Chapter 25
When I open the door I see a rather empty room with nothing but a fire place on one wall, a couch that look like it had been recently moved to face the door, and an incubus reading on said couch.
“Hey uncle” jack
“About damn time you got out of there” uncle
“I had to make it a little more interesting, so where is everyone else?” jack
“Their all dead asleep, it’s the middle of the night” uncle
“The guys that attacked us were your golem’s right?” jack
“Who else could get a hold of that poison? Char literally begged me to make some last night, just for you” uncle
Char, or rather charlotte, is my aunt’s first name.
“So how’d the experiment go, I heard you finished it the day this all happened” jack
“Oh, that’s right. I said I would tell you about it when I finished it.” Uncle
“All I know is that it had something to do with our neighbors, the guy with the wife and three kids” jack
“You know how incubi and succubi specialize in dream magic right?” uncle
“Yes, of course I know. I’ve had some experience with it myself.” Jack
“Well, I would send a dream to the man every night.” Uncle
“What type of dream?” jack
“One where he kills his wife and his oldest two kids only to be killed by his youngest.” Uncle
“So what happened?” jack
“Well every night I would make the people look slightly less human every night.” Uncle
“Interesting” jack
“Then the day the system came online he woke up and killed his family with a baseball that he was planning on giving to his son for his birthday, the same way I had him kill his family in the dream.” Uncle (if you get this reference you are the most amazing person in the entire world, and ghost will visit you in your dreams tonight)

“With the way you did that of course it would turn out that way, well I should probably get too bed” jack
“Oh come on, keep an old man company” uncle
“You still look to be in your late 20s early 30s” jack
“I’m 212 already, my wife is almost half my age” uncle
“Well aunty is 85 this year” jack
“Why don’t you tell me about your resent adventure, It sounded pretty exciting, especially in the bedroom” uncle
“What else would I expect to hear from an incubus” jack
At that he just smiles.
“Well, it’s not like I need sleep anyway.” Jack
And so I spend the night recounting my adventure, with uncle begging for more details about certain parts, and listening to uncle’s trip to their dungeon. It turns out that there was only one type creature in it, trolls, which are really irritating due to their insane regeneration. He ended up making a poison out of their blood and some magic to counter their regeneration. All in all it took about 8 hours for them to complete it.
“So I saw Johanna became a sprite” uncle
“Yeah, so” jack
“Theirs no way you didn’t have fun with that” uncle
Oh yeah, uncle is a closet pervert.

Anthony is your average, unassuming programmer that wakes up from a dream only to find the world he knew is gone, along with much of his memory of it. He is forced to fight for his life (badly) and try to help others (unwillingly) in a desperate bid for not only his own survival, but that of humanity as a whole. Join me on my first expedition into writing anything longer than a book report as I ramble endlessly and attempt to cushion the whole thing with exotic adventures in a game world.

In a world of mystery with dozens of races, known and unknown, the young Priestess Glissandi sets out into the world, acccepting her sacred task as a missionary. The young, intelligent woman is accompanied by the wise and careful Paladin Lissa, the young, experienced and reclusive Knight Trista and the two over-eager and talented Squires Mira and Mina as she sets forth on a grand adventure, only to quickly run into what seems to be a deep conspiracy, stretching back to one enigmatic person. Determined to bring him to Light and justice in the Lord's name, she ignores the warnings all around her and goes chasing after a being who everyone fears, but is she really prepared for the truths she will encounter on her journey? Sanguilia, Guide extraordinaire and strange woman all around, is accompanying a trade caravan when disaster strikes. At first glance she is no more than a Guide, which is no lowborn title itself, as it represents individuals who are capable of traversing the unknown wilds and are well versed in the languages of the land and its inhabitants. As she enters a city on her way home, a new, massive problem rears its head. Accompanied by a bar wench, who is far more than she seems, the mercenary Orc, Daenan and his tiny, flying companion, Faen, all with their own plans and agendas, they seek to tackle a monster in the shape of a man who controls the city. In the depths of the woods, far away from what humanity sees as the centre of civilisation, the lone, independent city of Lanas prepares itself for war, for the Kingdom of Maldora has set its eyes on them and their wealth. A cry for help goes out and bonds long faded into obscurity are renewed. And the world quakes when their calls are answered. Melena, once a slave girl, resides happily in the Mansion and is slowly getting used to her new life, where equality seems to rule. Until a noble's son decides that her very attractive body is something he should own. When the enigmatic master of the Mansion decides to personally deal with the rulebreaker, her world is turned upside down as she stumbles upon ancient mysteries that threaten to overwhelm her. Luckily she finds support in her once-liberator, now turned friend, the happy-go-lucky Evon, who carefully hides his past, the ghost-like Khrast, Kreya and many others. It is a tale of adventure, of lies and deceit, of love lost and found, of bravery and cowardice and where every one of our heroes and villains alike strive to find the answer to the same question: who is the being behind the Mansion of the Woods?
