《Short & Sweet》I Heard a Story
Advertisement
Once upon a time, I heard a story, which hasn't been written on any pages
But it is going on for ages and ages
This story is filled with many twists
So hold on, as it might make you nauseous and unfit
It starts with an innocent human
Perhaps a little child, the one which has no gender
The one with a huge smile
Like every other tale, it begins with a happy start
A house with no windows,
But with members who love to dance
It was the beginning of the beautiful summer
The child played all day, under the hot shiny glaze
While the elders made lemonade and watched television in a daze
This house was just like any other, with walls painted green
These walls knew everything, all the secrets that were never seen
They knew when kids stole cookies from the jar
They knew when grandma was eating a candy bar
Amidst the perfect summer, the relatives also joined
Who was welcomed by all
As the more the merrier was often enjoyed
After a heavy lunch, when every member snored
The child was up, playing games with someone who was bored
This game was new, unusual as well
See, the rules were very easy
Just follow what the leader says
If the leader says jump, you jump
If the leader says touch, you touch
If the leader tells you to remove your clothes and bite
You just happily abide
As the day passed the child was more invested in this game
Not knowing it was fate to be blamed
The leader kissed the child ferociously
The leader did whatever he wished with his little prey
That afternoon the walls turned all blue,
Watching what was later termed as child abuse
The walls watched in vain as they couldn't shout the leader's name
While all were asleep the child was playing the devil's game
The game went on for many days because the leader had no shame
But like every other story, this one also came to an end,
The summer passed & relatives were long gone
But only the four walls knew the traumas the child will carry on.

The Way Ahead
What do you do when you don't fit in? Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He didn't really need it, anyway. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe... not that there were many left to find. Modern-day research was just too well-established, too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make any significant headway. But that doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate much of society with little room for novel experimentation from its residents. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. Things are never that easy, though. The Way Ahead is a very slice-of-life story following the story of someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips by the System, and lots of exploration involving the world, self-discovery, and above all, science. After all, further research is always required. Updates every other day at 9 AM PST. Congratulations! For writing a story during the month of November, you have unlocked the Royal Road Writathon Participant path!
