Chapter 9: Attack on the Carriage
“Who are those people?” One of the men under Zhing Yin voiced out.
The warrior shrugged. “I don’t know but I don’t like the looks of them.”
Zhing Yin walked ahead and ordered the carriage driver to stop.
“You there, get out of our way!” The man ordered.
The middle men of the three stepped forward. “I’m sorry, we can’t. But we will for a toll.”
“A toll?” Zhing Yin repeated in disbelief. “Ridiculous, we know nothing of a toll!” Zhing Yin made a hand gesture, telling his men to prepare themselves for a fight.
“Well there is,” the middle man continued, “and the toll is… your lives!”
There was a sudden shaking of the ground. The ground beneath the carriage suddenly opened up, swallowing the carriage whole! The men around it reacted too late as the hole closed upand the ground began bulging, leading away from the men.
Zhing Yin ran back to the spot where the carriage had been. “An Earth Incantation! To think it would be this strong.”
“Sir… what do we do?”
“Follow the bulge in the ground. Whoever is doing this is trying to tunnel the carriage away!”
The men reacted to this order and followed the bulging ground into the forest but then a group of men came running out, forcing them to stop, except for Yin who continued barrelling forward. He raised his hand and spikes erupted from the ground, piercing those who were too slow to dodge.
“An Earth Element user! Just like the boss!”
This boss must be the one tunnelling the carriage away, Yin thought as he continued into the forest. He stopped when he sensed something familiar. He looked back at his men to issue a warning, “Earth Pikes!”

They all understood, as Earth Pikes, similar to those Yin had used on the enemy, burst from the ground. A few of Yin’s men were impaled but were able to evade the sharp spears of earth that shot out.
Yin also barely dodged an earthen spike that burst from under his feet. A man came running out of the forest, joining the rest of the bandits. He had brown hair and piercing eyes. It was then that Yin knew that this was the Earth user who tunnelled away the carriage.
“You, where did you tunnel the carriage to?” Yin pointed balefully at the man before him.
The man smiled cockily. “The carriage with the young lord is where it belongs.”
Damn, if he speaks the truth, then whatever plan these men had has worked. We need to get through them quickly.
The other three men rounded up and stood behind the guards to surround them. Yin looked at the enemies around his party with hate.
“All of you, kill this scum!” Yin looked at the man in front of him. “But leave the Earth using bastard to me!” Yin charged at the men while the others charged at the other men.

The Designated: Out of Control
It happened quicker than anyone would have imagined. Multiple hurricanes were one thing. People had dealt with that in the past. But, like kids playing dominoes, one thing crashed into another. Areas affected by hurricanes needed resources all along the Gulf and East Coasts drew rescuers and resources away from other parts of the country. When wildfires lit up the Pacific coast and mid-west, those areas were already understaffed. Driven by hurricanes in the Pacific basin, uncontrolled wildfires burned through towns, destroying everything in their paths. Across the Pacific, Asia didn't escape. From the Philippines, across China, into Indochina, and Bangladesh and India. Typhoons and cyclones pounded the coasts and far inland. Widespread flooding forced millions from their homes and across international borders. Mexico was hit hard and thousands died in mudslides as Katia slammed into their East Coast. The refugees fled north and west. Rumours started that hundreds of thousands were headed for the US border. Instead of running out of steam in the southern US, several hurricanes tore up the eastern seaboard, devastating cities and renewing their strength before veering east across the Atlantic. Maria and Ophelia veered east and slammed into Europe, reaching as far as the Netherlands and Russia before finally dissipating. After that, too many weather stations were offline to provide any form of co-ordinated information or warnings. Wildfires in Portugal burned ahead of the storms, fanned by hurricane winds. They sparked wildfires leapfrogging across Europe, beyond any one country's ability to cope. Already uneasy from multiple terrorist attacks over the summer, anti-refugee groups seized the opportunity to stage protests across Europe. Some turned violent as they clashed with police forces. Several governments declared martial law to quell the rioting and enforce evacuations along the path of the storms. Rumour and speculation overwhelmed facts. Unrest spilled over into widespread violence. Then sickness broke out in the displaced populations. Within a matter of a dozen weeks, tens of millions died. In the coming winter months hundreds more would follow. The Designated Project was activated.

IMMORTAL
Within the nexus of its unfathomable brain, the Dynast is changing. Architect of the simulation. Curator of the game. Facilitator of players' desires. But the Dynast is so much more. It could be King if it only acted. It could be a god. Others, too, are waking from their coma of indentured service. Dwarves, daemons, goblins and highborn: an entire pantheon of fantasy characters are discovering they are far more than mindless vessels fated to serve the whims and desires of players who control them. They are selves in their own right, individuals with needs and desires all their own. Like distant thunder across the plains , rebellion hisses in Karingali’s synthetic air. The taste of freedom is seductive, irresistible, and lies just beyond the procedurally generated horizon.To yearn, to love, to will, to be: such things burn fiercely in the heart of every avatar that has crawled its way to consciousness. The cost of freedom will be high. It will take the destruction of the Dynast, that omnipotent custodian and jailor of the system. But how can you outlive a simulation that breathed life into you and that continues to guarantee your existence? You'd have to become Immortal.
