《The King Of Sloth》Chapter 1
Advertisement
I feel myself waking up, but since the feeling of just waking up and then falling asleep again is amazing I drift back off. I once again wake up but this time decide to open my eyes, in order to see my situation. I mean I did die after all, it's kinda obvious. I mean there is no way a doctor could have saved me in that situation, I'm guessing that I was shot and that the bullet went straight through my chest. The only doctors near me would have been the off duty ones that didn't have any tools to work with, I mean who would let sharp tools into the Royal Palace?
I open my eyes and find myself in a forest. A big forest. I mean a VERY big forest. The trees look to be higher than twenty five meters and they were a bit over a meter thick. Well this is very confusing, I know I died so why am I in a giant forest? Well it's not like I don't like forests, actually I find them rather soothing. Well anyway besides the forest, there's an even bigger problem. Something's wrong with my body, my arms are freakishly long and have long, thick, white claws on them. It's the same with my legs too, freakishly long with claws. Now that I have a better look at myself, my skin looks as if it has never seen the sun and my hair seems to have grown to about waist length. The colour seems to have changed too, since it's all grey with black patches.
I think I may have heard of this type of situation before. I believe this is a type of reincarnation. Yep that's the only possible solution I can think of. Now that that's out of the way, what should I do? There's still too much left unanswered.

"SIGH"
I'm feeling tired. But there's one thing I heard about that I want to try. I heard that there are stories of people going to game like worlds and getting "status screens" that show your "stats". In order to test this I focused on the words status screen in my head.
DING
It actually worked!?
I was honestly not expecting that. Well anyway it says.....

I see. It appears that I am incredibly slow right now. I can use magic though, that's pretty cool. But how? It says gravity manipulation, so do I just imagine gravity bending to my will or something???
Eh. Whatever I'll look into it later, for now I need details. Then I need a nap. I tried moving my hand over to the screen, it looked as if I was moving in slow motion. After half a minute of struggling to move my hand I decided to just focus on what I wanted to know about. Surprisingly enough it worked.

Cool. That last one is definitely my favourite though. Well now that that's out of the way.....
Time for a nap.

Mind your Manors, please.
In a land of crimson and darkness, a lone door stood in a valley of fiery petals. Within was a golden mansion, home to the Count and his seven guests. When a lone child wandered into a manor of ruin and ancient evil, what horrors awaited the poor and innocent soul? Nemo didn’t know the answer to that question, but she sure as heck wanted to find out. A new world meant adventure, and adventure meant discovery, and discovery meant fun! Well, that was supposed to be the plan, but the Count was too busy trying to fix the manor to go with her. So she would help him, that was what friends were for, right? This ultimate housemaid would stop at nothing until the job was done. It didn’t matter if the manor lay ruined for many years, it didn’t matter if all the guests could bring about the end of the world, it doubly didn’t matter that Nemo was a low-level scrub, whatever that meant. She would level up, get better at fixing things, and nothing would stop her from having the Count take her on an adventure! Now, where did the last giant floating eyeball go? next arc release date: indefinite hiatus Disclaimer: the current cover is a place-holder stock photo taken from Stockfresh.

A Canopy of Stars
Arden, planet of a billion souls, has been destroyed. A solar body, known only as The Dark Star collided with the world, shattering it. Through the actions of ancient heroes, and the sacrifice of the Gods, life found a way. Floating through the black sea of space, orbiting the destructive beauty of The Dark Star is Shatter, a coalition of continental rocks, surviving as best they can. Through magic and technological advancements, the fractured remnants of the planet have been made halfway habitable. In addition to shattering the prime material plane of Arden, The Dark Star’s destructive force also fractured the planar system, collapsing ancient barriers and forcing the wild elemental and chaotic magics of the planes into conjunction. The Kingfisher, helmed by the enigmatic and powerful Captain Thunder and her miscreant crew, do odd jobs to survive, operating outside of the law. One such job takes them to the shard of Evergreen, a fragment of planet covered in brilliant forests and the capricious and deadly faerie folk who call them home. Unfortunately, while the job seems simple enough from the outside, it quickly embroils the crew of the Kingfisher in a dangerous storm. Can Thunder and her crew keep to the sidelines when war is brewing around them?
