(Authors Notes) First Time Writing a story enjoy
3rd person point of view
In a small village full of half-giants (Fully Grown their usually 6-7 Feet Tall Or 1.8 meters-2.1 meters tall) there was a baby in a crib, this baby was not normal instead of the usual Red hair or Blue hair that the half giants had this baby had hair so dark you can get lost just looking at it. His eyes looked to be a hazelnut color but, if you stared at his eyes you can notice that will occasionally have a variety of colors. Their stood two half-giant figures looking over the baby a muscular somewhat older male half-giant and a somewhat plain looking female half-giant. They were the parents of the baby Ogthar and Inga.
(AN. Going with It)
Ogthar Perspective
BWWWAAAAAHHHHAAAR I finally have a son BWWWAAAAAHHHHAAAR. (Ogthar)
Honey can you keep it down you will wake up the baby and the whole town. (Inga)
What did you say sweetie? (Ogthar)
Nothing Honey. (Inga)
Ok getting on to business doesn’t he look a little strange? (Ogthar)
Yes he does but, he is my child it can’t be helped. (Inga)
Well I’m going to stay here to play with the little tyke. (Ogthar)
Ok do not hurt him. (Inga)
I promise I won’t (Ogthar)
This how are tiny Main Character spent most of his time being played with his parents and being fed. When He was 4 he was sent to school to learn how to read and write. When he turned 10 he was old enough to learn how to wield a sword and fight and learn earth magic from his mother (half-giants have a high affinity to earth magic)
(AN. I also, forgot to mention a Main Characters name now where is that paper a yes Bellator)
Perspective Change Bellator
Now I’m 12 years old and learning how to fight and survive in the wild with dad and learning how to use magic, to skin an animal, to sow, and cooking from mother. I’m currently looking at my reflection in a pond I am about 5 foot 2 Inches (1.5 Meters if you use the metric system nerds) and I look somewhat handsome with my straight hair below my ears and covering eyes while having a somewhat muscular body.
Honey it’s time for your lesson. (Inga)
Yes, Mother. (Bellator)
As I walk into the house I look at it for a second it is a tall home with that is 1 story it has 5 separate
rooms and a red tint to it.
Ok sweetie get your things and go to school. (Inga)
Sure mom. (Bellator)
As I was walking to school I see my childhood friend Veronica she is 4ft 9in (1.2 Meters) She has cool blue hair and has a plain face.
Hey Bellator (Veronica)
Hey Veronica *Waves (Bellator)
While walking to school we talk about the usual things we talk about then we sit down and wait for the lesson while talking

Ok brats settle down. Today is your final day of school so we are going to review what we learned. Their 9 main races Humans, Elves, Demi-Humans, Draconian, Fairies, Demons, Angels, Beast Men and Dwarves The humans are 2 most abundant behind Demi-humans most of them lack talent with the elements or fighting what they do to make this up is their sheer numbers. The longed lived elves are a bit taller than humans they are skinny with pointed ears and are good with magic not so much with weapons and act all snooty. Demi-Humans are a multitude of different species such as us half-giants. Other examples are goblins, orcs, trolls, or are distant cousins the feral half-giants do not be fooled the may look like us but they have protrusions on their backs and face with cracked skin. The next is the longed lived draconian that are strong and good with the fire element. The fairies have a multitude of different species like us demi-humans most of them specialize in one type of element and most are longed lived. Next are the battle crazed demons that are living on the planet or the ones you can summon but, you shouldn’t fun fact they hate Angels. Next are Angels they kind and friendly there are some that live on the planet and some that you can summon but, you shouldn’t fun fact the hate demons. Beast men have multiple species such as cat, dogs, fish, or birds. Lastly the short but, powerful dwarves they are very good at blacksmithing and fighting. (Generic Teacher #1)

Ok Kiddies something is wrong go to the town hall while a take care of some business. (Generic Teacher #1)
While we go the town hall we see torches coming down the mountain and are coming towards the village. Instead of going to the town hall I picked up my bag full of my things and the iron sword father gave me for my birthday. I hauled ass back to my classmates while they going to the town hall then suddenly a boulder flies towards my classmates they started to scramble to get out of the way
Move! (Bellator)
I jumped to intercept the boulder while invoking rock armor
Wha!?!? (Classmates)
I invoked rock armor but, the boulder exploded with fire magic when I intercepted it and launched past the tree line when I landed I looked up to see a sea of fire where the village was a looked for injuries I found I had fractured ribs and a nasty gash on the side of my forehead I tore off my sleeve to make a make-shift bandage then a wave of nausea hit me then I throw up and lost my conciseness.
3rd person point of view
People wearing white hooded robes were dragging a body into a burnt down town scorched with black. They dragged the body into the middle of the city were a pentagram was with bodies strewed about.

Good you brought more alive people for the sacrifice to summon the Angel drop him into the circle so the ritual can start. (Cultist Leader)
Yes Sir (Cultist #1)
Good this is the last body we need. (Cultist Leader)
Bellator Point of view
When I woke up a saw my mother and father standing over my body while holding a dagger covered in blood I was surprised to see then then I was shocked when they plunged the bloody dagger into my body.
Why?!?! (Bellator)
This is for the greater good we need to summon an Angel. (Ogthar)
I so sorry honey. (Inga)
They plunge the dagger into my chest then my vision became blurry until it turned black
Perspective Change 3rd Person
The pentagram started to glow and a being with white wings and a holy aura was summoned.
Thank you for freeing me. (Angel?)
We need you help we need to defeat the draconians that marched here to attack us. (Cultist Leader)
Fools you fell for our trap (Angel???)
The angel shape shifted into a red demon with small horns with a nasty reddish and black aura.
Fools you fell for our trap and thought draconians were attacking you instead it was Demons (Summoned Demon)
The army over the horizon changed into a group of rough looking demons wearing various armors
Now that you freed me you will suffer nagh nagh nagh. * Evil laugh (Evil Summoned Demon)
The red demon started to tear apart the half-giants then used their bodies to make the tare he got through bigger freeing a larger number of demons.
Perspective change ???
I finally escaped that hell hole now I’m free to do whatever I want currently I am flying over where the tear appeared. I see a bunch of bodies strewed about but when I start looking there is body that looks like my younger brother that died. I fly close towards the corpse but, it is not a corpse he is barely alive though now getting a closer look he more handsome than my brother and is well built. I decide to take over his body and to heal his injury which is a dagger in his chest so I rip it out and heal him. I then move him away from the minor demons and lesser demons flooding out of the tear. This might leave a giant scar but o’well not my problem then I notice he has a pack on him so I place the dagger in it might as well give him a chance to survive. Ok now time to drop him off in a cave around here. I found one quite a ways from the town. Might as well look over this fool from the shadows for a while but, he does look my dear brother.
This going to be interesting (???)
Perspective Change Bellator
I wake up in a dark place then I remember everything that happened to me then I start balling remembering my parent’s betrayal.
Why Why Why. (Bellator)
I repeat while hitting the floor and crying.
Why did my parents betray me why did they kill me then I notice that my hand is hurting does you hand hurt in purgatory. Then I start looking around and notice a light I get up and go towards it. I stumble a bit while going towards the light when I get their I think it was a bad dream but I notice my shirt has a hole in it and has blood stains I lift it up and I have a huge scar where I was stabbed by my parents.
So they actually did it. (Bellator)
I break down crying for a while. When I recover with a sniffly nose and swollen cheeks I think how did I survive I decide that is not important now in push it to the back of my mind. I notice the sun is going down so I decide to climb the hill above the cave to look at the city when I get on the hill what I see stuns me the town is flooded with demons. I resolve myself to stay in the cave then move further into the forest that is next to the town during the first light of day.
I need to live to have my revenge. (Bellator)
*The Next Day
I wake up and notice the cave is more illuminated. With the light I see my pack next to me it must have been next to me when I slept. I start checking the contents a Frying Pan with herbs and salt, a crystal that serves as an Identification (AN. I call it Identacrystal), and a locket with a picture of my family
when I was little while looking at made me start tearing up, and at the bottom I notice there a dagger in their I finally realize it’s the dagger that almost killed me. After putting everything except the locket and the dagger I put on the locket put on my pack then pick up the dagger on the floor.
The dagger that almost killed me is the only thing that is going to protect me from monsters ironic. (Bellator)
While I walked to a better location to live. I lost all trust in everything so I decided to become a hermit (AN. Not happening) when I take a short break I notice a stream so I start drinking water. * Grumble
Dang I’m starving I better find shelter before I go hunting (Bellator)
With my luck I find a cave a little ways away from the stream when I walk in I feel like a boulder is on my shoulder I kneel trying to get up after about an hour I get up used to the weight and try to move out little by little until I finally got out. I decide to sleep outside the cave after I eat some food and low and behold there is a fruit tree with apples so I grab about ten eat then then go to sleep.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better. (Bellator)
(AN. Hoped you like the story another chapter will come out in two days or less)

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.

But this time they will be born as dungeons and try to ascend again into the Divine Realm with a whole army at their backs to get revenge.
