《An Extra-Ordinary Story about Ordinary People》6, Carried

And so, i did a maneuver i had saved for, well, some situation.
Some situation such as this one.
Whatever.
Whether this pather or tiger or whatever ate mushrooms or not, i still didnt want it to, you know, take my arm.
Hand.
Whatever 2.0.
The maneuver in question was a rather simple one.
A, quickly extend my roots, mycelium, whatever 3.0, up to the ground beneath my arm,
B, connect my mycelium to the arm-hand-thing,
C, pump in as much energy into it as i can and hope something happens.
And thats about it, really.
I think i had been subconciously supplying energy to it when it was naturally connected to me, but ever since that girl, boy, whatever 4.0, plucked it from my mycelium, i think its been losing energy since i every now and then move it around.
Im not going to wonder how i can move it, since that doesnt seem plausible in any way, shape or form.
If it can be explained in theory, existing here as practical proof of the theory might, well, compromise my freedom.
Who knows.
Whatever might have caused this situation in the first place is entirely unessesary to my current survival.
Which is why im currently pumping all energy i have in me, sadly making the allied and subservant trees nearby me, well, wither.
But i can feel my arm grow.
What was once simply a hand and a wrist has become and entire arm.
I would love to expand it further, but i really dont think its possible.
I dont have the time to make my arm expand, so im currently just pumping it full with energy to...
something. Whatever 5.0.
I dont really have time to think, considering how this large feline is currently tugging at my arm.

It has yet to tear through my skin, but thats just a matter or time.
I wish...
i wish i could see what the heck is going on.
Right now, all ive got going is the strange sensation of energy flowing through me and to me.
Seeing wouldnt help me too much, but it really would be nice.
Seeing.
Havent done that in a while.
Soon enough, ive barely got enough energy left in me to think, and so, i let go of the arm.
The large cats falls backwards, not much unlike the girl who had done so before, and i feel my arm dangeling freely in the air.
The cat doesnt seem to want to hurt me, i think.
Its grasping my arm quite gently.
Im not sure whether i should move around or remain still.
Well, i guess ill just let it be.
This cat seems to be headed somewhere, so ill just wait until then.
But ill have to say...
this is rather nice.
Moving about.
The warmth in her breath.
Reminds me of something.
Feels sort of, well, nostalgic.
Its nice, anyways.
She sways from side to side, her heavy body swinging me along.
Her gentle maw keeping me secure.
Where is she taking me?
Do i care?
Eventually, she stops.
She releases her grip on me and i fall a few centimetres and hit the ground lightly.
Its cold and damp and hard.
A cave?
Yes, that must be it.
So im in the lair or the lioness, then?
Neat.
Ive got enough energy to maneuver this arm for, well, a long time.
...
Nothing happens.
On this bone-chilling, dead rock, i feel nothing.
No tremors, no movements, no anything.
Did she leave?
Was she ever there at all?
I feel a sand-paper like tounge run over the back of my hand and i feel a pang of joy spread.

Im not alone.
Thank god.
I try to move my hand a bit and soon find it resting on the muzzle of some great furry beast.
Its vibrating.
If i had an ear or two, im sure i would hear the gentle, calming purr of a kitten.
But as it is, all i feel is that vibrating.
Which isnt all that bad.
The muzzle is soft and warm and the little nose is wet and cold.
I move my hand a bit higher and feel the cheek of the beast.
Its soft.
Oh, so soft.
I scarch a little, pet a little, caress a little, and i am happy.
Oh, so happy.
The warmth of another is, and will always be one of the most comfortable feeling, whether it be human or other.
In this case, a very friendly, very large cat.
I wish i could hear it.
That soft purring.
I really wish i did.
And i do.

8 1011The False Summoned
The Summoned were called from another world to save them all. Wielding significant power because of their access to 'The Interface', they acted as beacons of hope for humanity. Or that's how it was supposed to be. But not everyone thinks they're doing a good job. Lane had a dream since he was young—to stand on the same level as the Summoned—and he finally found a chance to seize it. But things didn't go exactly as planned.

They soon uncover that they have found themselves in Nifflheim, a place where many go to face the crimes of their past lives. Refusing to take their eternal punishment lying down, the party begins searching for the three keys that are said to open the gates of Nifflheim and allow them into Valhalla. Will they make it out before they join the corpses around them? Or does the party have secrets that could lead to their downfall?
8 123Luck And Chronomancy
Time Magic is the best magic as everyone knows, although there are lots of unique Talents in the world. Most people only remember Haste because it is hard to get to higher Phases of Chronomancy. That is still enough to make the Talent iconic. A lucky enough Aleatory Talent can position you for greatness or leave you languishing in obscurity. The only true equality in the world is when that glowing message pops up at 8 years old. Even if it doesn't activate until you are an adult at 16 you still know. Sure you can find a new dungeon spawn and get another chance at a rare Talent, even this one, but you have to already be ready to delve into the *Far Wilds*, which is far easier with wealth or family power. This is the story of where my good fortune took me and the difference it made, even among a party of 7 others including an Arcanist. It is a journey of magic and monsters but also math, which some think is actually worse. Luckily I was born with Intelligence and Focus as my personal traits, and my parents were scholars. Of course Chronomancy can also be a frontline combat talent. Versitility well beyond other Elder Talents like Gravity, Abstraction, or Arcana. Might could have worked for me, too. I also met a runaway princess. All the best adventures have a princess. She hated being a noble and we didn't get married but it still counts. Besides she really filled out our front line. All that Leadership training came in handy. I still don't know where she's from. Who cares? How well Haste goes with giant hammers is what's important. I never learned much about anyone in the party, except the one I grew up with. I'm not a people person. I just wanted to optimize dungeon clearing time. *******Story Details******* No romance, politics, or traumatizing content, slice of life, or even dialogue. 1st person narration, like a guide/adventure log. 2000-7000 words a day, maybe 40-60% rpgish combat log with some reasoning on combat decisions, with the rest character Talent discussion and progression stuff. 8 person party with a decent variety in roles. Party members usually have 2 primary functions. Told from the support/control Chronomancer's perspective. Each party member will have 6 Basic/Background Traits, then 3 actual Talents with abilities. Capstone from their Educational Institution, Arbritrary as a gift from the temples, and Aleatory which is decided at birth, revealed at 8, and activated after adulthood at 16. Aleatory Traits ignore requirements and are random why is why they are so important. They'll gain new Talents from finding Dungeons to consume in the *Wilds*. Mature dungeons in cities can provide *Challenges* to raise the Phase of a Talent, up to 3 times from 1 to 4. Each character will get to roughly 8 non-Trait Talents. Attributes come exclusive from Talents, are required by Talents, and provide various effects as well. I designed about 220 Talents with abilities, 4 in each of 4 phases. "Traits" are just Attribute stuff. I'm not sure how many will be detailed in the story, more than 100 for sure. I used Talents because I want to be free of the legacy of tabletop. Half those rules are just because of the limitations inherent in a pre-computer ttrpg. This story mostly uses combat Talents, although like 1/3 of the 220 are for crafting and other society and economy stuff. If you really wanted to be a Thief you might take Intuition, Awarness, and Might for Basic Traits and Deftness, Manipulation, and Trickery for Family/Education. Then you'd pick Acrobatics, and Climbing for Educational Capstone and Arbitrary traits. You Aleatory Trait might be Shadow(Light/Dark) Magic, Umbramancy. A Bard might swap Dexterity for Charisma, Music for Acrobatics, and have gotten Illusion(Shadow/Sound(Air/Force)) for their Aleatory Trait.
