'After I woke up, I skinned the bodies and moved on. I was moving through the forest on the next adventure. I am beginning to think that the real dinos that are an actual threat r not around much because, after 16 days of running straight, I have not seen another huge dino. I am closing in on the city I will probably arrive within the month. I am excited to see humans again. It would have been a lonely couple of million years without them. I mean, From what I can decern the meaning of life is other human and those connected with them.'
'hey system, can you pull up stats.'

'i am just about to reach the border in D.R. Congo. I wonder if there will be any human life there probably not in this day and age people have to live with others to survive.'
As I run, the sun is blocked out above my head. I look up, thinking it's a cloud, and I see something I never thought I would see. What looks to be a dragon, but all the things I have ever read or seen about dragons in my past life made them out to be not that big; sure, some are big, but this one is gigantic.

'Holy Shit, I guess the light did say everything, and there aren't many creatures that date back this long, so I guess dragons would be here as well, right.' (A/N: I just got the inspiration to add these guys. It will be more fun)
'Guess I will have to start power leveling because I will die very fast if I don't. every small dragon I run into, I will have to kill to start putting on some more stats.'
{ I will take it easy on you and not give You a quest to kill one of those things, so here you go}
{Quest triggered:
The ancient tree
Find out what is poising the ancient tree in the middle of the forest and help it.
Requirement: Save the ancient tree
Time Limit: 1 month
Reward: Natures Blessing, 200 exp
Penalty: Curse of the forest}
' ok, this is easy. I just have to go into the forest and find out what is happening there. I can do this.'
'System please mark on my map where the tree is'
{Will do}
So Harlock set off into the forest once again.
I moved fast through the forest in the direction marked on the map. It was a couple of miles off. It took me a minute to get there, and as the tree started to come into view, it was an aw encouraging sight to behold because of the majesty of the tree.
It was probably 100 feet in height, not a great height but a massive height nun the less.
It was an old redwood tree that obviously has weathered many storms.
As I grew closer, I could see some spot where it was black.
' that is probably from it being poisoned.'
I began to search the area looking for any clues as to what did it. So far, I had come up with zilch.
Its got to be some animal that has to poison things because there would be no point the poisoning a tree. Maybe something in the soil coming from a river upstream or something could be getting into the water source and absorbing it into its system.

'System show me any streams or creeks nearby.'
{there is one very close to 50 feet north, and there should be a small creek running by there}
I moved in the direction the system had told me, and sure enough, there was a creek.
' Now, all I have to do is move upstream to find out what is doing this.'
As I moved upstream, I noticed that other trees are turning black as well.
'Oh man, this is bigger than I thought. Soon it would affect the whole area, possibly killing all living things. I have to find what's doing this.'
As I move up the creek, it breaks into a bigger river.
I follow it, walking along the bank with trees to my right and the water to my left.
'This is probably the main source of water in this area. Everything that drinks this water is probably being poisoned as well.'
As I keep moving, a waterfall comes into view.
I keep moving forward, getting closer to the fall. I can hear the tumbling water crashing down in the small lake just under it.
As the lake comes into view, I notice why this is all happening. A large dragon is lying in the lake, not moving at all. I not wanting to get too close for fear of disturbing the dragon.
I am walking along the lake's outer edges, making sure to be quiet and not make too much noise. As I walk, I can get a better view of its neck and is practically torn out. All the blood has clotted up, so it is not leaking out into the river.
'Hey system, what is that.'
{Poison Dragon (deceased)
Weight: 150 Pounds
Threat: B-
Description: If this dragon can even prick you with its razor-sharp fangs, you will die in minutes. Be careful around them; they are quick}
'So it is dead now. I need to get out there and look around it. Luckily the lake or rather, a pond is shallow, and I can move without sinking.'
I moved out closer to the dead dragon picking up its head in my hand and opening its eyes, and seeing the white of them.
As I feel its neck, there is this clear substance leaking through its neck and is all over the place.
'Shit, this must be the poison it must still be in its body and is leaking out, and why whatever killed it didn't eat it. I got to figure a way to get it out to of the lake.'
'System, can I take it into inventory?'
{Since it is for the Quest no help}
'Great, thanks a lot.'
'hmmm, I can use the water to my advantage and try and pull it out.'
{So you know with your current strength you could just pull it out without having to think of a way to do it}
'oh'
I grabbed it by the foot and pulled, yanking it from the lake. Pulling it up on to the rocks next to the shore.
{Quest completed:

The Thaumatist Incident
The towers fell over a century ago, and the Good King united the land. Under his voice the Thaumatists took the knee or took the sword. The University still stands, but for how long? This story is broken up into two parts. Chronologically, the two parts overlap. Part One Emile, a girl with a Talent not seen since the good king's war as she tries to find help to save her beloved father from a cruel accident. Julie, raised in a small farming village on her quest to become someone people will sing about. Part Two Wendel, a recent graduate of the University, an intense school that functions first as a police force to control the use of magic and secondly as an educational institution. Demetrius, a servant at the school who loses his home and his safety. Edits are ongoing. Reviews and comments will only help the editing the process, and I am grateful for any and all input. So, if you have been reading already, Jericho has been removed. It's been brought to my attention that his chapters detract from the flow of the narrative. They still exist, and are still going to be made available at some point in some way shape or form, but for the time being what happens with him and the king in Puissant city will be off camera so to speak.

My Poetry
So I think some of you know that I already write poetry. Most of my poetry is free verse. I thought why not go ahead and just make a poetry book in here. Some of this is poetry I've already written, others are brand new. God I'm really nervous about this, I don't usually share my poetry.

Blood and Honor (Rewrite)
Fate is such a simple and complicated word. It is also the name of the most popular VRMMORPG. Do what you want, be what you want. Your fate is what you make of it. Their is also wealth and power from Fate Online for those willing to take it and fight for it. For the people fighting from the bottom up, they are willing to do almost anything. Even kill or betray. I learned that the hard way, but when a man losses everything, he can do pretty much anything. Note* I do not own the Pic, I did not create it. All credit of the PIC/Art goes to the original creatorNote* Rewrites are coming starting 08-March-2021Note* Chapters will be released on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.Note* This story will contain profanity, violence, cursing, sexual content, offensive language, jokes about fantasy ethnic groups (People that aren't real in other words), etc... So if you are easily offended, perhaps you should not read this story.
