《Lycaon's Echoes》Epilogue

EPILOGUE
Alvarez leaned back in a chair, propped against the motel wall. The sun spread orange in the dry sky, accentuated by twisting pink clouds. Summer was in its terminus, and the still hot air had a breeze to it. The investigation was over, the FBI had issued its preliminary report, and Alvarez was waiting for reassignment. TARP had returned to its original duties, things were slowly getting back to the way they were, or rather, as close to the way they were as would ever happen. These kinds of things changed people, and communities. A reporter had won a Pulitzer Prize for his coverage of the killing. Every commissioner was running for reelection on an anti-law enforcement platform, casting themselves as the leaders who had gotten the county through the worst night in its history. Alvarez was not bothered by any of this. Not anymore. The world would spin just the same.
His life was once again taking on some semblance of normality. No more running around Mexico fighting cartels. The knowledge that he had started a war, that the power vacuum he had caused would further tear the country apart, rested icily in his chest, but he had to accept it. It was time to finally settle down, to regain something of the stability and life he had once held and take back what was taken from him once.
Alvarez drained the last of his tea and placed the glass next to him on the concrete. He was cutting back on the booze and had switched to patches over the cigarettes. It would be a terribly hard transition, and even as he considered the effort he wavered in his resolve. Still, he had done harder things in his life, and now he had someone for which to do them. He was on his way toward becoming a respectable citizen once more, he thought as he adjusted the ring on his finger. He would have to get used to wearing it again.

His phone vibrated, and he pulled it out to look at the number: Ortez. “Alvarez.”
“Ray,” answered his commander, “some hikers went missing in Montana. We found wolf prints around their campsite.”
Alvarez’ response was instantaneous. “Let’s go.”

8 140Re:Hammer
Your average Reborn Game System story, similar to The Gamer and Solo Leveling. Written for fun rather than novilization like the others, so it is smaller and less intense. It is set in an AU Warhammer (based on a slightly modified version of Warhammer Fantasy's End Times. (Modified because the real setting was a catastrophe. There will be no exploding moons or beating the God Of Indulgence because they overindulged, and no Slaans fucking off to space. People shall use their brains and not just "lol cuz I can" bs like Todbringer thinking the end of the fucking world was the best time to go persue you interracial Yaoi rivalry with a Beastlord). So you might notice names and events but don't expect it all to go the same way. And the Main Character is not the only Player in this game~ Sequel found here. https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/26444/rehammer-the-hammering

8 125A Generic Dungeon Core Story
When one falls… what happens? Do they just disappear into an endless abyss? Do they got to a final resting place to lay forever? Do they get to look down proudly upon the world from the clouds or look up in regret as they are burned and tortured? One man… person found out the hard way as he fell into a dark abyss after having surely died only to found himself awake again with most of his memories and knowledge blocked of as he was reincarnated into a 10ft cube as a small glowing sky blue orb…. This is my first actual foray to the world of webnovels as I’ve never wrote any stories before… *cough cough * edgy horny filled teenage fanfics do not count whatsoever *cough cough*. I am very new to the world of novels and I am not a native English speaker so expect a lot of grammar mistakes. The story will update on weekends on Saturday or whenever I feel like uploading as I do not have much free time and this is only a novel I write to improve my writing skills. What can you expect from the story? - Dungeons? Of course, this is the main theme of the story. - Multiple leads? Yes, there will be multiple perspectives from many different characters with at least 4 main characters. - Gamelit? The world is ruled by a system… that does absolutely nothing other than a way to view your stats and progression. - Murder hole? No, the lead character has a challenging yet fair view on how dungeons should operate, don’t get me wrong as he will still kill people if they are evil, careless or overestimate their abilities but don’t expect too much death as I feel that most adventurers would be smart enough to know their abilities especially when they have to do it themselves instead on relying on skills or the system. - Cultivation? No, the ability to gain power from sitting still and breathing never made any sense to me and it will be completely broken if the MC gets their hands on it so… no. - Non-human MC? Yes, they are a dungeon after all and yes, dungeons do get avatars but it is a specialized procedure that many choose not to do. Also, if the dungeon gets an avatar, no he will not be some wish giving demigod or whatever. - Magic? Yes, but it is very limited and down to the ground... from my notes... which means nothing - Art? Yes, I’m a hobbyist-artists so expect some art sketches here and there… I am poor so I do not have line art pens or tablets or adobe photoshop… also no scanners so… pictures of pencil-sketches it is, no coloring though since I am terrible at coloring. - Comedy? Yes, if you can call my bad attempts at humor comedy. - Likeable characters? Hopefully… especially since I accidentally made like... 60 characters … how I made 6 originals into 60?… I have no idea whatsoever… - Adventurers/invaders/delvers/etc…? Yes! My favorite part about dungeon core novels are when delvers delve into the dungeon and reading how they react, I will definitely flesh out the delvers and show how they operate more than usual hopefully. Hopefully you like the story, I will not have a patreon or paypal or whatever mostly because I’m under 18, thanks for at least reading this far and I hope that my writing is at least passable and you enjoy the story… if not then at least I got some writing practice in English.
