(tubs and Diane step out of the base where the pod is held, to see a barren land around them)
|hey, wheres all the people?|
(diane looks around)*it looks more like Nevada than an alien spaceship. what gives, I wanted to pop some grey alien eyes with my thumbs.*
(tubs looks towards horizon)| someone's coming...really quickly|
*huh?*
(the form speeds into tubs as such force that there is an indent in the flab, and some of the mustles)
...(a small figure pushes itself out)"softer stop than I expected"(the figure dusts itself off to show that it looks like a little girl wearing eyeshadow and a black studded collar) "ahem,..I AM THE GODDESS OF THIS WORLD AND YOU WILL WORK TO MAKE IT BETTER!"
(tubs still on the ground, Diane leans down to speak to her)*listen kid, where is your mommy and daddy, so we can find out where we are.*
(annoyed, the girl headbutts Diane)"DON'T TALK DOWN TO ME, I AM MARY, GOD OF THIS RAVENGED WORLD, AND YOU WILL HELP ME REVITALIZE IT!"
*OWW, OKAY YOU LITTLE BRAT, COME HERE!*(picks her up by the collar) *i don't know what your deal is, but I don't like it. we're bad guys and we don't take orders from snot-nosed brats!*
"I'm not some kid!"(produces the chain scythe and jabs them into Diane's shoulders)
*AAAAAAAH, [email protected]*

"don't worry, your wounds will heal, oh, wait, already have."

"I made your bodies more resilient, there aren't any trees yet, so no oxi-ox..-."

|wait,...do we get weapons?|
"yes, but my cyborg preist will help with that BYE-BYE!"(walks fast into the base, and secretly go's into a secret compartment filled with goo, before druzy pops out of that body and mind to the one waiting behind some rocks)
@...well,...welcome to [email protected]

*...okay, tubs, I'll bite, HOW do you know?*
|(picks up some dirt and sprinkles it) well, no wind has touched this land in no less than 100 years, the soil's composition matches no known soils of similar topography, the heat is mild despite it being midday in what looks like a semiarid desert, I also can just...tell there are no microbes in the soil- AND HOW THE HELL DO I KNOW ALL THESE WORDS AND THINGS?|

"(a male voice in the distance)(pants) because key knowledge was put into your noggins so you could be more valuable assets to a team whose job is the terraforming of a planet."

"...technological synchronicity"
(she brandishes her pocket knife to poke him)
"MORE CONTROL OVER THE MECH IM GONNA BUILD YOU LATER!"
(tubs sets him down) " just..let me show you how useful they are..."(they walk into the base and the pod makes a futuristic gun, and a Warhammer)
(he hands them to Diane and tubs respectively)"HERE...kill that bolder!"(points to one in the distance 15 yards away)
|...what?|
*your kidding, right?*
"no,...tubs, focus on the rock, Diane, imaging the gun as part of your arm,...NOW!"

|...okay, now lets see what I can do.(focuses on the bolder, and suddenly can see every detail of it, yet can still see all of it) wough ,...now I can see it's cracks, and where to hit it, to make it split anyway I want.|(rushes towards it, to strike, and it breaks in two in one hit)
(Diane shoots without even needing to look through the sight and hits tubs in the ass with an explosive pellet, it just singes the skin and leaves a welt)
|OWWW! MY ASS! MY ASS!|
*oh-hohohohoho, I'm sorry!,..(snorts) haha...just. just rub some dirt on it.*
@i missed [email protected]
"...i almost regret this...almost."
(after the bolder is reduced to rocks)
"Okay, now would you kindly BRING those rocks to the pod, so we may get started for real, the more you bring, the sooner I can begin upgrading you"
*don't tell me what to do.*
"the orb can make a healthy simulacrum of cake!"
*okay, I'll do it.*

Author here, just wanted to say that if the synopsis did not sound as exciting as I had hoped it would be, try reading the first 10 chapters? I promise it won't be terrible! :) Whoops, forgot to mention, prologues don't count as chapters! If you've read this far, I might as well tell you what I was inspired by! However, this does NOT mean my story will be similiar in any way to the novels/stories/books listed below. By 'inspiration,' I refer to mainly how the characterizations plot devices, dialogue, conflict introduction/resolution, and thought processes are used and introduced in those works of literature. But in a way, you can interpret this list as, "if the author read and was inspired by these novels, then it's possible that we share similiar tastes, so I'll give this story a try." :) -Those Who Aspired to Become Gods: A darker fairy tale novel (My all-time fantasy favorite despite it being unfinished) -Forgotten Conqueror (Second all-time fantasy favorite) -Brandon Sanderson's The Reckoning trilogy (Third all-time fantasy favorite) -Kel Kade's 'King's Dark Tidings' -Brent Week's Night Angel saga -Red Rising trilogy -Infinite Realm: Monsters & Legends -Reborn: Apocalypse -Reborn: Evolving From Nothing -48 Hours a Day -The New World -Creep -Arrogant Young Master Template A Variation 4 -Can't Cure Deceit -Super Minion -Unparalleled -Unbound -Wake of the Ravager -Overgeared -Solo Leveling -The Tutorial Is Too Hard [email protected] -God of Money -A Snake's Life -The Snake Report -The Tower of God -UnOrdinary -Release that Witch!
8 190Wolf's Oath Book 1: Oath Sworn
In Aralt ‘Wolf” syr Tremayne’s world, skyships sail above tidal extremes, crystal swords are Tuned, and the soul-touched inspire both awe and fear. The latter doesn’t phase him, he carries a Tuned blade, and as for the ships…Aralt prefers to keep his feet on solid ground. Having finally laid to rest the ghosts of his past, he is unprepared when the grave gives one of them back. To his shame, it isn’t the one he wants. Lian Kynsei’s arrival upends Aralt’s life, but there is nothing he can do about it. Oath-bound to Lian, the last of a priestly clan, he is now defender of the scion of a faith he no longer shares. But the boy Aralt once knew is gone. In his place is a reckless, traumatized teen who can light the sky on fire. The more they get reacquainted, the less Aralt likes him—and the feeling is mutual. As revenge against a common enemy boils in his blood, Aralt struggles to do his oath-sworn duty and secure sanctuary for the heir-apparent to a mystical dynasty. But instead of safety, every step brings them closer to danger: sky pirates, cannibals, and a relentless soulless scourge unleashed by their enemy are all intent on killing Lian—or worse. Death, Aralt realizes, might be the greater mercy. ---------------------------------------------------------- What to Expect: Character-driven Plot Novel Pacing (which I accept isn't typical for serials) Elaborate Worldbuilding (you gotta pay attention) Soul-bonded Swords Sentient Wolves Longish Chapters What Not to Expect: Litrpg (sorry!) Harem (not sorry!) Magic System Short Chapters Dancing Bears (at least so far) Seriously, this is a second-world low fantasy/science-fantasy featuring a strong, but flawed male protagonist, a cheeky teenage boy that’s driving him crazy, a wee bit o’ Scots flavor, and a whole lot of culture clashing. I’m preparing to relaunch this story on Kindle once the second and third books are ready and I’d love some feedback as I move through those revisions. I'm serious about the feedback. All comments are welcome. I'll name a characters after you. And kill them, if you want. :) Oh, did I mention soulless assassins and cannibals? Yeah, Aralt’s day is not getting any better. cover image by brosedesignz
