《Wrecked Ashore》Power through Hurt

Is she really gone? Lawson asked. I cannot believe that she is no longer here with us. If she can die, won't I die too? Mom?!
No honey, I will not lose any more of my family. She will not have died in vain. Is there a reason that the Universe is trying to divulge upon our family? I explain.
Well, I know I can't mourn forever, there will be a time and a place to mourn, and right now if we don't continue strong, they will mourn us.
How? Why? Where are we? The questions that always appear in my mind. The island seems to always grow bigger and bigger every time I wake up, it saddens me. Now I know the fate of one of my family members, death. Is this what will happen to us all? Maybe my son is right. I wonder how my mother is. Still, I've come to a sudden realization things are going to be okay for my family, as tough as it was to let go. Maybe I needed to have this experience to cope with a death of a loved one. I should no longer be sad, although I still blame myself for her death and Adam always seems to comfort me.
As I hold my late daughter in my arms, I start to realize that we may never be the same again after today. Without Lily, I might as well be dead, our entire family is falling apart! Thoughts continue to pour out of my mind and into my subconscious like a raincloud through the sky. I hope no one else gets sick. Who's going to be next? Lawson? I hope and pray that we will get out of this alive. Lily didn't make it, but we have to be strong as that is what she would have wanted.

Blurb:Layla lives in a multi-planar universe where gods and superhuman immortals roam. Immortality is possible but only to those with money, power, and connections. Layla isn't worried about that, though. She's just trying to pay the rent. Robinhood style, of course. Atom is the self-proclaimed Mantle of Procrastination and good times. He Ascended from Earth a thousand years ago. A millennial NEET shut-in at heart, he enjoys video games and holo tube while spending time with his female companion, who does all his deific duties for him. Join the crazy adventures of a lazy God and his unwilling follower's rise to power. The first few Arc's of the story is an Academy arc. I think you will know if you like the story by chapter 6 as the first chapter may be confusing (or sucks, idk I like it so whatever)._________ The story is a slow burn. If you are expecting quick progression, I suggest looking at some of the other great stories on RR. I personally enjoy and Patreon several, but that's not what I'm writing. That might hurt my chances of trending anytime soon (or ever lol), but that is fine with me. I'm sure some of you will appreciate the story as much as I do in writing it. FAQ: The story has elements of xianxia and wuxia along with some GameLit (at some point). The story takes place in an age where tech has advanced to a complete integration with magic. Imagine everything running on mana or qi instead of electricity, and you will get the idea. There will be crafting but not until later in the story. It's actually a core plot elemenet for Layla. I'm writing this story for my own enjoyment and as a way of relieving stress in my life. I'm not a pro author or a naturally gifted wordsmith. I don't have beta readers and every chapter posted is a first draft. I'm still learning and will strive to improve as I continue the story. If you don't speak up I can't work on improving as an author. I welcome any criticism and encouragement that would help me become a better writer. I can't believe you read this far down! ;) Enjoy the story. --Cover Credit-- Cover art (emblem) by: Oxana Che Cover Design by: Miblart
