《My Hermit Life》Different World ( re-edit )
Advertisement
' My name is Solomon Ars Regis, I was a soldier in the United States of America. I served for 5 years before I was caught in the blast area of an explosive. In the explosion I lost both legs and became a citizen with a disability pension as my only real source of income. I made a bit of money off of wood working. I lived fairly happily after that, that is until I caught my wife of three years cheating on me one day after therapy. She wasnt just cheating either she was cheating with my own brother. I yell at them to leave. '
After they left Solomon just sat listening to music that his therapist recommended to calm him down . . . it didnt work, at all. When it didnt work Solomon turned on his own playlist and then sat brooding for hours, its impossible to know what he is thinking about but they are definetly bad thoughts.
Eventually though he just sighs and lays down to get some sleep, he fell asleep in an instant thanks to his military training. Before he fell asleep he couldnt help but think of how nice it would be to become a hermit, self sufficent, not having to deal with people, constant peace and calm were only some of the benefits he thought of.
While he was asleep he started to experience an extremely vivid and lifelike dream. The dream was of Solomon in a massive forest of trees. Occasional roars of beasts would sound out sometimes he would see faint outlines that showed legendary creatures that exist only in dream. Solomon just peacefully walked around happy to not only have his legs but to be able to enjoy such a mystical scene. While walking around he kept thinking of being a hermit, he doesnt need therapy much anymore, his only family members betrayed him, he would have plenty of money since he would only have to pay for himself. The more he thought about it the more sense it made.

After enjoying the peaceful scenes a dis-embodied rang out in the air around Solomon. The voice sounded like a young woman around maybe thirty years of age, she had a mischevious tone though it sounded like less of a prankster mischieveous and more of a natural tone. She asked a simple question.
" How would you like to live here? "
Solomon just replyed naturally. " I wish I could. "
" Then consider your wish granted. "
After that she didnt speak again and soon Solomon forgot about the short conversation once again getting lost in the botanical beauty of the forest.
A few hours later Solomon wakes up, though something is odviously odd. Solomon cant feel his body, he cant smell, sense, hear, taste but he can see. Though all he can see is the forest of his last dream.
Welcome Solomon Ars Regis to the forest " Land Of Giants " in the world of " Spinoza " I am the goddess of creation Angra Spentas. I brought you to this world as a sign of momentary pity for your sad life. This world is similar to various entertainment articles from your world such as games and stories. In the hopes that you wont die I will give you a blessing of choosing what kind of creatures you want as your parents. Good Luck.
Solomon after looking for a bit realizes the Angra Spentas mentioned on the screen is probably the voice that spoke to him in his dream. Not long after thinking that a new screen popped up in front of Solomon.

' So these are my options for my parents in the new world. They are all powerful and legendary creatures from various religions and mythologies from earth. '

' Well I odviously want to be powerful but I do want to maintain a humanoid shape. '
After a few minutes of thinking Solomon gains an assured expression and knows what creatures he wants to be birthed by.
" I choose God Monkey and Ancient Dragon as my parents. "
Solomon said this sentence out loud assuming that thats how the option is re-affirmed. Though after a few seconds nothing happens.
' Maybe I should try tapping the screen. '
The instant Solomon thinks that an an implosion of space surrounding Solomon makes what looks like a black hole where he was standing. Unfortuantely nobody was there to witness such beauty.
Hours later a fetus with molten golden hair and breath taking bronze skin talked out.

The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island. There are hardly any monsters, the land is fertile, and the people kind. This is the complete opposite of what Tristan wants. Bring on the monsters! Bring on the magical items! I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.
