Advertisement
Hello everyone, here's the next side story and hope you enjoy it. Also it seems that I still have one more day of break so the slow pace won't happen until after tomorrow. Hope you all enjoy this side story.
-----------------
There once was a time when seven beings appeared. One of them was called Ongarin, the God of creation, truth and wisdom. The place they appeared in was silent and dark.
In his infinite wisdom, he ordered his fellow beings to create a world to fill this darkness. And so they did and they named it Arun. It consisted of one large continent and many smaller ones surrounding it.
Though they created the world, it was empty and devoid of life. And so, under Julia, the Goddess of life, reproduction and healing, life itself was introduced into the world.
Humans, Elves, and Dwarves lived for a time. After a while, the God of war, death and passion, became bored and so created his favored race, the beastmen.
These beastmen ravaged the lands of the humans, elves and dwarves and upon seeing their plight. The God of magic, creativity, and intellect introduced the power of magic.
With newfound powers, they were able to fight back the beastmen and subdued them. Upon seeing such fun, Finda, the Goddess of luck, trials and tribulations forced the world into a large trial.
This trial caused the world to change and many other events to happen. The world split into five large continents and six oceans. The Elves became High Elves, Dark Elves and Blood Elves.
The Dwarves who were above the ground became Dark Dwarves while those below became Stone Dwarves. Some were able to remain as they were and were simply known from then on as Dwarves.
The humans that lived in the mountains grew wings to fly with. Those in the forests became part of the beastmen that they subdued. They created many different tribes ranging from the docile rabbitmen to the ferocious tigermen. Of course some humans stayed as humans as they lived in the plains among themselves.

The most curious effect though, is the dragon race. Interference caused by Finda caused some dragons to become much stronger and be sentient. Dragons at the time were considered as large beasts but now no longer.
There were few of them though so they lived in seclusion and in hiding. These were the races caused by the mischievous Finda. Who caused the continents and the oceans to remain as they are now.
The northern continent is known as the Ice Front, an everlasting frozen wasteland, it harbored beasts of unimaginable size and mountains of extreme cold. This land became the favored home of the dragons.
The eastern continent is known as the Plani continent. A mountainous and rugged land where the lesser and greater dragons reside along with the winged humans, Blood elves, and Stone Dwarves.
The western continent is known as the Asura continent. A massive jungle land where a threat is always behind you. Humans, Dark Elves and the Dwarves live here.
The central continent is known as the Lunaria continent. A land for all climates. A desert, thousands of islands, snowy peaks and pleasant plains. Most of the humans live here along with the greatest of the dwarven holds and the high elves.
The southern contient is known as the Junx continent. It is a mysterious land surrounded by shadow and darkness. A land touched by &%& as it was his resting place.
Oh yes, &%&, the God of Power, Destruction and Ambition. A story that took place after the creation of Arun.
It is said that he coveted the throne of Ongarin. Which god or goddess said so is lost in time.
When Ongarin heard this, even if it was a rumor, it was enough. Ongarin confronted &%& and attempted to kill him. Sadly, a God cannot be killed by another God.

The most he could do was scatter his remains. As luck or as Finda would have it, &%&’s remains landed on Junx and it became as it is now. A land shrouded in darkness.
And so it was said that the world was removed of an evil God.
But little did they know that &%& had left something for the world and to the Gods themselves.
&%& vowed to find the one responsible for his death. &%& was Ongarin’s sibling afterall. They were inseparable and whoever manipulated Ongarin was to be killed for Ongarin would never do this to his sibling.
And so he sent his messengers, the Ravenex, birds with two heads, six wings and twelve tails, to search for clues to find whoever manipulated Ongarin.
Alas, the unknown hand maneuvered and slaughtered them all.
Having nothing to do but to gather power he looked for another way and saw it. A light from some distance. &%& knew that there was someplace in Arun that just had that same light only dimmer.
&%& used his whole power to bring that bright light towards the dimmer one and fused them together. Satisfied, &%& slumbered and could only hope that what was done would work.
That child would grow powerful and find the unknown hand for that hand was not a god’s.
Who then among the pantheon is actually a devil?

The Rules of Dungeoneering
The First Rule of Dungeoneering: This will kill you Sylvester Bayes, the 4th son of a small baron, has suddenly had his head filled with the memories and work of someone who had dedicated their life to memorizing every dungeon they could find and designing a new RPG system. Not about to waste these gifts, Sylvester quickly sets out to get rich quick and discover the reasons behind his sudden knowledge. (Please note, this is dressed up actual play from my testing of a tabletop RPG. It is actually how the game has gone and there is a very real chance that anyone, including Sylvester, could die in any encounter. To help make my job easier I am using dungeons written by other people, which is why I have listed this as a fanfiction. I put links to all of them in the chapters where they are relevant.)

8 166The Plan
An infinite world couldn’t be real, but if it was, well this would happen. Imagine a world that isn’t covered in water, but an endless atmosphere. Plates of land, named “islands”, float and drift almost aimlessly. There is no sun, stars, roof, or floor; just boundless air in every direction. Light is generated from the movement of air flow. Magical and mystical powers keep islands floating and the world full of fresh entropy. Some of these floating islands drift upwards or downwards or any combination of volatile or patterned velocities. Air flow also follows the same characteristics of islands, which generates the light and heat. In a world with no horizon, the different inhabitants struggle. Beings calling them selves deities across the endless space are countless. If you were to fall off an island, you would inevitably hit another island; if you didn’t die from old age first. Many inhabitants don’t know the land further than their own eye sight or town they grew up in. Almost all inhabitants of islands have supernatural abilities, ranging in ability and skill. Magical abilities are kept individually; and mystical powers are borrowed. Islands float because the land is enchanted by either a magical or mystical crystal. Magical islands are known for vertical variance, while mystical islands are known for vertical stability. The islands rotate around focal points, known as 'the center'. There are many 'the center', but no one knows this yet... Warning: Tagged Mature 18+ for Strong Language, Gore, Violence, and sexual scenes. Google Drive (Click here to open new window) WIP/spoilers
8 282The Seven Winged Butterfly
« Is your life really that boring? ». « I mean, I wouldn’t say that it’s boring. It’s just…normal. I wake up, I go to lesson, I get back home to study, I read some web novels or watch some episodes of a series, and then I go to sleep. And the next day it starts again ». … « Sometimes I wonder how would it be like to live an adventurous life, like the characters of those novels…to really have an extraordinary life… ». ... « A superpower? Interesting…what superpower would you choose? ». ------------------------------------------------------------------- What would you do if you were suddenly gifted a superhuman ability? Would you use it to enjoy the pleasures of life? Would you try conquering fame and power? Would you create a better world for those around you? Now, what if you realized that you are not the only one gifted with a unique power. That there are six more like you, but whose powers and intentions you ignore completely. What would you do then? Is it safe to just keep living your life as you please? Would you track them down to make sure that they are peaceful? Or would you hunt them to make sure that you are the only "special" one in the world? That mysterious countdown that keeps ticking certainly doesn't help.
