《Lasted • Tuck Everlasting》The Epilogue (also A/N)
Advertisement
"Maisy! Come here, sweet!" Charlie yelled from their farmhouse as a young girl ran up to her, excitedly holding flowers in her hands. The young girl looked different from Miles and Charlie, but she blended into their family nicely. A perfect little girl for a crazy family.
The girl who was on the verge of turning 5 ran up to her mother, excited to tell her about her adventures. "Mama, I saw a butterfly! It was orange and it landed on my hand." The small child explained as she pointed at where the butterfly had landed. "It's my friend now."
Charlie laughed as she picked the girl up into her arms, bringing her into the house for dinner. "That is so interesting! I think Uncle Jesse would love to hear all about it." Maisy grinned happily as she wiggled out of her mom's arms and ran to sit with her uncle on the couch, his senior dog sitting in his lap happily.
Laughter rang throughout the room as Maisy began to climb all over her uncle, who only tried to wrestle with her by tickling her. "Maisy Winifred Tuck, stop fighting Jesse! He's old enough as is!" Charlotte instructed as Miles entered the room with dinner ready. Cooked Salmon. A family favorite.
"Oh, let her be. She's just having fun." Miles laughed as he kissed his wife's cheek.
Charlie laughed and crossed her arms to look at her soulmate. "I'd prefer it if she bit her old man instead of our company." The couple glared at each other jokingly as Miles declared that dinner was ready. Mae and Angus happily sat at the table, the grey hair taken over their heads to the point where Charlie sometimes doesn't recognize them. Jesse smiled happily as he stuffed fish into his mouth. Miles ruffled his daughter's hair as everyone talked happily to each other, leaving Charlie to admire the picture. This was her ideal life. It was messy and full of flaws and secrets, but still perfect. If she could go back and change it all, would she? Absolutely not.

She knew that people went into the world known as New Eden because they volunteered. She also knew that rarely other people were forcefully drawn in; these were referred to as the chosen. Heather didn’t pay much attention to it all. For most of the world, things went on like they always had. She had classes to attend and boys to tease, and her cell phone was her world.

Getting Hard (Journey of a Tank)
Herald Stone always built tank characters in every MMORPG he played. To be immortal—that was his first Goal, a simple childhood dream. However, the turbulent realities of life put an end to his gaming days. Years passed, and Herald Stone, now having attained success and stability, was presented with the opportunity to redeem himself...to fulfill his first Goal. Trivial? Childish? Others might think so. But Herald Stone always fulfilled his Goals—every single one. No matter what. Immortality beckoned in Mother Core Online, and this time Herald Stone would answer. Choosing a long-forgotten race, hidden away in an unknown region, the journey of an immortal tank begins. This is the tale of Herald Stone...getting hard. Schedule: Mon-Wed-Fri ~1.8k-2.3k words per chapter. Also published on Scribblehub. My other ongoing story: REND | Royal Road Expect a focus on building a true tank in MMORPGs. Heavy game elements and numbers are present. But actual math will take a backseat to strategies involving skill builds and synergies that steadily become more complex while remaining understandable. The main character is atypical in LitRPGs or web novels as a whole. He might take some getting used to. Character arcs will develop over a long period. What you see now will be different as the main character changes. The start of Getting Hard is slow-paced (more so than others of the genre) and includes world-building and character development before focusing on the LitRPG.
