PROLOGUE
“RING RING RING!!!”
Heard annoying rings and felt vibrations on my desk. I reached out my hand and stopped the alarm clock. I sat and stretched out both hands pushing the air. Wiping my eyes while staring out my window, it’s already sunny outside. Smiled and stood up to take a bath. Stripping my clothes as I walk, I opened the door of my Comfort Room and took a shower.
…
“That was refreshing.” I mumbled while drying my hair. I put on clothes and walked downstairs to eat my breakfast
Mmm, Smells some food! I bet it’s my mom’s cooking because it smells delicious. Excitedly ran and sat down on the chairs of our dinning. I picked up the Spoon and Fork as I stare at Newspaper in front of me. From a distance, my eyes captured few words from the news article. It says “Alliance Online is now ready to play!! Check it out now in your browser and enjoy the Adventure the game offers”. My eyes widen and lips can’t stop smiling.
“Food is ready! Time to eat”
Those words made my head to twist and wait for mom to walk by. Carrying the food that she prepared I stood up and approached her.
“Let me carry it for you Mom.”
Mom smiled at me and laid her left hand on my shoulder. I gently laid down the tray and sat down with mom. We prayed before digging out the food. It’s already in our daily routine. Mom asked a question while I’m eating.
“Seven. Are you sure you want to enroll for college? It will not be that easy you know” She raised her eye brow while asking and took a few drink of water.
“Yes Mom.” I replied gently and hold her hands tight.

She smiled at me and eyed the food in front of me signaling me to eat. I nodded and started to eat.
…
After eating I sat down on my chair and turned my PC on. After waiting I searched the game Alliance Online and a browser game appeared in a blink of 0.8 seconds. The Browser game is well designed. I reached out my mouse and clicked the play button.
“Welcome Player 4799” She paused. 17 minutes had past and I’m still waiting for her to continue while enjoying the thrilling music. Suddenly I saw a small sentence on top-right corner of my monitor and it says Press any key to continue. What the F***. Stupidity strikes again. I reached out my mouse and tapped on the left button. The girl continued to talk…
After Two years
Those are the memorable memories I had with my mother when I left Lactar. My name is Seven Sigmund. What an uncommon name, isn’t it? Even I don’t know what lies upon my name. Mom is a great chef and a caring mother. She filled out everything when my Father left us behind and started to make a new family with her B*tch. But I’m still thankful because he still supports me in my studies and nothing more.
Here I go again, Can’t stop thinking sad thoughts when I’m walking alone the streets of “Quind” the city where I live in right now. Its already two years, yet still don’t have friends. I’m bad at making one. All I have is my mother. I’m already satisfied for what God has given me.
I stretched my hands and reached my headset. Put my headset on and opened my cellphone and tap on Random Music.

Three Hundred Years After The End Of The World
Three hundred years after the end of the world as humanity knew it, the gears of an old plan slowly begin to move again, as a group of self-imposed reincarnators, along with their equally unlikely companions, gather once again to set things right... but does the world they plan to restore need, or even want, their help? Follow the misadventures of an eclectic bunch of genius misfits as they attempt to assemble and fix the world they accidentally devastated in the past. ~~~ Author's note: This is actually the first volume of a novel I wrote nearly a decade ago for the VNDB discussion boards, taking inspiration from the random off-topic ramblings that characterized the golden age of the community. After sevear years and countless rewrites, it is pretty much unrecognizable, but while it is not fit for professional publishing (due to the fact that several fragments and older versions are still out there on various forums and blogs), I decided it is a waste to just let it sit idly on my hard drive forever. As such, I decided to share it somewhere where people could maybe appreciate it, so here it is.

Ashen Skies
Father. Allfather. He who was crowned twice. It has been ages since you have ascended. Since you were crowned with godhood for a second time. Since you have left an empire for us to dwell in, to defend. I yearn for an answer; why have you forsaken us! With you gone, your people have grown weak, complacent, and proud. Proud of who they are, proud of their blood. That pride blinds their eyes and clouds their minds. They are fools, for they have forgotten the ways of the past. They have forgotten the fears of old. The one you had to bind until the end of the time. They have forgotten the dark beast with red jewels for eyes. The Wargr gnaws the walls of his cage even now as I write. Itching for the taste of blood. I ask for forgiveness, for until a while ago I too was one of them. I thought I saved your children from the foretold doom. I now realize the hordes of foes we buried were just like us. No fearsome beasts, no harbingers of doom. Mortals of different flesh, different kind. But I am awakened from that dream now. I see it. Every time I close my eyes, I see it. The cold descends as the Dark walks the land, And the crimson stars shine beneath, as the ashen storm claims the realm. I hear the beast roar as the chains of Rukh crack, Only then I know. Only then I realize. That it’s the end. Descend to earth one more time. Save the puny souls that are us. If not, if you let my dreams come true; then will all die under an ashen sky. Leol, a son of Vaella
