《Regis》Prologue

??????, Year ?????
The sun was setting, painting the land a deep scarlet red. The earth was covered in red liquid seeping from tall hills present as far as you could see. 4 figures stood on a mountain watching over the scene.
Figure 1: What a mess. Did you really have to be so messy little brother? There are far more easier ways to wipe out an army.
The hills were in fact bodies, corpses. There were beasts, winged creatures, humans, evil looking things, puppets, and pointy eared beings. Their bodies still carried a frightening pressure. Nobody could get near without dying. Yet those 4 figures stood there as if they didn't even feel the pressure
Figure 2: HAHAHAHA!!! Bit it's more fun this way. Tearing their bodies apart was fun! Look! one of them even managed to scratch me. HAHAHA!! If I did it your way would I have gotten this wound. NOPE! I got a battle wound. I'm not like you. I like the feeling of battle. HAHAHAHA!!
Figure 3: Disgusting battle freak.
Figure 2: Don't say that to me. I've what you do to your opponents and victims.
Figure 3: Hmmm (snorts)
Figure 4: ........................
Figure 1: All right you two stop fighting. What are we going to do know? This is what you should be focused on.
Figure 4: His majesty is dead
Figure 1, 2, 3: ..............
Figure 2: Big Bro ...... Does this mean that......
Figure 4: No. His majesty might have died but his power lives. His essence survives and his successor will arise. It is our duty to guide him.
Figure 1: So big Bro we wait then?
Figure 4: Yes. We wait. For now. And soon we will rise and vanquish everyone who stood against his majesty. Lets Go.
Figure 1, 2, 3: Yes
Figure 4 then turned his head towards the corpses and looked. The corpses suddenly disappeared as if they evaporated. The only remaining evidence of the war fought here was the numerous craters and fissures that remained. The blood, the corpses had vanished.

Figure 4: Now that that's taken care of. Lets go.
Figure 2: HAHAHAHAAAAA!!! Big Bro your power hasn't changed at all. HAHAHA!!
Figure 4: Enough talk.
WHOOSH there was a sudden breeze and suddenly the 4 figures all disappeared in the blink of an eye. They could not be seen. They vanished and no evidence of their existence could be found.
Under the setting sun, the stage is set and an entity stares down upon the world, smiles and whispers. "Try your hardest. Show me what it means to be the REGIS"

Fallout: Vault X
An original novel set in the Fallout universe, written to be accessible to all, featuring unique people and places. Vol.II. out now Fallout: Vault X tells the story of John. A vault dweller, who spent every day of his twenty five years underground. Like his father, and his father before him. Proud to live in the last remaining bastion of humanity, all that survived The Great War of the atomic age. Hidden deep below the surface of the earth, toiling under brutal conditions. Year after year, decade upon decade. All to expand into the natural cave system the Vault occupied, building for the future. However, John knew what his forefathers did not, that everything he’d been taught was a lie. After finishing school at the age of ten, John received his standard issue pipboy. An arm mounted personal computer, worn by everyone in the Vault. Used to coordinate the relentless pace of expansion, needed to work as an apprentice. To learn the craft that would be his life’s work. A noble calling to ensure a future for all that remained of the human race. A quirk of fate saw John equipped not with the crude, clunky, pipboy model his father wore. That almost everyone around him wore. His looked smaller, sleeker, finished in a jet black sheen. And capable of doing far more than its drab counterparts. The world above had been ravaged by atomic flames, yet life clung to its bones. The Red Valley fared better than most in the century since the bombs fell. The clean water and rich soil protected by rolling hills. All spared from direct strikes, for the most part. Life survived here. Trees spawned from charred ground, misshapen, green leaves turned red. Along with simple crops, grown wild at first, then cultivated by the survivors. The scavengers of the old world were inventive, hardy people. All determined to rebuild in the ruins of a world they never knew. In the decades that passed settlements emerged. They grew, spreading along the valley floor. Reclaiming the pre-war remnants of the once industrialised heartland. Salvaging the robotic wonders of a bygone age to build their walls and work their fields. To protect them in the dark of the wasteland. But such things are uncommon in this world, and the rarer something is, the greater its value. And the worth of pre-war technology had not gone unnoticed. The last, real, power in this world rested in the mechanised hands of The Brotherhood of Steel. Forged from the mortally wounded old world military. The Brotherhood used its access to the weapons made for a conflict no one won to strike out into the wastes. Men and women were equipped with advanced armour, aerial transportation, high grade weaponry. Accompanied by the training, strength, and will, to put them to use. They established chapters and set up outputs far and wide. All dedicated to a single purpose. To ensure the technology left abandoned by its long dead creators didn’t fall into the wrong hands. Namely, any hands that were not their own. This is the world John escaped into. A place of horrors brought forth from atomic fire. A place where survival meant battling against the darkness. Fighting a war each day to get to the next. And war...war never changes

How to Raise Your Dungeon
A dungeon core awakens for the first time. It knows nothing, it has nothing, but it can hear something. Voices, whispering, talking, and sharing. For now, they are distant. But it believes, if it proves itself, they may provide it with wisdom and direction. And so its slow but steady growth begins. Polls will come when the dungeon specifically wants to choose between a number of options, and believes it will receive an answer. However, it will "hear" any comments made on the most recent chapter, and these will shape its behaviour. It trusts you implicitely. This story is an exercise in stretching my creative muscles, so with each decision made, the options and opportunities open to the dungeon will change- some closing off forever. The dungeon will face threats periodically, and its fate in these encounters will be heavily influenced by your advice, though it will of course do its absolute best even without advice. It hardly wants to die. Heavily inspired by There Is No Epic Loot Here, Only Puns, though my approach to the concept is somewhat different from that work.
