《In the Afternoon》Untitled 3

The jewels shone in the bright sun,
reflecting the light and shooting tiny beams of light towards me.
The black jewel at its center glittered as it was moved around,
catching light at different angles.
The band was a golden color,
much like the decorations within the Estate had once been,
before the Duchess had plunged the house into mourning,
and never gone back.
I always thought it was because her love for Cael was so strong,
but as I look at the new ring on her finger,
I find this impossible to be true.
Anger overwhelms me as my eyes rest on the black jewel,
but then a new emotion emerges.
Hope?
How could there be hope,
when she was so obviously betraying the memory of her previous lover?
But then I look down at my own hand,
where a small diamond sits atop a simple golden band.
I begin to imagine another ring replacing it,
and I am no longer filled with remorse.

8 1460Raccoon's Treasure
People waking up is a part of the usual normal life. An uncountable number of people waking up with fuzzy memories and selective amnesia, only to be greeted with a status screen congratulating them for being a participant of a game? The new normal. Uncertainty follows the realization as the world around them, while looking the same, melts together with memories of what was once called fantasy. New surroundings and blurred borders await as we follow a young man along his path of survival and growth. In this new world power is quantified and upgradeable, traits get objectified and give out boons, while feats, some bigger, some smaller get rewarded. So how hard could it be to procure enough food and water? Genre, tags and content warning are subject to change. They were selected preemptively to cover certain bases for future chapters. I do not have a script only a premise and general outline I will follow along as I write. As this is my first try at writing I'd be overjoyed to get any kind of feedback. Crossposted on QQ
