《A new life in a new world.》The first day in this world
Advertisement
Once I regained conscious I slowly opened my eyes and tried looking around but I realized I couldn’t. I couldn’t move and I was stuck looking up. I saw trees so I’m pretty sure I’m in a forest, the trees were huge or maybe that’s how I saw them. They looked like chestnut trees but their leafs were pointy like those of a pine tree and the trunks were black, it was an impressive sight, I’m a little sad since there wasn’t much sunlight in the forest since the trees blocked most of it.
While I stared at the scenery above me I heard sounds in the distance, I knew those sounds, and it took me a few seconds to remember, horses, I thought, and something else that sounded like a wheel, a carriage, now I just had to get their attention but I don’t know how, so I tried screaming for help.
“WHEEE” was the only sound that escaped my mouth and now both my ears and my mouth hurt, but I kept screaming or crying since it appears right now they meant the same thing.
The carriage slowed down but I couldn’t hear very well since my crying was disturbing me more than anything.
After a few seconds, I guess, I felt a presence near me and I saw the world spinning with me for a few moments, then I saw her, I think, a person with what seemed like a gentle face, white but a little tanned skin, and a dark hair colour, for some reason my image was blurry and the lack of sunlight didn’t help. I understood that she picked me up and I felt like a could move, so I moved my head a little to the right, something I deeply regret, and I saw some people or bodies lying on the ground, OH GOD, now I recognize the smell, that’s fucking blood, what the hell happened, so let’s organize things a little, 1. there are dead people on the ground, 2.the smell of blood is in the air, and 3.The woman picked me up from that pile of bodies, well this could have gone a lot better and by now it is safe to assume that all these people have been recently killed. I tried to look at the place the woman picked me up from to confirm something, long hair, shiny things in the ears and hair and most importantly breasts, that person could have been my mother. I looked back at the woman holding me and I think she was angry not sad, I wonder why? , and I realised the woman started walking towards the carriage.

My assumptions were correct, that was a carriage and it seems the woman wasn’t alone, a person was standing on the left side acting as the driver. The carriage was about 2 meters long and 1 meter wide. The woman put me inside the carriage and sat with the man.
“$%^&$£”, Are they speaking?
“..*^&X*^&*”, I heard a male voice and a female voice but I couldn’t understand what they were saying.
The carriage started moving and at the same tame I started praying I won’t grow up as a slave, well if I live long enough.
I was a baby whose parents are dead, I don’t know the people who found and my MEH powers aren’t working, so it is impossible for me to scan them and see what I have gotten myself into.
Both my body and my mind were tired so I unconsciously fell asleep.
Something woke me up, I realized the carriage wasn’t moving anymore.
“$$£$%%:@:##”, the woman said something and took me out of the carriage.
When I got out I decided to look up and I saw a blue sun, OK that’s new, oh well I hope there is a book for that. I quickly closed my eyes and then I opened them a little so I can adjust to the change in lighting. I winked a few times and my eyes finally adjusted to the light. I looked at the woman holding me, she had aqua blue eyes, red lips, a gentle smile, long eyelashes, black, long hair and judging by her face I think she was 30 years old. The man who was with her was tall, short, brown hair, green eyes and had the body of a bodybuilder, something like He-Man on steroids or worse. The carriage looked worn out, that being the only detail that catches your eye, since it looked simple enough.

We arrived home, I guess, a house in the middle of a forest who looked exactly like the one I woke up in. The house had 2 floors, the exterior was made out of something that looks like black-ish wood so I think they used some of those black trees when they built it. The entrance was decorated, if you can call a few metal trinkets on a wooden door a decoration, one strange thing is that there was no fence, just a lock on the front door, something just didn’t seem right or maybe it was just the fact that my body felt weak and my powers were not working.
“#£$%^##£%#.”
The man told the woman something and went inside the house and she, with me in her arms, went inside with him.
The interior was simple, there was a hallway, to the left and right there were entrances, maybe to other rooms, at the end of the hallway there were stairs and near the stairs was a metal door. I really wanted to know what that door was but my body was getting tired and I fell asleep again.

The Card Thief of Culnivar
Deep with the cozy kingdom of Daeton, among the generation-old farmlands and villages, a young farmer’s daughter stumbles upon a dead man. His elaborate clothing has been torn to ribbons, yet his skin remains unblemished. His face is peaceful, and tucked into the hand lying across his chest can be seen a solitary playing card. He is a Ludum Haeres. The last remnant of a Summoner. Numbered among those few capable of changing their destinies. The unseen rulers of the world known as Vesperia, and one of the most powerful creatures in existence. The woman knows none of this. And so, she picks up the card... This is my third novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the second being "The Dawnfire Archives". This story is something of a test in a new genre, that of CardLIT. We'll see how well it succeeds as the story continues. It takes place in a different setting than my other tales, with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.

Spirits of Eternity(A cultivation story based on spirits)
There are many after Liv, for what she can do. Spirits flock to her and help her, while the rest of the world captures them and uses their power with abandon. Liv set forth to find the truth behind her parents’ death, after their final message. After hearing their voice, Liv was offered a decision. Live safely, or be the best. Just like someone from the past, Liv decided to step towards strength. The magic system in this world is based on a few types of energy: Note(for Songs), Will(for Thought), Mana(for ordinary magic, because I felt like it), what is referred to as 'energy' here(for talking to spirits), and Dominion(for Aura). This is still a work in progress. Any suggestions are welcomed. This and my other work, Monsters as Men, are set in the same world. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
