《The Two Stories of Frontier Online: A Tale of A Boy and A Beast (Dropped)》Prologue: Meeting the Two Brothers
Advertisement
Shuu's POV:
"Jun wake up, wake up. Frontier Online starts soon, we don't want to miss it like we did at the Beta Testing." I exclaimed, bursting into my twin brother's bedroom. Jun grumbled and pulled the sheets over his head to block out the sound, but I grabbed the blankets and swiped them from the bed.
"No sleeping, come on, Its about to start, I wonder what the Beta Testers set up for us" I spoke with anticipation. Let me explain, The game Frontier Online was a game made from the players, by the players, for the players. It allowed anyone to do anything, If you wanted to build a kingdom, then you would gather loyal subjects, create NPCs, Create and support Towns and cities, Maybe even find a religion if you want. If you wanted to be a daring dungeon creator, you would buy the land, excavate and build the floors, and spawn in monsters as well as drops. But the things I wanted to do the most was create my own type of [Unique Monster]. In Frontier Online, you could choose between the [Kingdom]- The races of Human, Elf, Beastmen, Dwarves, etc, or choose to be a [Beast of the Wild] Basically any and every type of monster that was not supported by the kingdom, (Thieves, Thugs, Bandits, Rouge Beastmen, etc are classified as [Beasts of the Wild, as they do not follow the [Kingdom]. [Beasts of the Wild] allowed you to create your own Mob, even have named bosses for other players to fight. For a [Kingdom] Player, they had to fight these [Beasts of the Wild] for drops and gold that the beast had on them to gain fame, and money for better items. For [Beasts of the Wild] Players, they had to defeat a Player, reguardless of which Faction they chose, and take their items/drops, to convert into points to grow themselves. If the [Beasts of the Wild] Player defeated many adversaries then they have the chance to evolve themselves into a more dangerous beast.

(Short explanation: Beasts- defeat things to evolve/change into a better beast.)
Jun finally stirred in my monologue and he socked me right in the face.
"You talk way to much, let me get some sleep, It starts at 12:00 Noon, It's 9 in the morning, let me sleep for a couple more hours" Jun grumbled and turned over once more.
"I can't let you do that, we need to review over the strategy guides that a Beta Tester friend of ours gave us, how can we slack when we can learn where to go and what to do" I begged Jun with puppy dog eyes.
"Good grief, you think that trick is gonna work on me, You usually play around, but for once your serious, but I made up my mind, I will wake up later, so don't bother me" Jun growled and he proceeded to kick me from the room.
I was downtrodden by Jun's neglect at the game, but I knew he was just as hyped. I sat down and looked over the guides that our Beta Tester friend left us. Opening up the book titled [Guides of the Two Sides: An up-to-date guide to [Kingdom] and [Beasts of the Wild]], I flipped through the book to the second part of the guide.
I proceeded to read the rest of the guide, getting absorbed by their words.
Jun's POV:
That bastard Shuu, trying to make me wake up early, Even if Frontier Online was being released to the general public, I am still not the person who wakes up early in the mornings. I looked at the time which was nearing 11:15. I finally pushed myself out of bed and looked at the guide that [Pierno], the Beta Tester who put this together, got for me. "Hmm, everyone starts as a novice, and to learn skills they would have to either discover the knowledge themselves or find someone who knows of the knowledge in real life, what a load of crap this is, skills will be impossible to learn" I muttered angrily but then I thought, / If the Beta Testers have been there for a month already, then they should have set the baseline for skills that each basic class can learn, deviant/variant spells, skills, and classes can be found out as well./

I then gave a laugh, "Ha ha ah, Since its a Frontier, we all have to learn new things once in a while. Maybe I can create the ultimate Berserker class or skill. That would be nice, without a plan, then playing is meaning less." I said to myself and then the clock struck 12:00, I practically bolted to my Virtual Machine to hook myself in.
"Alright, Settings check, game check, Character creation, hmm, Command : Set Name to: [Gren], Command: Race: [Human], Command: Display [Kingdom Map]" I say in quick succession.
"Map of the [Kingdom] will now be displayed, Select which Kingdom you would like to go to: Coast Empire Seshalis, The Forest Tribes of Oakwood, the Kingdom of the Middle Plains, the Underground Villages." a female computer voice spoke to me.
"Command: Start Location: Kingdom of the Middle Plains"
"Starting location will be in the Kingdom of the Middle Plains, Select the starting village:
Janu- Surrounded by tall grass, Easy to get lost in the grass, sometimes refered to as, the village in the Wheat Labyrinth.
Ocypetes- Large farmlands, main trading complex, From time to time it is targeted by plunderers.
Higal- Despite being in the plains, Higal houses a forest that is very mysterious, Rumor has it that there are treasures deep in this forest."
"Command: Set Village: Higal" I commanded with excitement, Treasures, that could start me off pretty well" I smiled to myself and I got transported into the game.
