《The New World Rising : How to Build a Dungeon Kingdom》Chapter 1 - The First Prey
Advertisement
The first thing I ever felt was hunger. I got up on my feet and started to prowl under the shadow of evergreen trees for food. My pursuit of finding something to eat luckily shortly resulted in success. I saw a hare in a small bush 50 meters in front of me. I did not have any skills yet, but my luck was immeasurable due to the full moon. Jumping on the bush without a second of hesitation, I caught the hare from its ears. I killed my first prey with an instinct of survival.

*Skill “Hunting I” earned
*10 Spirit Coins (SP) earned
The sentences crossed my mind as if announcements were made just because of my actions. I understood all of them except for the last one.
“10 Spirit Coins (SP) earned”
What did this mean? I tried to imagine the topology of whatever this “spirit coin” was. Just when my head started to ache a little, a list appeared before my big shiny eyes.

Leather stripes x5 – 5 SP

Flintstone. That was what I needed for the hare. I figured out that this was a purchasing system, but I did not know how to purchase that which I need to. Maybe if I imagined buying it… I decided to give it a shot.
A small flint stone appeared above the palm of my left hand. I grabbed it and sat on the first rock before me. I gathered some sticks from the ground and made a fire. I ripped the skin of the hare I caught with my bare hands and started to heat the meat.

*Title “Survivor” earned
*25 SP earned
I ate the hare with a great joy. It was not tasty but I did not care about its taste as I devoured the meat. Honestly, I was starving.
I wanted to use the skin of the hare but it was perished. I finished my food and got on my feet to find a place to spend the night. I was desperate to find a place to sleep safely. I found an open field enclosed with different types of trees and a river. I concluded that this would be a good place to settle.
It was darkening and sun was about to disappear from the sky very soon. I did not know of any creatures dwelling on the ground in this planet anew to him. I decided to climb up a tree and spend the night on a branch. I looked around and found a strong enough branch to spend my night on.

To The Far Shore
Post apocalyptic Oregon Trail. The apocalypse has come and gone. And come back again, and left again... nobody really knows how often. Nothing lasts forever, but nothing is ever completely gone. Which is a shame for young Mazelton, as his family has been around a terribly long time, and made an astonishing amount of enemies. Millenia's worth. So he has to run- from mobs, cannibals, soldiers, sailors, cholera, cattle, thieving sales-monks, starvation, mechanical horrors, vengeful spirits, negotiating your own marriage, and poison of every sort. Fortunately, his not terribly nice family has trained him well in the arts of core polishing. Or as you and I might know it- turning radioactive pellets into useful tools. And weapons. Updates Monday-Wednesday-Friday. Usual defensive tags applied. The goal isn't exactly family friendly, but you have probably seen worse on network TV. After the watershed. Not full blown HBO, let's say. This is the first novel I am sharing publicly, so feedback is very much appreciated and encouraged. Act 1 of the novel is completed, but do please let me know what works, what doesn't, and what you would like to see more of. Thank you, and Enjoy!
