《Shadowlove (Lite)》Chapter 30: A Dream Come True
Advertisement
As Yasuline and the White Reaper continue to go down on the highest bridge of the Labyrinth, she would resume her practicing with the sword. Going back and forth with her arms once one of them tires out form the constant swinging. She particularly enjoyed the small glow it gives off and the noticeable glow it would have when swinging it at full speed. Along with the map, the scroll also contained an interesting note from the Adventure King himself about the weapon.
"What you have here is a one of a kind weapon that should belong in the hands of a true adventurer. And that someone is you. You who have completed all my trials. Whether I live to see you or not doesn't matter, in my eyes, you are like me. But enough of that! This weapon came from the Drago Isles high in the sky. It is a prototype magic sword that was supposed to be the first of many like it. It would allow magic-users to be able to use their magic with this sword in place of a staff or wand. Truly, it would have brought out a new battle class for everyone to use if they had purchased one. It even allows non-magic users to either learn magic through it, or temporarily be a magic-user if they want. The magic energy is stored in the blade itself. Use it well and may your future adventures be as fun and cherishable as mine were. Signed, the Adventure King of New Legends."
"So with this sword, I can cast some magic. That'll be handy. Maybe I can ask my mom about some spells and try to see if I can use them. Would be hard to hide it." She would speak up after reading through the note once again. Party to herself, but also to the White Reaper who was walking behind her to ensure he doesn't get accidentally struck by her clumsy swings. After a few more swinging, her arm would slow down to a stop and she would also stop walking. The White Reaper would look at her with a curious look. She turns around and looks at him, with a bit of a melancholy-like expression.

"You know, I don't think I can really thank you enough for what you did." She would say to him. He would give off a shrug, a gesture that would seem that it was "No big deal." She would shake her head and clarify. "It's not something so small, least to me it isn't. I never left the castle before in all the eighteen years I have been on Atlas. I never got to meet and make friends except if they visit the castle itself or work there. And I never would have been able to prove to myself that I really have what it takes to be an adventurer just like the Adventure King and my father. When I think about it, there were times I wondered if I just wasn't good enough to be an adventurer and that's why Caliber and my dad decided to keep me in the castle." Memories of the times he or her father constantly telling her various excuses as to why they wouldn't allow her to leave the castle, let alone go into the capital. From saying it was because she was too young, too inexperienced, to promising when she is old enough. It became obvious that they had many reasons and the biggest one being that they didn't trust her to be careful. Of course, she often proved their point when she sometimes puts herself in danger even within the walls of her home.
She had her head lowered when she revealed such a thing to him, someone she had only met and befriended for a few days. Nonetheless, he was someone she felt she could trust this too. She had nobody else to open herself too, she thought she didn't need to. But she definitely felt her shoulders feeling less stiff after that. She would raise her head up to look him in the eye and smile as genuinely as possible. "I'm just trying to say I glad we met."

The White Reaper didn't seem to have much of a response. He looked at her, quiet as always, for a few seconds before he nodded his head and gives her a thumbs up. A typical response from him. Expecting nothing less, she would giggle and gestures a thumbs-up back at him.
Their moment would abruptly end when they head of a "Yowl!" or something familiar to it echoed to their ears from down below and just up ahead of where they were heading to.
"Did you hear that?" Yasu would say instinctively, half-expecting Ann to respond to her. "It sounded like a person. Could it be one of the adventurers that have been looking for this place?"
"Hmm, We should be focused on taking me home, I don't want to end up worrying mom and dad about me when I should be in my room all day. But I really want to see how the experienced adventurers go about in the labyrinth. Maybe a tiny peek wouldn't be so bad, right?" She debated with herself and looks over at the White Reaper for his opinion. Of course, he didn't share one and would simply shrug. "Sometimes, you make it hard for me to say such nice things. I say we go check it out."
She would put her sword back into the scabbard that was connected to the belt of her outfit and begins to jog ahead with the White Reaper following behind her.

Project TheirWorld: Book Two - Tatterskin
**IMPORTANT: Because I am trying to reconcile some of the consistancy issues due to unexpected changes in how I've decided to write the story, this story is to be renamed/reordered. I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience. The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) is now to be concidered as Book One of Tatterskin. Tatterskin will contiune without real inturruption, though "Book Two" is really going to be the rest of the series with multiple volumes. Sorry guys! I've gone and brought the chaos of my real life into the storyverse T-T. ----- Dassah Graydon was just another human woman looking for adventure in her life when she moved to the academic floating continent, the Enclave. But while she wanted to escape her mundane reality, she quickly discovers that her life there – with the exception of all the crazy aliens and the unusual setting – was no different than her life on Earth had been. After spending a couple of months getting used to the place, she finally got the chance to play the popular new VRMMORPG, TheirWorld. As she is drawn deeper and deeper into the game, however, she begins to realize that her in-game life is far more connected to the happenings of reality than she could have imagined. Finding herself in the middle of a conspiracy that threatens her life and the lives of the people around her, Dassah must decide whether she allows herself to be a puppet, or she finds the determination to become the master of her own fate. This is a Project: TheirWorld story, and there is a prequel story, The Tutorial (completed, but unedited) but if I am doing my job, you won't need to have read that to enjoy this one. ____ The story will usually update once a week, sometime on Fridays JST. The updates on Royal Road L will be about 1 chapter behind my main WordPress site found here: Project: TheirWorld. This will change, as the WordPress site will have holiday releases and RRL will not. Thank you for reading, and the support! :) ____

The Shadow That Preludes Death (The Favoured)
Magic and fantastical beasts run wild on the countless worlds of the Fabric. Deities take an active interest in the Fabric. The Favoured, immortal mages of immense power vie for territory and power in the Fabric. Umbra a naive ward of the Duke is almost Grown and that means she will need to take an apprenticeship. The issue is she isn't good at anything, but she catches the eye of a master of magic, he thinks she might be one of the fabled Protectors the ones that would save them from the coming destruction. But Umbra isn't the hero everyone wants her to be. Updates will at least one chapter every two days. Notable Location Poliagoras. Poliagoras is the most important world in the Fabric partly due to it being the centre of everything both literally and metaphorically. Trade, commerce, travel, and politics are all conducted primarily on Poliagoras, it has the biggest city in the fabric stretching to cover almost the entire world. It also holds all the known Great portals in the Fabric which are the only way to travel to other worlds. Even without these things, Poliagoras would still be the most important world in the Fabric as it is home to the largest population of Favoured. They were mages chosen by the Deities and given the potential to become more than mortal. I cannot overstate how appreciated constructive criticism is. This is the first story I have written of my own volition so even a small comment on how I could improve would be great. The current title is most definitely a working one. I know it isn't great.
