《Unknown Past》Volume 1 Chapter 6: Departures, Part 2: Hunter's Perspective
Advertisement
It has been about one day since their plan failed. It was all over the news. The stories of the "miracle awakenings" following the "comatose cases" were the main headlines, but one important part of these stories was what happened with the upper class. With over half of those rich bastards dead, much of the city's revenue was lost. Plus, the high casualty rate and property damage also resulted in plenty of other unforeseen costs. For this reason, as proposed by one of the younger rich men, a new economic system in favor of better economic stability was proposed and accepted. My guess is that fear was the only reason those other assholes agreed.
This actually is a bad thing. I was hoping to get their money for myself and my master, when Dodge and Chates kicked the rich men out of power.
But no matter. Once I find what I'm looking for, I think I will be satisfied.
Although it's in shambles, the apartment Dodge and Chates hid in before the final conflict still has much of its documents intact. I searched through their bookshelves, and, after finding a special hidden box as well as the keys to open it, I have found the documents I have been searching for.
"Although it didn't end as planned, I suppose I can say phase one of our master plan was a success."
On my way out, I hear some familiar sounds. Dodge's video game. I listen for the sound and find his gaming system under some of the rubble. The game is still on and working, much to my surprise. The only noticeable damage I see is a chip in the screen. I look at what Dodge was doing and see that the battery is low and about to run out. On the screen, it says,

"There is a questionnaire. Would you like to fill it out?"
I think for a second, then click "yes." A new screen, with "Questionnaire" at the top, comes up, with four lines below it already filled out.
And in those four lines, Dodge chose the following words:
All Is Forever Too Late
A second later, the system blacks out.

Jackal Among Snakes: GameLit Fantasy Progression
The royal bastard of House Vasquer, Argrave, has changed after his stay studying magic at the Tower of the Gray Owl. The sickly man's awkward posture and cruel behavior have been replaced with a neat dignity and acerbic wit. His listless life has found a path of undeniable purpose. Most come away thinking he seems to know too many details about too much. Few can claim to know his motives or his goals. Behind the scenes, though, the primary contributor for an open-world RPG's wiki battles existential dread and things far beyond his ken as he struggles to adapt to a grim, gothic fantasy world that he had the misfortune to claim as his favorite game. This is his tale. #####What to expect from this story##### This piece is a high-fantasy style story, featuring many of the species and surroundings one might expect to find in such a world. The cultures are original and well-developed, with the primary setting being a European-style feudal society. Warfare, fell beasts, and natural disasters are commonplace in Berendar, and take the center of many plots. The protagonist is a smooth-talker, but the world does not exist for him; he must struggle to gain power. Expect daily releases until we catch up to my backlog.

Death Drive
In the near future, most work has been relegated to machines and people are content to spend their time immersed in virtual reality, something they cannot get enough of. Thomas Walker, an ex-racecar driver who blames the hidden algorithms that run society for losing everything that is important to him, finds himself at the center of a string of bizarre vehicular attacks and becomes assured that someone is out to get him. Meanwhile, Lucas Bennett, an anxiety-ridden software engineer, is contracted by the leading artificial intelligence corporation in the US to decipher the inner workings of their flagship AI that have become incomprehensible even to themselves, a job that he is very invested in since he considers technology the solution to his personal as well as mankind’s timeless problems. Unknown to the public at large, the CEO of the company is bent on unleashing the full capabilities of that AI to handle every single aspect of society and individual lives. When all hell breaks loose, the two men and those close to them team up to survive and fight back against the horde of vehicular attackers and the Intelligence behind them while also clashing together over their views: is artificial intelligence a way to humanity’s salvation or doom? Betrayal abounds, nothing is as it seems and the traffic is a real killer. The story is finished and I will be publishing a new chapter every Friday.
