《Re: Dystopia (Completed)》Chapter 1. Beginning.
Advertisement
I was just a slave in my past life... I didn't even live for fifteen years and didn't even have a name... I died due to starvation... But now, things have changed. I am being held by something with a holy aura... And there are many beings with holy auras around me... I don't know what is going on... I only feel like I was born... A man with four horns and long emerald-green hair is carrying me.
Emerald-green haired man: "This is my son... What do you want to name him, Kaylessa?"
I am given to a woman on a bed. She is an elf with blonde hair... This is my mother huh?
Kaylessa: "Mithneel... That is going to be his name, Quinn. Mithneel."
My mother hugs me and I see my father. His name is Quinn huh... Also... Why did I retain all my memories and some of the beings in the background are just laughing? My father goes over to them and asks them something and then comes back to me.
Kaylessa: "Is something wrong?"
Quinn: "Well... It seems a foreign soul is in our childs body. I didn't notice it but I guess that is what the gods and goddesses meant by that sentence they said. Your child might be somebody completely different. They played a trick on us... I am too weak of a god to do anything about it though.."
Kaylessa: "Don't worry Quinn... Let's just send him on his way... The Goddess wants it. She wants to personally bring our child to his new world."
They both nod and a being with a strong holy aura comes forward. Am I surrounded by gods and goddesses right now? Am I the son of... A god? Finally! Something good for a change! The goddess my father and mother were probably talking about comes and picks me up. She opens a weird... Gate of some sort. My limited slave knowledge is... Limited... My father follows the goddess and when she carries me I see four other girls who have no sort of holy aura like my mother following us too. I guess they are my fathers mistresses or something? There is too much I don't know yet.

When we exit the gate... Where are we... Where in the name of all the gods I just saw are we... I see three moons hovering above us in the air... They put me down and my father and the girls start crying...
Strong holy-aurad goddess: "Quinn. This is for the best. Don't worry. He won't die. Somebody will come pick him up. There is a village nearby and we put an idea into one of the civilians to come to this specific lake."
Quinn nods and they leave me. They just left a new-born baby... In the grass... In a world with three moons... Near a lake. Did they just give birth to me to kill me!? Ahh... I'm too sleepy... Too sleep- What is that!!!!
A huge wolf just came out of the lake! What the hell is that! No no no! I really am going to die this soon! Oh all the gods who I just saw and all the goddesses save me for the sake of yourselves! The wolf approaches me and I start screaming... Let us hope my screaming saves me! A baby screaming always does something right? It always saves the baby right? I am so dead aren't I... So dead... Wait... Why is the wolf licking my face? Aren't I supposed to die here? Why is the large dangerous looking wolf just playfully licking my face like I am it's master? This is confusing!!! I wish I wasn't reborn into this body! First I was abandoned by my father and mother and all my fathers mistresses and all the gods and goddesses there... Then a wolf starts licking my face... What is... Oh the wolf left. Aww... I just got to know him a little better. Maybe everything in this world will not try to kill me the moment they see me? Let us hope... Let us really hope... Oh no... Something is in the bushes... Is it the villager they were talking about? Please be the villager... I don't want any huge snake who has a taste for new-born babies... And thank god! It is a human-looking being! It's human-looking because it has... Wolf-ears... Why is everything a wolf here? A wolf came out of the lake and now a wolf-human came to pick me up... Ahh no matter. Atleast I am safe for now! I can't bother myself with trying to train so I won't die... I just wanna live my life peacefully and calmly with no responsibilities at all... My slave life did not allow that... Damn aristocratic pig who thought he was better than me and tortured me just for his interest... I'll try not to get involved with any kind of country... I just want to stay out of the way and be on the sides... I want nothing to do with anything... I am carried to a village. The village is guarded by a palisade made out of oak logs. Seems safe right? Well it's really damage on one side so I am not that... Confident... In the abilities of that wall... I am taken to a hut inside the palisade village. The villager puts me on a bed and then another female villager comes in. The one who carried me was a twenty year old and this one who just entered is an... Thirteen year old? A woman and a girl huh.

Girl: "Big Sis! Where did you find that baby from!?"
Woman: "In the forest, near the lake."
Girl: "Why did you go near the lake!? We were told never to go there!"
Woman: "I don't know... My instincts just told me to go there..."
I try to laugh at the sight of the older sister getting scolded by the younger one. I wonder why I can understand them... They speak in a weird language but then the language translates into English like in the kingdom of England I was imprisoned at... Weird.
Girl: "Do you know how many high leveled monsters are near that lake?! What were you thinking big sis!"
I start slowly falling asleep... Baby body is annoying... It has so little stamina... Hahah... They are still... Arguing...
Aaand I fall asleep.

That is what an adventurer does.” ....... **** Thank you for reading, and if you like the story, please rate and review. Isa and I would both like to level up! This story uses the 5th Edition Open Gaming License for game mechanics. I roll dice for combat outcomes and all skill checks.... which is sometimes surprising! One side note - I don't have a "sexual content" tag on - this is more romance than romp. But that might change!

Souls of Savagery
Souls of Savagery is a series of short stories intended to function much like a comic book series. However, to experience the complete story in a logical order you should read the volumes in numerical order, starting of course, with Volume 1: A Bloodbath by Any Other Name. Each volume is told from a single point of view and that will change from volume to volume. Though, the narrative will require later volumes to return to characters that have been featured previously. I hope you enjoy.

Crafter's Passion (AKA Gleaners' Guild)
2038, California. Stan is doing his mandatory "volunteer" service years on a collective farm when he encounters Thousand Tales, a game that offers immortality to the super-rich. He can't afford to have his brain uploaded like those elite customers, but maybe he can turn a profit out of the game instead of just playing it. Not as a legendary swordsman or a brilliant wizard, but as a dealer in the junk no one else seems to want. If he plays his cards right, he can draw the attention of both the farm's supervisor and the game's ruling, meddling AI. Should he, though? LitRPG. Part of the world of "Thousand Tales", a novel series on Amazon, though no knowledge of it is expected. This story is around 12K words long. I'd appreciate feedback to help write a much longer version! Updates every few days. Cover art from game-icons.net, by Lorc, CC-BY. Update! This story was originally called "Gleaners' Guild". It came out on Amazon under the name "Crafter's Passion" and has many reviews there, thanks in part to the support of RR readers like you. Thanks! It even has a sequel, "Crafter's Heart".
