《A New Beginning in a New World》Encounter
Advertisement
I awoke with a mild headache and a sore back in an unknown location. Looking around, I realized that the place I am right now is different than on the ship.
Maybe the spaceship did return me home after all? I thought.
The place where I woke up was a dimly lit one and I saw that the place was made up of some kind of stone. Giving a kick to the ground, I felt it was pretty solid as well. From the looks of the place, it looked like a cave of some sort. A fairly big one at that and I could see a hole with a faint light coming out. Thinking the hole was probably an exit, I excitedly walked towards it.
The mouth of the cave was getting brighter as I moved forward. I took the final step towards the mouth of the cave and it led me straight into the open. In front of me was something different than what you can see on Earth, something alien which made sure that I wasn't on Earth anymore. There were three giant fucking moons in the sky and it was at this moment all the hopes of being on Earth shattered inside of me.
Although I felt horrible about the fact that I was in an alien world, everything around me was really beautiful. I stood in a huge field of some kind of grass which if looked at from different angles would look different colors. There were many weird-looking flowers but they all looked kinda perfect in that environment. I was thinking about taking some pictures of the place which was stupid considering I will probably never go back home. So I did the only thing I could do and that was to walk and hopefully find out someone or something. After walking for a while my mood started turning better, which was probably thanks to the wonderful scenery of this alien world.
Soon though I started to get hungry. God knows how long it has been since I last ate. Thinking about the different delicious food I would eat while walking didn't help me much. What wouldn't I do for a burger and fries? Just thinking about them made me ten times hungrier. Few more minutes of walking, I could see some kind of structure ahead on the horizon. Or maybe that was just me losing my mind due to the stress of what had happened.

But, the closer I got to the structures, the more real it looked. After walking for who knows how long, I was very tired. I was ready to drop dead at the spot from the exhaustion. I didn't notice that I was nearing a cliff and that I have to climb down the cliff to reach the structures which were probably half a mile ahead of me.
Due to exhaustion, I didn't see how the structure looked, and before I knew it I reached the end of the road and fell. Thankfully, I fell in a small rocky part of the cliff which was jutted out and kept me from falling further. It was like some kind of platform. My body bears scratches all over it but still, I was relatively fine. Slowly stepping near the jutted part of the cliff, I was surprised to see that there was a similar platform all over the cliff, many of them reaching towards the bottom of the cliff. Quickly I thought about using those platforms as a means to reach towards the bottom. After about an hour of nervously jumping around those platforms thinking about my horrible death if I fell, I was finally able to reach the bottom.
Whew…!!! All those hours of playing platforming games finally paid off.
The thought put a small smile on my face. But, now I had spent all my energy and the feeling of drowsiness was all over me. Hunger and thirst didn't help either. So I moved towards a relatively shaded part near the cliff and sat tiredly.
I feel so hungry I could eat a whole pig was the last thought in my mind before I dozed off.
With a feeling of something poking me, I was waking up from my nap. My eyes were still closed while my body was a bit refreshed after a tiring day. Suddenly the feeling of being poked grew so much that I felt a sharp pain.
Quickly opening my eyes, I saw a woman poking me with what looked like a large pointy stick. She saw my eyes open and reflexively jumped back while holding the stick out as a weapon. I was now trying to stand on my feet. She looked a bit aggressive judging from her stance while her eyes were watching my every move warily.

Yay..!!! Finally, I found someone that can probably help me, even tell me where I was.
The thought was exciting, to say the least.
I held up my hands in a friendly manner to show that I was not carrying any kind of weapons and was not a threat to her. Seeing this the woman while still holding the pointed stick somewhat lowered her aggressive stance.
Taking it as a good sign, I finally thought of talking to her.
"Hello"
She was silently watching me speak. So I thought of continuing my introduction.
"My name is Benedict Cook. What is your name?"
As far as the introduction goes, I guess this was the best I could come up with.
Still silent? What should I do now? That was my thought.
Suddenly, she threw away her stick on the ground and started speaking in what I thought was gibberish.
You are on another planet idiot. How could she speak English you dumb shit?
I was berating myself silently when she stopped speaking and looked at me. Her stare sent shivers down my spine and it felt as if she's trying to see into my soul. At that moment my stomach growled like a freaking monster and I was suddenly feeling hot in my cheeks. Feeling a bit embarrassed about my stomach, I kept my head down to not look at that woman.
However, in the next moment, she took my left hand and weakly squeezed them as if telling me it was alright and nothing to be embarrassed about. Then she opened her mouth and with her free hand gestured toward it while moving her mouth and making a grinding noise. She left her hand which was on mine and pointed towards the direction of the structures I saw from the cliff. She probably realized I was hungry and was trying to help me get something to eat back in her home which was probably a village or something like that.
I nodded to her and she then started walking slowly towards her home.
While all this happened, I never actually looked at her properly, so while she was moving in the front, I analyzed her while also slowly walking behind her.
Her hair was dark brown which reached near her shoulders and was braided elegantly. She was wearing a simple light blue colored tunic and brown trousers and black colored boots. The dress was quite clean and looked new rather than being old and dirty. Increasing my pace to match hers, I quickly came near her. Sneaking a peek from the corner of my eyes, I saw that the woman was quite beautiful and looked around mid-20 in age. She was humming some sort of tune and it was quite relaxing to hear. While I was admiring her, she turned her head in my direction, and to avoid looking like a creep watching her, I quickly pretended to watch the surrounding.
She must think that I am a lecher watching her. She is probably even regretting her decision to bring me to her home.
My thoughts were wandering around while we were walking. However, what I did notice but ignored at that time was that there was a weird smile on her face.

Just a Game
“A great corruption is spreading. The people cry out for a savior. For a hero. For YOU! Come join the fight, as the chosen of World Tree! Receive the blessings of the gods, battle fierce monsters, and become the hero you were meant to be, in Arcanum Online!” It was the cheesiest commercial Ethan had ever heard, but the gameplay was enough to draw him - and thousands of others - to the fantasy world of Lazuros. It’s the sort of place that can really draw you in - a huge open world, a deep character customization system, and a feature that makes time pass slower inside the game, extending your limited playtime! It was a little strange, though. As if it was a bit too realistic for a game of swords and sorcery. The NPC’s seemed almost alive, most quests didn’t reset and monsters respawned slowly. Still, for all it’s quirks, it was a good game! Just a game. And nothing more. …right?

Fate Overcharge (Stalled)
Rin Tohsaka, the young genious magus who, using the power of the holy grail, built an empire spanning the whole world, decides to use the power of the second sorcery to expand her empire to other realms and... Ehm, sorry, wrong story. Err, alright, starting again... Rin Tohsaka is the current head of the Tohsaka family and a likely master in the upcoming fifth grail war. She doesn't have a wish she wants granted, but she will fight to win. For if there is a battle to be fought, could a Tohsaka settle for any less than a complete victory? This is a fan fiction for the Fate/StayNight and an alternative rendition of the fifth grail war that introduces new characters, and shows never before seen sides of the old ones. Since this is a fan fiction, knowledge of the original works is needed to understand it. Watching stay/night or zero should be sufficient, but reading both works along with Hollow Ataraxia is recommended for not missing any details. (I won't assume the readers have read Hollow A.) - Warning: Tagged Mature(+15) mainly for violence and strong language. Nothing graphic, and still a lot milder than the original Visual Novel - Note1: I am trying to improve so constructive critisizm and random comments are welcome. Note2: Be warned! Update rate will likely be slow. How slow, I can't say. Note3: I don't consider any side works in the franchise as cannon. So if, for some reason, Nero is summoned, do not riot when he turns out to be a burly, hairy caster. (That won't happen!)
