(Yugi's POV)
I was cleaning my grandpa's study while he was away, when I found a rusty old box with a padlock on it. "What's this?" I wondered. I looked at the part of the padlock where the key goes and noticed that the key my parents left me before they died would fit in it. I took off the necklace with my key on it and unlocked the box. Inside was an Ancient Egyptian jewelry box made of gold. I opened the golden box and saw pieces of an ancient puzzle. I quickly took the golden box and put it on my desk while placing the metal box back.
(A few hours later...)
"Yugi! Did you take my Ancient Egyptian puzzle?!" yelled my grandpa.
"Y-Yeah, G-Grandfather... I, uh, wanted to see if I could solve it..." I said, awaiting his slap as a punishment.
"You're not intelligent enough! But you can try. Just, beware. All the archeologists who found it, excluding me, died after find that Millenium Puzzle. They say it belonged to an Ancient Egyptian pharaoh that ruled Egypt with an iron fist," Grandpa replied.
"R-Really? Thanks, Grandfather!" I said with a smile on my face.
"Yugi, here's your allowance. Now, go make dinner!" Grandpa said handing me ¥600,000.
"Alright, Grandfather!" I replied, beaming.
(After dinner...)
"Grandfather, I'm going upstairs to work on the Millennium Puzzle!" I said running upstairs.
"Alright, but go to bed at a decent time!" Grandpa yelled up to me.
"I will, Grandfather!" I shouted.
I ended up working on the Puzzle until dawn, but I couldn't solve it. Luckily, I didn't have piano practice that day.

A Wish Beyond Chaos
Knights cultivate Laws to transcend mortality. They live for centuries, leading all of humanity while ceaselessly searching for the ultimate path. Mages study Runes to control creation itself. Their lives are short, but burn with unmatched radiance, leaving marks that may never fade. Roland Crescent consumes food to continue existing. He has lived for almost fifteen years without accidentally choking to death, a feat not yet committed to chronicles and song. Five years ago, at the tender age of nine, Roland suddenly stopped dreaming and instead started seeing the imminent deaths of those around him in nightly visions. Believing himself destined for greatness, he set out to become a righteous hero of justice. But as the years passed this young wannabe savior found that his duties brought him almost no discernible benefits, whereas new burdens kept piling onto his small shoulders without end. When a longtime plan’s failure ends up opening the path to several twisted opportunities, Roland might have to finally admit to himself that nobody of importance, much less fate itself, had any regards for his heroic inclinations. Slow paced, character focused story. Gets very dark at times. Basically like Lord of the Mysteries with more comedic aspects at the start. Chapters are released Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. Average chapter length is about 4000 words, with only the first vision being noticeably shorter. Have fun reading.

Shrike
He wants to play the latest and greatest VRMMORPG game, but he can't muster up the cash for the fancy new proprietary hardware and membership license. After months of saving up cash and arduous work, he has built a behemoth of a machine relying almost entirely on seedy old technology and a DIY guide by some dude named "Jimmy Bob." This is the story of his entry into the game. This is also a story of intrigue, exploration, introspection, batshit crazy game design, and unintended but entirely predictable consequences. This is G.C.O. Undergoing a total re-write, mostly because I think things were too rushed rather than any content or direction changes. If you are one of the few who tried Shrike when it was briefly updating, consider giving it another shot. Of no relation to either The Great Crusade or the recent (in 2017 lol) Shrike book for Warhammer by Games Workshop. All similarities in these cases are superficial; please don't sue me. Feedback welcome and encouraged, never be afraid to review or comment. HQ/Kindle-Grade cover art. Book Cover 2.0: "From the Dark"
