《Another World: Scientist》Chapter 33. Farewell.
Advertisement
As most of the helicopter is complete I am out of a job right now.
Ion's handling the final parts, namely the solar panels and packing stuff on the helicopter.
I decided to go and say my goodbyes to the Empress and the others since I will not be seeing them for a while again.
I left the construction site and went straight for the throne room.
When I walked through the streets all attention was on me since people sometimes came to check what all the noise was and found me commanding people to build something.
Well it was Ion doing the talking me showing where to put things without actually opening my mouth once.
While building the helicopter I also got some more knowledge of the language as the builders were also communicating with eachother.
I also had Ion's help learning the language while we had nothing to do.
Our helicopter construction site was near the keep of the citadel but also far enough from the keep that we could get help from the lower levels of the city.
We had a bit of money to give out to people willing to help build the helicopter.
I reach the entrance to the throne room and before I enter I look around to see how many guards are here.
There are a few but not as many as usual... They might be guarding the construction site but I didn't notice any guards on my way here...
Well, it's not my problem right now so...
I open the doors to the throne room and enter.
Emilia is sitting on the throne with maids and butlers near her waiting for commands.
I walk closer to her and then bow down as should be.
She is the Empress of the country I've been getting resources from after all.

"Emilia. I shall be leaving for quest to find my sister. I will not be seeing you for a while so farewell. I hope to introduce my sister to you one day." (Hayden in the language of the Empire)
And that's the only sentence which I can say without it being definetly broken.
I look at Emilia and she seems sad but kind of joyful.
She tells me to get up and I notice it because of the hand movements she made.
I do a small bow and leave after she doesn't say anything for a while.
I look back before actually leaving the throne room but she just waves goodbye while having a sorrowful face.
I won't be away for forever so she'll just have to find something or somebody to occupy her mind since I know she's thinking of me right now.
I slowly start heading back to the construction site while having prying eyes looking at me everywhere.
Well... Most of the people I'm passing right now are aristocrats who were in the ball and saw me sitting right next to the Empress and know who I am.
When I reach the construction site it is basically empty except for Ion floating around it performing final checks on it.
"Everything is good to go. We have enough fuel for a round trip and then to the island again. Food and water for half a year. Necessary paper for... Human needs. We are all set and ready to go. I also know the course to the island as I have calculated it. Also the fuel also counts the fuel we use to light the way while flying at night." (Ion)
I enter the helicopter.
"What are we waiting for then?" (Hayden)
I turn the helicopter on and it's rotors slowly start spinning.

People suddenly gather near the helicopter but far enough not to get hit by it.
I guess the sound and wind brought them here.
Ion's 'sitting' in the co-pilots seat but we specialized it for Ion so he can control the helicopter as well when something happens to me for some reason.
Almost no wind up in the air, it's starting to get dark and it's perfect for us right now.
"Time to set off!" (Hayden)
I pull the helicopter off the ground and we start flying as the people down below stare in disbelief of us actually flying.
I take a course towards... Alicia.

Transposed
Apparently, even heaven had the odd clerical error. Which was not something Nathaniel Miller would have expected, and yet, that seemed to be exactly what had happened to him. The collector of souls seemed to have been given the wrong address, and instead of taking one Nathaniel Miller of the earth apparently right next door, he took Nate. As recompense for this small bit of error Nate was placed in the body of the Nathaniel Miller that had supposed to have been taken in the first place, and seeing as he now had an opportunity to try to live his life a different way he planned on taking advantage of this chance. No one, however, had specified how different this world would be from his, sure they had said the tech would be a little older, and there were other small anomalies. But no one had seen fit to let him know that older meant medieval, and those small anomalies mentioned? They probably referred to all the fantasy elements and magic that seemed to be part of this world. Still, he was determined to do better this time around, after all, chances like this were next to unheard of...

Recruit - An Infinite Labyrinth prequel
A prequel to The Infinite Labyrinth. The year is 1816. The British Empire is in full swing, under the auspices of King George III. The Infinite Labyrinth has been pouring out its product from beyond our reality and fostered a new industrial revolution. Times are changing, and the people of London are feeling the winds of the revolution while British Professionals push into the Labyrinth. The newly formed Artefact Hunting Company is looking for recruits, and they have new technology to help them. From the slums of London, they aim to recruit a new wave of Professionals. And make Zacharias and the Earl of Carnavon lots of money. So, for Rowan Rivers and a handful of lucky ones, it's time to head into the Labyrinth, and discover what makes it different from England. And what makes THEM different? Recruit is a bunch of chapters I wrote to create to the setting, mood, and game systems of the Infinite Labyrinth. It is NOT a complete story in the classic sense. It's more of a slice of life view of early days of a normal Professional from the Infinite Labyrinth, and it's heavy on info-dump. It's 90% canon - there's probably a bit of a difference between how some characters and common behaviour are portrayed here and how they'll come out in the main story. Set two years before the events that kick-start the main series, it features some of the secondary/peripheral characters of the Infinite Labyrinth and will tell you all about the basic mechanics of the Labyrinth's RPG system. It can be considered a spoiler, as the characters in the Infinite Labyrinth are going to need to figure out all that, on their own. But if you like a much deeper exposition in the mechanics, here it is. The entire prequel is about 80 pages long.

In Pursuit of Bark's Finest
On the frontiers of transhumanity’s expansion into the galaxy thousands of light years from the light of Sol, things can get rather chaotic. There are countless millions of nascent interstellar nations securing their interests, pirate ships prospering off plunder and deniable mercenary work, dissidents setting up their own civilizations, and other groups all trying to push an agenda. When these groups crash into each other, the results can become extremely messy and convoluted. Recently, a frontier nation calling itself the Red Star Union has found itself at the focal point of one such complication. A freighter under their protection has been sabotaged, hijacked in interstellar space, and robbed of its cargo. This would be bad enough even if all it were carrying was luxury goods, but the freighter Nebula Plow was carrying more than just normal trade goods. Indeed, her cargo of Non-Orientable Wormholes for use in starship power plants was both very expensive and very, very dangerous. Now the Red Star Union has to worry about a pirate crew running around with several extra devices capable of converting matter into antimatter with negligible energy cost. With those, the pirates could be capable of inflicting untold damage if allowed to leverage their ill-gotten gains into a stronger position, a possibility the Union finds completely intolerable. Unfortunately, all that the Red Star Union has to go on for evidence is two names; that of the captain, and that of the ship. The Captain is going by the possible pseudonym of Fuller, while the ship is named Bark’s Finest. And thus the orders came down to the Union’s Bureau of Starforce Intelligence: find more information on these pirates, conclusively identify them, and figure out where exactly they’ve gone to ground so that the fleet can crush them before they get established. Of the many agents that the bureau assigned to this mission, one would happen to play an important role: Field Agent Madeline Zargosty. This is her story. This story is entirely pre-written, and will have one chapter released per week. If you want to read it all ahead of schedule and get access to some premium-exclusive bonus content, the entire book is available for purchase; links to the appropriate storefront pages will be posted at the end of each chapter. This story is also being posted to Scribblehub.
