Author - Why do I have a feeling most people are going to regret not reading this chapter with music on? Oh well... Might aswell limit that regret to 0. Here you go... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1p80Z_jhMs&list=RDD1p80Z_jhMs (Credits to the people who wrote the song aka Heartist.)
Also guys... Tell me if you want me to change the title to a little better one. ( Current Idea - World Transportation: Gamer's Road. You may give more ideas if you want.)
A few hours pass after the first wave.
I look at the enemy army on the other side that now has shield bearers as the front so they can easily get close to us if our mages run out of mana and my log trap empties...
Yaay... We are dead if the only two very limited things run out!
The enemy starts slowly advancing over the bridge and our mages start casting so when they come close enough we can attack them...
The enemy reaches the middle point and our mages absoloutely destroy them and keep destroying them but they don't slow down...
They keep charging forward and we try to slow them down with arrows but their shields block the arrows and they keep marching forward.
Our mages fall back a little to regenerate mana because they run out very quickly...
My log trap is the last defence...
The enemy reaches the end of the bridge and I wait three more seconds before releasing the first wave of logs...
But things don't go like expected... I only crush the first three lines of the enemy before my logs are stopped by their shields.
They quickly run past the logs while our archers keep firing arrows at them from above and the sides.
I release the second wave of logs when most of them go past the first logs but they block those using only one line as a sacrifice...

We... Are screwed.
I look as all the mages from our side rush back to cast as much magic as they can but I clearly see that they are very exhausted because of low mana...
I cast a few fireballs too before they reach the log trap.
I bring out my sword and look as the few soldiers helping me are being thrown around like ragdolls by the shieldmen...
One of the shieldmen runs toward me but I manage to barely dodge the charge as he stumbles down and meets one of our soldiers with his back to the sky...
Our men run down from the ramparts to meet the foe and I see an enemy soldier without a shield running towards me with his blade raised...
A fatal mistake as Silan has taught me...
I prepeare to slash open the guts of the enemy soldier but when he gets close to me I hesitate for a second and he already has his blade coming towards my head...
"So this is my end..." (Colin)
Or so I thought... Xavier stabs the man while charging him to the ground, saving me.
He then gets up to fight another soldier and I see a shieldman running towards Xavier but he doesn't seem to notice him...
I must save him!
I run towards the shieldman and when he notices I am coming he changes his direction to running towards me...
I charge at him while he charges at me... It's him or me who is going to die... And I'd prefer him.
When I get close enough I dodge him and grab his shoulder while he is running past and I slit his throat with my katana...
Blood flies all over my face as he falls to the ground lifeless and I get up and see three men running at me with killing intent in their eyes...

I quickly look around for any advantages I can get and in the midst of my search I find no advantages but I do see the general...
The three swordsmen get very close to me and one of them already swings at me but I parry it and slash at him but miss...
I jump backwards and bump into somebody and when I look behind me I see an enemy shieldman...
"Oops..." (Colin)
I jump to the left as one of the enemy swordsman stabs his own comrade from behind and one of the conscripts stabs the swordsman's face...
I guess that's one way to deal with them...?
The two swordsmen run towards the conscript and I go to help him because a two versus one situation will end with the death of the conscript...
I charge at one of the swordsmen from the side slashing his arm clean off and then I cut into his throat but I don't decapitate him as I did not put enough strength into it...
Blood flies everywhere and a lot of it gets on my clothing and my face.
I run towards the other swordsmen who is fighting the conscript after pulling my sword out of the dead swordsman's neck.
I am using every surprise attack possible right now...
I charge at the man from the back and jump onto his back and slit his throat and jump off him as he falls to the ground.
The conscript slightly bows and runs off to help others and I run off to the other direction where Xavier is.
I see Xavier fighting four people at the same time but he is on the defensive...
Two swordsmen and two shieldmen...
The shieldmen pose more of a threat...
I run behind one of the shieldsmen and slash at his back a ton before he turns around and Xavier stabs him from behind and I run to the second one and repeat the process.
I then help Xavier dispatch the other two by cutting their throats.
I see the general and a few others in a circle killing anybody who isn't a friendly and gets too close...
Xavier runs that way and I run too.
We join the circle and start defending aswell...
The battle is far from over and many have fallen already...
If I do get out of this alive... I am calling it a miracle.

The Tears of Kas̆dael
It was just supposed to be a game. A really, really great game, yes - but a game. Instead, Jasper got his heart ripped out by a brooding goddess and awoke to find himself in another world. No weapons, no skills. Naked. Trapped in a world full of ancient horrors, where gods and monsters still roam the earth, Jasper is forced to adapt quickly or die - and he's not ready to die. Good thing he's a mage. This is a high-fantasy novel with light LitRPG elements. It's not super-crunchy, but the system is an important part of the story. There is some light cursing and gore, but this is not a Grimdark novel. There will also be no harem. The current schedule is chapters on M-W-F of around 2000-2500 words, as well as occasional bonus chapters that provide background or insights into side characters. This is my first real attempt at writing a full novel, but the story is based on a world that I've been creating and re-creating since I was a child. I have an extensive "history" and religion, and even a semi-cohesive language system worked out, which will hopefully slowly shine through as the story progresses. I want to avoid having too many info-dumps, so I may from time to time post a bonus lore chapter that will explain some of the background for any who are interested.

The Heavy
The Mystery Play business is a niche, but profitable market in the underground community of magical types that's sometimes known as the Occulture. Folks from the old magic families will pay big bucks to experience the sort of life that they imagine for an urban fantasy protagonist, and catering to their dreams puts food on the table. Raymond Doyle is a professional in his field- which is to say, he's the guy who shows up to threaten the star of the show on orders from an antagonist. He's the Heavy. The muscle. He's good at the job. And unfortunately, he may just have to play an entirely different part for this tour package, because the would-be detective turned up dead before he had a chance to threaten them.

The King's Queen
#7 in vampire #1 in queenThe world has gotten boring to him after living for many centuries, through many generations. He thought of it as a curse. His gift was anything but a gift, in his opinion. He loved killing people. He always has. He enjoyed seeing the life being drained out of them, quite literally. He always drank every last drop of their life essence, he didn't have mercy. Though he was the king there was something he could never have unlike others of his kind. A soulmate. He hadn't been turned or born from vampire parents. No, he was born a monster from human parents. The first of his kind. Why he was born like it, he didn't know. He didn't care. All he knew was that he wanted to die already, since he had no mate to look forward to. He lived because he couldn't die, at least not physically. He had no reason to live, but many reasons to die and even though he tried many times by many methods, none of them suceeded. He staked himself, on multiple occasions. It felt like a needle piercing his skin. He hung himself. He didn't die, but he hung there, very much conscious.He went on the gillotine. It made his body dissapear and reappear in the same spot he was born in. He took his heart out. He grew one back. He bled out. His blood regenerated. He used silver stakes. They burned his flesh. He overdosed. It did nothing since drugs, alcohol and other dangerous things do absolutely nothing to him, except get him under the influence to a certain level. But none of them filled the emptiness in his heart. He just needed her. But all he got were unimportant girls he used and forgot about. He never felt anything for them. He couldn't. But then on that day while he was walking around a small town's forest, he felt the emptiness slowly being filled up a bit. He stood there in shock. He couldn't believe it. He almost cried of happiness, right then and there.He had her. He had a mate. His mate. His one and only mate. His Queen.
