《Mianite Season 1》Ruins

??? POV:
...
...
...
Chaos...
That's the one word that can describe this dark place...
Chaos...
Or maybe darkness...
Sorrow....
Destruction...
Carnage...
That's a good one...
I like it...
Carnage....
That was the word to describe the dark ruins I found myself wandering... the remains of my home....
The once grand and elegant stone pillars that formed a wall around the centrepiece were now scattered across the ruins like pieces of a puzzle. The remains of the pyramid in the centre, could make a sandcastle...pieces of sandstone lay in a pile of rubble in the middle of a deep pit, that smelled of dust and death... the people that lived here... all of them..... gone.....
Who could've done this?.....
Someone as powerful as me perhaps?...
My blue glow made an unearthly sorrowful glow that cast upon the rocks and slabs of stone scattered across the ruins, like tombstones they stood silent, unmoving, as if the people no doubt crushed beneath them were dead long ago...
I had to know who did this...
I created a blue orb in my hand, and whispered to it a language passed down in generations, that few knew of. An image appeared in the orb, and I watched sorrowfully as my home got destroyed all over again. At the centre of the destruction, laughing like children, were four floating boys, that cast powers from their hands and body, destroying all they touched. They seemed happy to finally get to use their powers, as if they'd never used them before.
The first was wearing a grey cloak, and cast red magic from his hands. His face covered by a hood, I couldn't see the face behind the destruction.
The second looked like a fiery demon, and was covered in a flaming substance. He cast an orange magic from his hands.

The third was dressed in a blue flowing cloak, and had piercing blue eyes. He cast blue magic from his hands.
The fourth looked the most human out of them all, and wore a green shirt with metal armour in some places. His eyes were covered by a metal bird mask, with red lenses. His hair was a chocolate brown, but even he cast magic of all colours from his hands.
I saw someone approach the boys, and gasped as my own son got on his hands and knees and begged for them to stop. My dear son, Farian(pronounced Fair-ee-an), protecting his home with his own life. The fiery one laughed and threw a blazing fireball his way, and the blue cloaked one sent a boulder crashing down from above him. I looked away, tears in my eyes, but I still heard his screams, and the loud thud of the magic hitting him. I immediately dropped the orb, hearing it dissolve as it hit the floor. I cried, my tears hitting the stone floor of the temple within the pyramid. So much sorrow filled me, inside and out, and my body turned the deepest shade of blue. I felt empty inside... Like I had no more purpose in this world...
Perhaps...
I can cease their destruction....
Maybe...
I can teach them to use their powers for good....
I couldn't save my home....
Or my own family.....
Maybe I can save the rest of the world....
And if I can't, well......
What kind of goddess does that make me?...

A World Forgotten
***This story will contain lite-litrpg elements, mainly character pages and a town page. There will also be settlement building and adventuring, missteps and achievements. But one thing it definitely won’t have is a harem. Nor will it have an overpowered MC. Contains mild cursing.*** ***feel free to critique my writing and offer input. This is my first venture into writing. I've always enjoyed litrpg/gamelit books. I feel like I write how I talk, so it may be a little different. You won't hurt my feelings if you see something wrong or out of place! *** ***What follows is a condensed part of chapter 1. Enjoy!*** Drew Cooper is thrust into a new, unfamiliar world. Waking up in his sweats and t-shirt near what seems to be a forgotten path through some woods, he struggles coming to terms that he's no longer in his apartment. As he tries to cope with his new reality, he hears a horse coming down the path. He hides behind a nearby tree dreading what may happen next. As the horse approaches, he sees a man walking next to it. The horse is burdened with packs and gear. When the man nears, Drew nearly panics. He has a large sword strapped to his waist, obviously a fighter. He continues to hide as the man slowly passes only for the man to stop a dozen meters past his hiding spot. "You may as well come out, ya know. You weren't as well hidden as you thought," the man stated matter-of-factly, letting the horse’s reins go and putting his hand on the hilt of his sword. Slowly and scared for his life, Drew raised up and walked from behind the tree. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't planning on attacking you. I-I don't know where I am. I heard your horse and hid. I didn't know what you'd do if you saw me. I'm sorry," he nervously blurted out. A minute passed. Then two. The man seemed interested with Drew and stepped closer, eyes squinting as if trying to see something. "What's that on your shirt? Is that. What is that? Is that, Pac-man?" The man was visibly shaken while pointing at me. Looking down at his t-shirt nervously, "Yea. Yea. I woke up here a few hours ago I think. 3 maybe 4 hours. I’ve just been sitting here. Where am I? What's going on?" Drew asked. "That's not important right now," the man replied. " What's important is where you're from. What year is it?" "What year? April something 2020. Why? What's going on?" Drew continued now worried. The man was taken aback. After a few moments, he seemed to calm himself some. The man sighed and looked at Drew in earnest. "Well, I've got good news and bad news for ya. Bad news is you're not on Earth anymore. Good news is you happened to run into me and not someone else. You’re either really lucky, or it’s fate we met in these woods, and I don’t believe in luck." The man continued to walk towards Drew while talking and put out his hand. "I'm John Mitchell from St. Louis or thereabouts. You’ve got nothing to be scared of by me. Walk with me and let’s talk."

Personal Agency
It is better to die knowing. Listen. The world as you know it is not as you know it. It is a construction, a facade, a mural painted over the world to hide the fact that it is very broken on some fundamental levels. That there exists an entire spiritual realm, one of cognition and perception and memory and that it teems with awful life. The world was not made for us. Jacob Irwing is a fairly normal 26 year old American man. He's an amateur photographer, unmarried and does not work in his chosen field. He is also dying, right now, in the first chapter of this story. Someone has put a bullet in him. Agent Z is a fairly abnormal woman of no nationality. Her age is classified. Her name is classified. Her background? You better believe it's classified. She works for the people who hide the truth. She is going to wake up with a hole in her head in the first chapter of this story, surrounded by corpses and also by a dying fairly normal 26 year old American man. Burned and seemingly abandoned by the Agency, Agent Z has lost her memory, her security clearance and her authorisation. All that she's gained is Jacob, who is thoroughly in this shit now. Together they must work to uncover the truth, if any such thing even exists, in this erratic urban fantasy weird-fic. Updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Australian time.
