《Orion》1

WARNING: This story is totally a work of fiction!. It includes explicit narration of gore scenes and violence ahead.
~~~
Dressed in a long white flowing dress, which swept her bare cracked feet and complimented her pale skin, the young girl stood in an isolated area completely covered in fog, with a crown made of white petals sitting gracefully on her head.
Her gaze rested on a figure sat on a white horse far across from her. One as white as the clouds which played their role moving up in the sky.
The young man's sword stayed pressed against his side, while his hands gripped the reins of the horse.
He scanned the face of the girl with weak eyes, not attempting to break contact once.
One could tell he was using his last strength to sit on the horse, but somehow, he managed to stay strong.
The wild breeze which blew his luscious dark hair back and forth, made him shut his eyes while low breaths escaped his blood-stained lips.
"Orion!!!!"
The girl's voice came out clear and audible, even from where she stood.
"Come towards the light" She beckoned to him.
His lips parted slowly, making way for him to speak, but no words came.
He turned his head back to look at what was going on behind him.
The amount of bodies falling to the ground, made his fingers grip onto the reins tighter.
Swords were clinging high up in the air, while blood puffed out in different directions.
It was one massive war going on, as Kings, soldiers and sorcerers fought with their last strength, making sure to take down with them, anyone possible and strengthen their legacy. The power.
It was a battle to the death.
The girl stretched her lean arms forward, waiting for him to take it and go along with her. But instead, Orion turned his horse the other way, moving towards the battle grounds, raising his blade high up in the sky while letting out a war cry.

A sharp gasp left the lips of the young girl who watched him with wide eyes, the look of shock crossing her face while her eyes connected with just one person's amongst the hundreds that stood around her. Orion's.
She watched intently as he fought with strength, thrusting his sword in and out of soldiers, staying undefeated.
Storm clouds rumbled, as the eyes of the girl shone brightly, a white light forming around the circles of her eyes, showcasing her powers.
She stared at Orion with pursed lips and within a second, the whole scene was gone.
Bellona Maynard jolted from her sleep at once, low gasps escaping her lips, with her eyes scanning around the tiny cruck house she was present in.
Her fingers reached for the back of her neck, scratching continuously, making a red bruise appear on her skin.
Slowly, she got up from the creaky bed which she laid in, grabbing her brown boots from where they rested, then wore them immediately, while thinking back about the dream she had.
What were all of these dreams, and what could they mean? She thought to herself.
For days, the girl had been having similar dreams like this, each of them different in their own way.
The one thing that stayed the same, was the figure she always saw in each one of the dreams.
There was something about him that got her thinking every time she woke up.
Who was the fellow?
The question sure perturbed the girl.
Whenever she encountered him in her sleep, she would get a hold of his name, but the instant she awoke from her dreams, it would leave her memory, and all of that would be gone.
Why couldn't she remember who he was?
Grabbing a cup of water from the jar which stayed next to the door, she downed the lot of it in one gulp.

Renewal and Rebirth
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Interstellar travel. Life extension medicines. Advanced AI's All of these meant nothing to Jayden, she had been born too soon, her body unable to process the new technology. She was approaching the end of her life and had a choice to make. Deep Dive VR had progressed and real digitization and uploading was now an option for those unable to use life-extension treatments. For all the science the Human race had developed, Jayden was forced to take a different path. She would be digitized and explore a new world. One where cultivation and dinosaurs blended together. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License. For those unfamiliar with my writing style, Second Chances was my first attempt at writing. I'm not sure how much I learned in the process, except that readers get angry when you mess with characters they like! Warnings - I tend to info dump. I know I do this, I like slice of life novels that take time to unfold. So don't expect action, murder, and battles in every chapter, it isn't going to happen I prefer the first-person narrative. I will do an occasional POV shift, but it will never be done mid-chapter. I hope you enjoy the story, comments, ratings, and favorites are greatly appreciated!

The Gambit
The kingdoms have rarely experienced peace, with kings and rulers warring against each other on any percieved slight. With explorers riding the waves to find new lands and merchants eager to set up trade routes while profiting as much as possible. Would the status quo still hold up? The veil is already weakining as more magic and horrors seep through the gap. How would the world deal with the sudden increase in the limited resource of magic? With the times changing, barren lands become trade hubs and the power shifts. The system holding it all together, is in a fragile balance, would a single death break the balance and cause the most devastating war the people have experienced. The direction of the story : The story will not contain any main protagonist, rather multiple protagonists and antagonists with the protagonists having bad some character traits and the antagonists some good ones. I plan to make a story of flawed humans, so if you are looking for OP MCs you would not enjoy it. But I still hope you give it a try. This is my first time writing and I am doing it to get better, so any suggestion or criticism is welcome. I am a university student, so do not expect a robust upload schedule, I'll try to put out 2 chapters a week, but there might be some delays. I apologize for it in advance. P.s. English is not my native language, so there might be some errors, though I tried to mitigate them as much as possible.
