdoms
A short story collection set in a medieval Fantasy world, "Wonderous Tales of the Northern Kingdoms" takes you to the three kingdoms Seathornia, Sucellie, and Waldbergen. Follow their human and nonhuman inhabitants on their adventures. The stories tell the experiences of:- orphan girl Tilly and her water horse companion Domhnull, - healer Friedbert and his wood sprite foster grandmother Adalberga,- vampire assassin Dragomira,- mountain fairy Blanchefleur,- long-eared slave Otaspes,- King's brother Doderic,- and nightmare Princess Himiltrud. The short stories are interconnected with characters from different stories crossing paths and chronological dependencies. Nonetheless, each story can also be read on its own. The word count ranges from ca. 1800 to 2800 words. The story collection is completed with a total of fifteen short stories and two extras. Although a possible future continuation is generally an option, it is not too likely.*******This is my first time publishing one of my fictions. I am using this short story collection as a way to test the waters before I seriously consider publishing a novel. As English isn't my mother tongue, I would appreciate it if native speakers, anglicists or any other proficient users of the English language could kindly inform me about any mistakes in grammar or word choice so that I may correct it. The same applies to any sentence or paragraph that may sound unnatural in English.

Star Ocean
A space cadet crash lands onto a world unknown to him. Join his struggles as he tries to find a way home------------------------------------------------------------------------------Authors note: I decided to continue this concept. I'm not really good at writing. I just have some few ideas that I want to bring to life. Also, patience is not my virtue so I tend to overpower my characters too quickly. Please feel free to leave comments of your thoughts so that i may avoid this.
