《Legends of Etheria》Chapter 3 - This chapter is about apples
Advertisement
I'm hungry, I'm thirsty and I am bored...we've been roaming the forest for a while now. Since Tutorial town had a large number of players lining up for it, Bob and I decided to go look around the forest but little did I know that in this game you could get hungry and thirsty. Ugh...
"Bob, you could've told me earlier that we get hungry in this game..."
"Sorry dude, it slipped my mind, hehe."
"Well what're we gonna do now, you tell me Mr 'Slipped my mind'?"
Ray sighed and stopped walking, he moved over to a nearby tree and leaned against it. Taking a short rest. "If only food could drop from the sk-"
Bonk. Plop. Ouch. Something fell and hit Ray on the head, causing him to jerk forward instinctively. "The hell! What hit me!?"
Bob moved forward and picked up the fallen object, an apple. "Your prayer has been answered it seems, it's an apple tree."
"..."
"..."
"Heh."
"Hehe."
After a brief chuckle with each other, Ray and Bob moved to grab as many apples as possible to eat and after gathering a large handful of them, a ding sound was heard followed by a light blue sparkle surrounding his body. Skill up: Movement Lvl 2 Skill gained: Stamina Lvl 1 Strength Lvl 1
In an instant Ray felt the fatigue from climbing dissipate, his arms and legs became less heavy and even though he was holding a large amount of apples, they felt lighter than before. "Cool, new skills and an upgrade. Although...they are very generic sounding."
"Chomp chomp. Didja say something?"
"Nah, it's nothing. Let's eat."
...
This taste...it's not just an ordinary apple...it's the tastiest apple I've ever eaten! The rich flavour, the sound it makes when you bite into it and the juiciness, oh god. How does a game simulate such a taste is beyond me but I must have more...MORE.

Status effect gained: Apple Addiction. (For eating enchanted apples of the forest, the player will have an intense craving for apples for the rest of his life.)
As the two continued eating, they felt themselves getting into a state similar to being drunk. Their sight and mind blurred and they were soon mindless eating machines who passed out soon after eating close to 30 apples. An impressive feat were it not in a game.
But whilst they slept, a stranger approached, a little girl in all aspects but inside a power overwhelming...
"...Sleepy people!"
But mostly a little girl.

Knight and Smith
Secrets once thought lost are coming to light... Orin, a young thief turned mercenary, is returning to his home for the first time in four years. Orin wants nothing more than to reconnect with his family and settle down in the city he loves, but fate is fickle and has another destiny in mind for the swordsman. Now bound to the Princess of the Realm in ways he doesn't fully understand, Orin finds himself thrust into the world of Nobility, where no one can be truly trusted and his friends are few and far between. To ensure his survival, and that of the entire Kingdom, Orin must learn to harness the power of a Knight and work with the Princess Elora to protect those they both love, all while dealing with psychotic Knights, a mad King and Elora's own protectors. Well, if nothing else, I'm sure it will be an adventure. This is one of the ideas I've been working on for a while and wanted to see how far I can go with it. There's nothing really original here, just something fun I wanted to explore a bit more. Chapters will be posted once a week on Sundays at five pm GMT. Thank you for reading and I hope that you enjoy Knight and Smith!

Wanderlust
After having been given a prophecy at the Imperial Palace in New Tokyo, Sumire decides she's going to do some soul searching on an adventure to fulfill it. Nobody knows where it'll lead to, least of all the people involved. Wanderlust is a fantasy, action / adventure through California after a nearly apocalyptical event shatters the United States into the Divided Territories of America. The new wild west has started filled with guns, mist, swords, armor, and of course magic spellslingers. It has multiple points of view, mainly following two women in a story of connection, revenge, and focuses heavily on character development. I hope you enjoy. - - - A note on tags: as of writing there is currently no sexual content, but that will change later as the story progresses.

Necromage
Dan is your average worker who managed to get his hands on the a VR helmet for the newest game, Eternium. He finds himself in way over his head as everything is deadly down to the smallest Rabbit. Join Dan in his adventures through this fantasy world! This is an offshoot to my other series, Bunnymancer. This story will focus on what if Dan went down a different path and became a Necromancer instead of a Bunnymancer. The story will be a little darker and the first six chapters will be the same. Past that though we will get into a new plotline, though if you've already read through bunnymancer I would suggest starting at chapter 7 when reading through this. This is a book within the Completionist Chronicles Universe. I was given permission to make this as long as I did not publish it as an official Mountain Dale Press work or sell it for money.
