《Reality or Game》Prologue

"nOW THEN, ENJOY rEALITY!" a voice dreaded by everyone in this world resounded.
"... the same dream..." muttered a certain girl while panting after waking from her nightmare.
The girl cloaked the blanket around herself. Lying on the bed, she buried herself underneath the pillow as if to protect herself.
The bed was by no means comfortable. The girl knew this was not her home. This was a cheap inn found in a certain city. The sheets and pillows, while not dirty, smelled from overuse. The bed creaked at every slight movement of the girl. The room was cramped and small. The walls were on the verge of falling apart. Yet the girl chose to stay in this room for one reason-what lay outside horrified her even more.
The girl spent the past two weeks shut in her room, afraid of the world outside. The girl passed each day reading at the Help System. From the Help System, she learned various information about the world she was in, but she was nevertheless too afraid to take action.
The girl glanced towards the upper right.
Player Name: Dove Chaim Rinslet
Job Class: Assassin
Element: Wind
Equipment: Basic Bow, Basic Sword, Clothes
Abilities: Wind Walk
Information regarding her could be seen from the open menu in the upper right.
On the upper left, the following could be seen by the girl.
Date: June 15, XX17
Location: Naut City
Current Fitts: 800
"It's been two week since I came here. When will this end?"
Tears fell from the girl's eyes as she hopes, "Someone save me..."
The sound of a message notification interrupted the girl's tears. The girl clicked on the notification that could be seen in front of her.
Note: June 15: Parent's Wedding Anniversary
The moment the girl saw the note, her tears stopped.

"What am I doing?" the girl chuckled at her own incompetence. "Father and Mother never taught me to be dependent on others. If there was something I wished to achieve, I have to do all in my power to reach it. Whether I succeed or fail, it matters. It's better to try and regret than regret not trying."
The girl smiled at herself as light refilled her previously lifeless eyes.
A mere notification leftover from her phone began everything. Something so simple gave the girl the resolve to shed her cocoon and take action.
Here begins the adventure of Dove Rinslet.

Unfettered Spear
[Ratata~] Being showered with bullets from all directions, I certainly don't feel so good. Especially, feeling the bullets passing through my body, which is simply torture. After God knows how long, the gunfire finally stopped. I had my head down, contemplating that this was the end. However, it was at this time that I heard someone jumping off the car in front. I looked up and saw that it was the "Boss." "I should've done this much sooner, you really done a number on my men despite being alone!" "I must admit that you are good, but too good that you're a threat to MY throne!!" "I–" Alas, the Boss' monologue was cut halfway through. When he held his head high, an action to signify his pride, a bullet pierced through his under chin into his brain and out the back of his head. He looked at me in disbelief, like the others around. None of them anticipated that I could still fire my pistol, much less accurately aiming at one's head at the hip level, after being turned into a bloody meat-sieve. "You... Monster!!!" To the Boss' dying words, I only replied with a smile as my strength left my body.

Voidsong (A NaNoWriMo 2018 winner)
Synopsys: The Empire thought humanity died, and forgot all about it. The Empire is mistaken. A Note From the Author: This story was written as a National Novel Writing Month 2018 entrant. As such, its entire 50,000+ word length was written between November 1, 2018 and November 31, 2018. Overall, I would consider this no more than a polished draft. In that vein, the chapters have no names, only numbers. Special thanks to Chronus on youtube for answering my questions on NATO radio procedures! My Apologies to the Finnish Language, which I have abused in (probably) unforgivable ways to create Twisted Empire names. If anyone is interested, break the names up by commas and toss them into your favorite translation program (I used Google Translate, and tried to avoid umlauts and other accents) for some semi bilingual boni. If I got something wrong (and I know I did… somewhere…) let me know over on reddit and I will see what I can do to fix the mistake. Lyrics, where included, are cited in footnotes.
