"I am in my sixth year of school now, i miss Katarina and Ivan, but i will see them again soon i hope" thought Andrej while walking to a classroom "But, from fifth year onwards i'm supposed to have only training, so why a geography class at the start of a year?" he continued thinking, before entering his classroom and taking a seat in the back.
"Good morning" said Anya, who sat in front of Andrej.
"Ah, good morning to you too" replied Andrej.
"Good morning partner" said Mateja
"Good morning" replied Andrej.
"Hey, do you two wanna go to the town after the class is over, we don't have training today" said Anya.
"Why not" replied Andrej.
"Sure" said Mateja, and at that moment the professor entered the classroom.
"Good morning" he said.
"Good morning"
"My name is Georgij Gereshkov, i am normally a history professor, but today i will give a lesson about the geography of our world to you" Georgij said.
"This will be a interesting lesson, better not sleep through this one"
"Now, this world is split in two continents, Yavia and Navia, our kingdom is located on Yavia, and there are four countries on Yavia, firstly the Beodor kingdom, where we are right now, the current king is Triglav Malshenko, to the south, is the state of Takamagahara, a closed country where feudalism is still present, their leader is Amaterasu, then to the east is the kingdom of Graymore, it is also called the kingdom of nature and wonders, their leader is the seemingly immortal king Arthur Pendragon, also did you know that there are actual dragons living in Graymore?"
"No way, dragons? I must go to Graymore and see one!" thought Andrej excitingly.
"Now, there is only one country remaining, and that is the senate of Romulus, it is known as the impenetrable fortress and the paradise of war, it is said that it's military is so strong, that they never lost a single war, their leader is senator Mars" Georgij explained.
"Professor, what about Navia?" asked one of the students.

"Ah, you see, there is next to no information about Navia, what we know is that there are at least two different countries there, first is Ragnarok, where supposed demons live, and Tieras Vivas, a forest of pure magical energy, and that is all we know, every adventurer that we sent there never returned" Georgij concluded his lesson.
"And now, you are dismissed" he said, and all of the students ran out of the classroom in frenzy.
"Hey you two, let's go to the city now" said Anya.
"Let's go" said Andrej.
They decided to walk, since the city wasn't that far away from the school, overall, it took them about 25 minutes to arrive, then they arrived, after crossing the city gates, they were in the main street, which was lined with stores, workshops, hotels and many other buildings, they walked and admired the scene, before arriving at a small park with a fountain, where they sat on one of the benches.
"So, after we graduate, wanna go travel, the three of us together with Katarina and Ivan" asked Anya.
"Sure, where do you wanna go?" asked Andrej.
"Let's go to Takamagahara first" said Mateja.
"I have no objections" said Andrej.
"No, let's visit Graymore first" said Anya.
"Why?" asked Mateja.
"It sounds better than Takamagahara, and plus it will be easier to enter the country" replied Anya.
"That just sounds boring" commented Mateja.
"Now, now, the professor said there are dragons there, so i'm with Anya on this one" added Andrej, and at the mention of dragons, Mateja got super excited.
"On second thought, Graymore sounds like a better option" said Mateja.
"Then it's decided" Anya said, and the other two nodded in response.
"Hey, do you wanna go have something sweet?" Andrej asked and pointed to a confection store nearby.
"Yeah" replied Anya and Mateja, and they went to the store, and took a table for three.
"Welcome, what would you like to eat?" asked a waitress.
"Three strawberry ice creams" said Anya.
"Coming right up" replied the waitress, and after about four minutes, she returned with the ice creams, which the three of them quickly ate, paid for and left the store.

"Ah, now i could really go for a beer" said Mateja.
"Okay, i will go with you" said Andrej.
"Then, i will go and visit some shops, meet me here in an hour, and remember to not be late" Anya said..
"Okay" said Andrej, and they split, Andrej and Mateja went to look for a tavern, and Anya went to do her shopping.
Mateja and Andrej eventually found a stand which was selling draft beer, they went there and got a mug each, they they drank the beer while making small talk about anything and everything for about twenty minutes.
While they were drinking Anya was looking at different shops selling different stuff, from a weapons shop selling different kinds of weapons, armors and other gear for adventurers, to a elegant dress store, which was selling high quality dresses of different colors, from red to black, eventually she found a small tea shop, she entered and took a seat inside.
"Hello, what tea would you like?" a small, elderly lady asked her.
"Chamomile tea please"
"Coming right up" the lady said, and after ten minutes returned with the tea, which Anya silently drank while looking out of a window and thinking.
After they finished with their beer, Mateja and Andrej walked around the city, before stumbling upon a interesting small house, on it was a sign which read "Fortune telling and seances" both of them entered the house, which was completely dark and empty, except for a crystal ball sitting in the middle of the room.
"Welcome" a man in a crimson robe suddenly appeared before them "Would you like a fortune reading seance?"
"Uh, sure why not" said Andrej.
"Good, now sit in front of me" the man said, and Andrej sat in front of him, the man then started to speak some random nonsense, and the ball started shining strongly, before the light died out.
"I saw that in the near future, there will be a turning point in your life" the man said. "Now, would you like to take part in our seance?" the man said, and many other people wearing the same robes appeared.
"No thank you" said Mateja.
"Blasphemy!" shouted the man "After i read your fortune, you reject the seance??"
"Now if you will excuse us" said Andrej, and he opened the door of the house and both he and Mateja exited, but not before the man shouted another "Blasphemy!" at them.
"Well that was, interesting to say the least" said Andrej.
"I agree with you there partner, let's go and meet Anya, wouldn't want to make her angry" said Mateja.
"Yeah, i don't want that too" added Andrej, and they went back to the park, where they saw Anya waiting for them.
"You are late!" she said angrily.
"Actually, we arrived just on time" said Andrej.
"Shut up" said Anya, and the three of them went back to the school.
"So, what did you do in the city?" asked Anya.
"Well, first we had a beer…" said Mateja.
"Of course you did"
"What's that supposed to mean?" asked Mateja.
"Anyways, we looked around, and then saw a strange house, and decided to enter it" continued Andrej.
"Wait a second! You saw a strange house, and instead of just ignoring it like normal people, you idiots went inside???" said Anya.
"Yes"
"I will lose my mind someday because of you"
"You will probably die of anger before that" added Mateja.
"I dare you to repeat that"
"Anyways, inside some guy did a fortune telling seance, and it was interesting to say the least" said Andrej "And what did you do?"
"Nothing much, walked around, had a tea"
"Boring" said Mateja.
"At least i didn't go into random suspicious houses and risked getting killed"
"Now, all's well that ends well" said Andrej and the three of them returned back to school.

DarkBoi69's mediocre, rushed and badly-written aventure
Follow DarkBoi69's edgy adventure as I move him through a shitty plot where he meets terribly-written characters like angry evil stupid villains and naive cute useless busty women. This story is not really an actual serious story but simply a writing exercise for me to focus on overall writing speed, forcefully insert some writing in my everyday life to increase productivity and most importantly help with turning ideas, thoughts or feelings into writing directly without feeling blocked, hopefully trying to achieve something as close as possible to writing unconsciously what i’m thinking about. I'll probably try to do something like writing as much in 30 mins as I can, nearly every-day. So far I've only done this once and it already seems like a pretty good thing to do. I don’t have anything planned and that’s probably going to be a constant for every one of these exercises, so it’ll end up being not very good (although maybe better than it has any right to be? ) and nonsensical.

Join Dan in his adventures through this fantasy world! This is an offshoot to my other series, Bunnymancer. This story will focus on what if Dan went down a different path and became a Necromancer instead of a Bunnymancer. The story will be a little darker and the first six chapters will be the same. Past that though we will get into a new plotline, though if you've already read through bunnymancer I would suggest starting at chapter 7 when reading through this. This is a book within the Completionist Chronicles Universe. I was given permission to make this as long as I did not publish it as an official Mountain Dale Press work or sell it for money.
