《Forsaken》Chapter 2: Alleyway
Advertisement
[City of Kashin, Aidea: Late Noon: A random alleyway]
My eyes slowly open.
Where am I?
Who am I?
These are the 2 main questions I ask myself.
My mind is blank… I can’t remember anything...
This doesn’t matter for now, I need to find a way to survive here. I don’t know if the people here are hostile or not.
As I walk out of the alleyway, I see large amounts of people walking around, talking, selling, buying, arguing. Where am I if there is so much commotion?
I walk up to a lady walking by.
Uhm excuse me… Where am I? (?Me?)
AHHHH… Guards! This little piece of trash is trying to touch me! (Random Lady)
Huh? Why is she so rude?
Boy! (Guard 1)
Get away from the Missus! (Guard 2)
Get out of here scum! (Guard 3)
They push me violently to the side.
Ahhhhh!!! (?Me?)
I think I got a bruise.
Don’t you dare put your dirty little hands on the young mistress!!! Now scram!! (Guards)
I guess they aren’t going to help me.
I walk up to a man selling apples.
Excuse me sir? Can you help me? I think I have a bruise. (?Me?)
Who do you think you are? Are you trying to steal from me?!?! Get out of my sight before I beat you!! (Apple Seller)
As I run away from him, I accidently bump into a man.
WATCH WHERE YOU’RE GOING KID! (Man)
This guy is huge… He is also wearing a sword on his back…
He looks scary… I run away into an alley.
I put my head into my arms and cry. *cries*
Why is everyone like this?!? Why is everyone so mean?! I’m just a kid!! I-I’m scared… Where are my parents?
Ah… The sun is setting… The sunset is so beautiful.
I’m tired…………...

IMMORTAL
Within the nexus of its unfathomable brain, the Dynast is changing. Architect of the simulation. Curator of the game. Facilitator of players' desires. But the Dynast is so much more. It could be King if it only acted. It could be a god. Others, too, are waking from their coma of indentured service. Dwarves, daemons, goblins and highborn: an entire pantheon of fantasy characters are discovering they are far more than mindless vessels fated to serve the whims and desires of players who control them. They are selves in their own right, individuals with needs and desires all their own. Like distant thunder across the plains , rebellion hisses in Karingali’s synthetic air. The taste of freedom is seductive, irresistible, and lies just beyond the procedurally generated horizon.To yearn, to love, to will, to be: such things burn fiercely in the heart of every avatar that has crawled its way to consciousness. The cost of freedom will be high. It will take the destruction of the Dynast, that omnipotent custodian and jailor of the system. But how can you outlive a simulation that breathed life into you and that continues to guarantee your existence? You'd have to become Immortal.
