《The Shy Girl And The Silent Killer》Karma From A Killer
Advertisement
Katie was trying to make sense of all this madness.
"Now that I think about it, why was ash in your room anyway?"
Everything froze as Katie remembered something ash said. He said he was promised sex from her. Sudden anger drowned her thoughts as she turned to the frantic Shadow.
"He was trying to rape me."
Katie watches realization sweep Shadow which she tried to mask with horror.
"What the fuck, that's sick!"
Katie was frozen from shock.
"He said you promised him sex from me...you planned all this..."
Shadow lost her facaed and glared at Katie.
"Ya, he was meant to fuck you and humiliate you, duh! You really thought we would invite someone like you to hang?"
Shadow laughed but Katie couldn't hear, she was swarmed with too many thoughts. They all vanished when Shadow let out a shriek. Katie looked up to see the masked man in the hall, blade dripping with fresh blood and James' head in his hand. Shadow was in hysterics at the sight. Katie just looked at him. The man who saved her, spared her, he showed her compassion. At that moment Katie knew whose side she was on. She ran forward and grabbed both of Shadows arms, holding them behind her.
"Katie! What the fuck are you doing!"
Shadow began to thrash and kick trying to get out of her grip, all while the killer drew near.
"You planned to have me raped, you will pay for your actions."
Katie stood still as Shadow struggled, she kept her eyes on the window. Watching the trees sway in the wind. When Shadows screams and movement stop Katie dropped the now lifeless body. She looked up at the man and smiled. Before either could think Katie jumped forward and hugged the massive man. It took him a moment but he returned to hug eventually. When they pulled away Katie watch him reach into a pouch on his hip and pull out her sketchbook. Katie felt tears in her eyes as she gingerly took the book

"Thank you, thank you so much! You are the best thing that's happened to me in so long."
Tears fell from her eyes as she was overwhelmed by emotion, the man hugged her again to make her feel better. After Katie calmed down she watched the man point to a page in the book. She opened it up and looked. It was horribly scratchy and messy lines. After looking for a moment Katie made out a few letters.
"J.A.S.O.N"
Katie sounded out the letters.
"Jason? Is that your name mister?"
Katie looked to the man, now called Jason, and watched him nod.
"Well it's nice to meet you, Jason, my name is Katie. I can assume you don't talk?"
He took Katie's outstretched hand and nodded as he shook it.
"Well that's alright, I'm pretty ok at reading gestures and body language."
The two sat for a while when Katie heard her stomach growl.
"Hey, do...you.....wanna make smores?"
Jason looked at Katie with a curious head tilt. This made Katie giggle, he reminded her of a puppy.
"Here I'll show you."

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.
