《Kingdom of Earthos》Interlude 5: Tomi’s last meeting with Mads.
Advertisement
Riding her cyan eagle to the School of Paradeisos’ northern branch, Tomi was shocked to see so many dead bodies on the ground. She commanded her eagle to land and saw a dying Mads with her six year old daughter hugging her while weeping. “Mom, please don’t die”.
“It is alright darling, Tomi will look after you from now on”. Mads comforted her daughter before turning to Tomi she said, “Please treat my daughter as your own. Ensure that she is well looked after. Thank you for being my best friend. Tell Eagle I said hi and please warn him that his former flat mate Ann is out to get him and has become the bride of Black Thanatos”.
“I will not fail you. I will take care of your daughter”. That was all Tomi could speak while weeping. Her tears fell on Mads’ face as the brunette was lying on her lap.
“It looks like I am soaked in tears of both my best friend and daughter. I am glad we are still best friends till the end. I never regretted meeting you although we both did stupid things together”. Mads laughed.
“You always had a good sense of humour and are one of the most forgiving person, I have met”. Tomi complimented while taking out a tissue paper wiping blood off Mad’s lips which she had coughed out after Ann had stabbed her in the chest.
“I will be going to a better place soon. Don’t forget t”. Mads said. “I will see you there soon. As for you Marrisa, make Tomi’s life easy as she will be looking out for you from today onwards”.The petite brunette finally breathed her last.
“Rest in peace my best friend. I will take care of your daughter”. Tomi planted a kiss on the now dead Mad’s forehead before laying her on the floor. She took Birdy out of the hall before commanding her giant cyan eagle to burn up the dead bodies including the dead body of Mads which she dragged out into the backyard with the help of Marrisa.

Taking Mad’s six year old daughter with her on the cyan eagle, Tomi brought the little girl back to the School of Paradeisos’ main branch and into the unit which she shares with Eagle.
“I am back for my ride. Mads is dead and this is the last of her”. Tomi introduced Marrisa to Eagle and their daughter, Bondi. When her husband and her finally finished moaning the next day, she told him, “Mads also told me to inform you that your daughter Birdy has called her up to say hi and to watch out for Ann. She has reached a new level of evil and has become the bride of Black Thanatos”.
Tomi would join Eagle in the backyard while he was training Nathan, Norman’s older twin boy to command his eagle as well as sword fighting. While doing so, she kept an eye on Bondi and Marrisa who had become best friends and treated each other as if they were sisters.
Seeing the two girls play together brought up Tomi’s memories of the time she met Mads who had been her best friend since primary school. They both had been the most popular girls in Middle School and all the way up to the ballroom dance which Mads was the organiser and Tomi was the dancer. The memory of the stupid things they both did together would never be forgotten as well and this brought both laughter and tears to the blonde.
Never did Tomi knew she would be married to someone she actually once considered a loser and no hoper. It seems that she grew out of her like for guys like Jake and Edward after eighteen years of age.
Eagle came up to Tomi during break time from training to ask her what was going on. “I am just missing Mads and every time I see our daughters playing together, the memory of her will always be alive”.

“Believe me, Mads has always been a likeable person. Sometimes, she might be a tease but she is overall a fun person”. Eagle placed his right arm around Tomi’s neck while placing his right hand on her right shoulder. “We will never forget her. May we meet her again”.
“We certainly will”, Tomi replied as she rested her head on her husband’s right shoulder.
Nathan in the meantime played with the two girls saying, “Catch me if you can girls”. These words were enough to provoke Bondi and Marrisa to gang up on the older son of Norman.
“Norman, it is time for dinner now”. Mona who had come out from her home which was still in the main branch of the School of Paradeisos to the backyard to call her son.
“Eagle and Tomi. You and your two daughters are of course welcome to join us for dinner that is if you choose to accept this invitation”. Mona turned to Tomi and her husband.
“Of course we would like to. Wouldn’t we Eagle?”
“I don’t see why not. It is good to have friends and company”.
“By the way, Mona, Marrisa is the daughter of Mads and she is all that is left of her”. Tomi spoke up.
“I know. My husband has also been killed by Ann, a year earlier. I heard it on news that a dark entity had attack the School of Paradeisos’ northern branch”. Mona led the way to her home.
“At least they are in a better place and we will meet them again one day”, Tomi replied to Mona who was talking to both her and Eagle.
“We will indeed. Let’s enjoy our dinner as none of them would want us to moan for them for too long as they are already in a better place. Your husband has now become the leader of the Eagle riders in place of my husband and you being on married to him means you are going to lead alongside him. All the best to you both and I will always be here if any help is needed”.

The story of how a Cultivation Universe was Conquered by an Interstellar Weapons Platform
What do you get when you cross a world of Magic, Cultivation and Legends with one of Science, Logic and Overwhelming Firepower?\o\ Chaos! /o/Alpha is a sapient AI who's job (and Passion) is the exploration, exploitation and eventual colonization of new worlds for the Federation, a Galaxy spanning empire of Science and Technology. When an unexpected accident deposits this literal War Machine on a planet full of Cultivators and Wizards, chaos and insanity ensues. What Alpha and those around him don't know, however, is that he will soon become the focal point of a millennias long plot that holds not only the fate of the world in its balance, but possibly the entire Galaxy.Ancient Enemies awaken as the Powerhouses of the world converge with Alpha at the center. Get ready, its going to be a wild ride. ------------------------------------------------------- |_+) Come, Read the Story. Watch Worlds be Conquered. (ALL HAIL YOUR NEW ROBOT OVERLORDS!) See Arrogant Young Masters be slapped in the face (by a 170mm Rail-slug traveling Mach 3). Find Grand, Valuable Treasure (which gets put into storage, because what use does an AI have with pill herbs?) Explore Strange and wonderful lands (that will be shortly stripped mined and exploited for all usable resources) |_+) JOIN US!______________________________________ ALPHA-555-12-4412 (Designation: Star Conquer).One of the 5 most powerful and advanced AI-driven Interstellar Weapon Platforms ever built, was programmed with a very simple mission. Travel the stars.Seek out new and hospitable Alien Worlds.Establish a Forward based for their Master's eventual colonization.And, If necessary, crush any and all native resistance it might find. It was a Mission that Alpha took seriously and dedicated its entire being to.However, when Alpha flies a liiiiitle to close to a Blackhole and gets sucked in, it is thrown into a situation that no amount of programming could prepare it for. Now stranded on an alien, yet familiar world, full of dangerous beasts and strange phenomenon its database has no record or explanation for, Alpha must find a way to not only survive, but thrive.And eventually to do what he was built to do. Conquer._____________________________________________________Some things to expect from this Story 1): MC is an AI programmed with a very specific goal. Thus don't expect him to think or act like a human might. That being said, he/it is not bloodthirsty and evil either. He is specifically programed to work with, and indoctrinate Native species when possible. He is not a demon lord come to end the world as they know it, but a Conqueror come to subjugate. 2): MC won't be getting some kind of Humanoid form or suddenly start trying to think like a Human. Although an AI, he is perfectly Sapient, and fully understands both what he is and what is mission is. He is capable of adapting and changing his thought process, but at the end of the day, the Mission is what matters to him. He doesn't see the need or even WANTS to be Human. The only exception to this might be Humanoid body doubles or puppets used in places his main body isn't able to go. 3): This story is a mix of both Sci-Fi and Cultivation novels. MC with NOT be able to Cultivate themselves (for obvious reasons), but using his technology and knowledge, will be able to adapt and repurpose the strange and exotic resources you might find in a Cultivation World to increase his power and keep up with the powerhouses of this Universe. 4): The Intention of this story is to alternate between it and Parasite King, so I don't get burned out writing either one. As such, updates, while not slow, won't be to quick. Bare with me for awhile till the wheels get rolling.

Alviona (undergoing Rewrite).
This fiction is going to undergo severe Editing and a Rewrite over next few months. Here is what it hopes to accomplish: 1) Fix the glaring issues from Style in every chapter 1-31 (Dialogues, POV switches and Head-hopping too much) 2) Add some new chapters in and justify the development between Sofia and Anita 3) Remove the info dumps and make it more organic 4) Finalize the genres that this fiction belongs to 5) Create warning in the synopsis relating to the contents of the fiction. 6) Overhaul and show what Mira's view on Alviona is (slowly) 7) Introduce new characters 8) Show chapters the way they were intended, as clues apparently were not visible at all! 9) Make Alviona a bit more serious. 10) Make me (Author) enjoy reading my own work more (yes! :)) Hi. I have been gone for quite a long while. With heart surgery and such that has happened two months ago, I had not had a chance to log on RR due to being hospitalized. I had some other issues that the admins were kind enough to deal with on this fiction. It's good to see everything in one piece. The synopsis has been removed. Chapter 1 should be coming out sometimes before christmas. A lot has changed. I hope for the better. Instead of edits, I have re-read every single chapter and found it to be unsatisfying. A lot did not make sense and unless you have previously speculated what Alviona is, many things she does won't fall into pieces. Well then, time to address all of this. Ladies and gentlelmen, this fiction is undergoing a full scale re-write. While the characters and developments stay the same, it's being done differently. So much that the world should feel darker as it should have been. For those who have stuck around and know the story: Awesome. I worked hard on this, and hope that you will like my re-write. For thos that are new: Welcome. Give me some time, as I am super sluggish. I don't know much time is some time, but I gurantee chapter 1 will be up before Christmas. This said, again, thank you and know that I am back. And that this fiction will be completed. AT ANY COST. I will update synopsis after I post chapter 1. I might post Alviona (revised, as this current one is far too.... simplified, watered down, and dissapointing version of it) seperately. Those that want this, here. But I don't want to add chapter 40. It won't make sense without the backup and world-building of re-write. It will piss myself off. Now then, let's write hm? *This beautiful piece of art is provided by Charee from DeviantArt* https://www.deviantart.com/chalii
