As Fayre was in the lab working with the Angelic Artifact that Angelisa had confirmed for the woman, Poppy found herself standing on the opposite side of the observational window, watching as the woman began to work on the artifact. She didn't know what it was that was going on and Fayre was heavily focused on what it was that she was doing. Poppy couldn't blame her as she watched her as she was busy working on looking over the artifact in front of her and Poppy shook her head as she watched her.
As she stood on the other side of the window, there were a few seconds that went by as she stared into the room, before she was joined by another figure. Poppy glanced over her shoulder and watched as Carol made her way over toward her. The blonde-haired woman made her way over toward her with more human-like clothing on her back and a small smile on her face as she stared at her. The two of them stared at each other for a few seconds, before the blonde-haired woman stood beside her as they stared into the laboratory as Fayre was busy at work.
Fayre was bent over the worktable and Poppy had her arms folded over her chest as she inhaled deeply, before letting out a heavy sigh. Carol reach over to her and rested a hand on her arm. Poppy lifted a hand and placed it over her own as she brushed her thumb against the back of her hand. The two of them stood in front of the window as they watched the other woman carefully, making sure that nothing went wrong with her as she stood on the other side of the window and Poppy pressed her lips together nervously.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Carol glanced over to the woman as she stood beside her and she inhaled deeply, before letting out a heavy sigh, "Is everything okay? How is Fayre doing?" Carol questioned her as she stared at the woman in front of her before she turned her attention back into the room.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "She seems fine . . . but I'm just worried that the artifact is going to harm her in one way or another," Poppy replied to her as she stared at the woman in the lab before she glanced over to the woman that stood beside her and she pressed her lips together. The dark-haired woman turned to face her, and she shook her head. "I just don't want anything bad to happen to her, you know? She's my friend and I was the one that had signed off on the mission that had brought this artifact back."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "She was the one that wanted you to find something to help reverse the immortality that she has. Whatever happens, isn't your fault," Carol explained to her, and Poppy shook her head as she stared at her.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "NO, it is," Poppy answered her as she stared at the woman in front of her. "It is my fault. Maybe not directly, but it is. I was the one that had them bring the artifact here and I was the one that sent for Angelisa to come here and give us the green light for her to look at the artifact. It would be my fault if something was to happen to her."
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Carol took a step closer to the woman and she rested a hand on her cheek and she brushed her thumb against her cheekbone for a few seconds, before shaking her head, "Poppy, none of this would be your fault, alright?"
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I can't have that on my conscience, Carol," Poppy replied to her and the two of them stood there for a few moments before they turned back to the window to look into the lab that Fayre was in.
They both continued to watch as Fayre was busy at work as she scraped the dirt and mud off of the artifact, but as the woman was working on the artifact, Fayre collapsed to the ground. Poppy was quick to rush into the room and she made her way over toward Fayre and she fell to her knees. She caressed her face in her hands for a few seconds and she stared down at her face as she stared at her and she shook her head as she stared down at her. Poppy slapped her cheek as she attempted to wake her up, but nothing was going through.

Carol rushed into the room behind her and made her way over to her as she stared at the woman in front of her and she made her way over to the two women. The blonde-haired woman stared at her for a few seconds and Poppy glanced up at Carol for a few seconds, before she looked back down to Fayre. That was when she watched a grey streak of hair appear in Fayre's hairline and she furrowed her brows in confusion.
She didn't know what it was that was going on with Fayre and she reached for the grey strand of hair and she ran it through her fingers. She didn't know what it was that had caused the grey strand of hair, but she knew that they were going to find out as soon as Fayre was going to wake up.
They just had to find out what it was that had triggered Fayre collapsing to the floor. Poppy knew that it had something to do with the artifact that Angelisa had given to her and that they were going to have to do more tests with it. But even as they got Fayre out of the lab and took her to a safer and more comfortable place, Poppy couldn't help but want to do tests on her and to see what it was that had caused the grey strand of hair on her head.
She could only hope that Fayre had gotten the answers that she was looking for.

Heart of the World (LitRPG)
This is the story of how I stabbed a bear. Well... technically speaking, that became the moment my life went into a vastly different direction, all on my way to 'The Mission'. The one I had been given alongside two other seasoned players. To help people in a world with a world. But, oh hoh, that bear... Don't get me started on that. So, apart from that, here is the gist of the other part. I'm a year long employee. Though, several years before I became an employee of theirs, this crazy ensuing madness of a Full Dive battle royale between even more companies started to boil over to a breaking point. Mine thought to search for something that would truly blow the competition out of the water. Well, they found it. Deep under the sea actually. They called it a game changer. Rumors abounded of course. But the most common knowledge became that it was a power source unlike the world had ever seen. However, I can tell you now, the unknown sometimes bump back. Especially when experimenting on highly unknown elements. Still, years safely went by and thus I became a developer there. Now, what does any of this got to do with stabbing a bear? Well, ask them that! They started it all. I'm new remember! Though, chaos ensued, and well, I was there. It probably helped that I had proven myself a good fighter in game and that I had some knowledge that could help with the triplets. Oh, but my sister would box my ears if she ever realized how little time I spent learning what the other developers created in the game before I had to go in there on, 'The Mission.' So, this is a story of a mission to save the people in Realm of Ancients. Not those rookies! Oh no, that was just a precurser. AND THERE WAS THE BEAR! Sorry, I had trouble getting over it. But that specific moment changed things. -- -- Hi! This is a project I have started for the fun. This is not your typical comedy. Yes, I added quite a bit humour to the story, BUT as things go into the eye of the storm the character will face challenges that hits him down. So it is not comedy in every chapter. But what do they say, when you've hit bottom, only way to go is up! :D I am always open to suggestions that might take the story to new heights, so you all are welcome to discuss the story in the comments. Just remember the all important SPOILER tags. ;) -Omri - I'd truly appreciate if you rate the story and leave reviews as we go. ;)
