《Free Your Mind》Chapter Nine: An Old Notebook Page
Advertisement
Riding on the last of my sanity, as each crashing storm just creates another leak. I fear that I'm on a collision course, one that strays so far away, much further from life than ever before. Soon the biggest storm finally sets in around me, and the clouds only look down upon me with all their seething judgment. I brace myself for the impact of all their hurtful remarks, little did I know that this time they'd be able to break my mind.
I scream and shout, I let all my emotions free. For once I finally do, they'll forever leave me be. That's why I hide away here now, in this decrepit house. Writing all the remaining pain away on an old notebook page. I cry and plead, I let my sadness flee from me. Because once I finally finish my sentence, their grip will weaken around me. That's why all I can do now, is hide away in this broken home. Writing all my inner demons away, on this old notebook page.
Trying to remain afloat in the rough seas of this storm, when suddenly the largest hit comes without any warning. It lifts me above and knocks me off the single clinging hope of my clasp on reality. Panic sets in as I frantically look for any sign of humanity. Begging, for anyone, someone please just help me. For if I stay in my mind for even a second longer, I fear I'll finally fall into the valley.
I don't mean to cry or seem that I'm weak. But all I can really do, is try not to let go of me. I pry my way through the pits of despair, hoping I'll finally see the light. My desperation comes from the desire to find a sliver of my sanity, wondering and wishing, if it could be the key.

I scream and shout, I let all my emotions free. When I manage to do this, they can finally leave me be. That's why I'm hidden here now, in this decrepit house. Writing all the pain away on an old notebook page. I cry and plead, pushing my sorrow away from me. Because once I finally complete my writing, they'll have no control of me. That's why I do what I do now, hiding away in a shattered home. Writing all my scars down, on this old notebook page.

Patchwork System
Notification (cannot be ignored): For being the first being to kill another of its own species after Sublimation, Lyam Aldren is awarded the Title of Cain’s Successor. Let all fear the Kinslayer!!! Lyam Aldren, killer for hire, was just going about his business when he suddenly received a notification from something called the System. Apparently, the entirety of Earth, its denizens and its matter were transported into the world of the System, planted in 'patches' all throughout the infinite world. The world of the Patchwork System is one of challenges, where life is cheap, power is king, and Classes and levels are a thing. In a brutal world, there is perhaps room for a killer with bloodstained hands to find his own way, free of his past. However, his Title and his inherent nature plague him, his fragmented personality laid bare to those with the eyes to see, and if he doesn't become powerful enough to defeat or escape those who would use or destroy him, he will quickly be devoured by the merciless world created by the System. Compared to my previous work, this is a more 'classic' litrpg setup, with clear (if somewhat complex) progression through levels and skill gains, with a 'system apocalypse' setup. Unlike most system apocalypse story protagonists, Lyam is neither a leader nor is he particularly interested in saving his fellow Earthlings. This is a story of a man who is both endangered and set free by the destruction of his old world, as he finds both power, new discoveries, and adventure in a place where his past matters not at all and power is the only language most speak. Later in the story, there will be harem elements, but the first volume is dedicated to Lyam's first months in the System. For those who are more interested in the Heirs of the Hooded King, I am putting it on hiatus as I rework the setting and future story developments a bit.
