《More Than What He Seems - A Fortnite Story No.1》Chapter 1 - Before The Flood

*in my opinion, Ch2 season 2 was the best season so far, don't at me*
Shadow or Ghost?
Honestly, I don't even know who or what these 2 teams want with this once quiet island.
Starting out as E.G.O and A.L.T.E.R, they seemed to appear out of nowhere. All I really know about Shadow is their feared leader, The Chaos Agent, a mysterious and stern boss figure. I can tell, staring at the covers of posters and magazines, that they're the bad agents to stay weary of.
However, it lures my attention to the newly created Ghost Agency at the heart of the island. My good friend, Skye, an agent of Ghost, told me good things about the place. Her boss in particular intrigues me.
"What's this boss of yours like Skye?" I asked her one afternoon.
"Well, I can say he's a great boss who takes his position as leader very seriously. No one, not even me, has been able to get on his warm, softer side." She told me. "The only thing he's told his agents about it how cautious they should be. Both with their job and with him."
Interested, I peaked my hearing up as Skye warns me of her boss' bad side.
"Get on M's bad side...well, it may not end well for that person. Probably something to do with his 'curse'."
'Curse'? Now that got me asking a lot of questions.
"Anything he touches turns to gold. Although, with time, he's been able to control it... except when his temper gets a little out of hand." Skye explains, finishing off a piece of paperwork for her boss.
"Does anyone know how he got this curse of his?" I question curiously.
"Not really, no." She answers.

That's a shame. This boss, or 'M' as Skye puts it sounds like an interesting guy. Maybe he doesn't share his past with others for a reason. Perhaps he just needs someone to talk to?
"This 'M'. Do you think I'll ever meet him one day?" I smile, hopeful. Skye lets out a chuckle and a smile, patting my shoulder.
"Maybe one day...but not now."
*****************************************
It's been a few months since I've heard anything from Skye, or her other agents she's introduced me to. Meowscles, TnTina and Brutus being the main ones, but last I heard, he diverted to Shadow. I'm not sure why.
All these secret spy adventures Skye goes on, it makes me feel inspired. I'd love to work alongside her boss, going on daring missions and infiltrating the Chaos Agent's plans for island dominance.
M sounds like such a brave, fearless and careful leader, who wouldn't want to be in his Agency right now?! Well, definitely not Chaos Agent that's for sure.
Ha ha.
But...I know I could never become an agent like him or Skye. Aside from being kind and generous, I don't have the skills of an agent.
Why would the richest man on the island want a coward like me?

Location: The Agency
The Aftermath of The Device.
"Quit your crying child. You're under Shadow's rule now." A shadow henchmen dragging me away from Salty Springs mutters.
"What's your deal?! Let go of me!!" I squirm, trying to fight back with my fists.
This month has turned to absolute madness! The war of Ghost and Shadow has ended up with the Agency being blown to a crisp and a huge wall of water surrounding our once peaceful island, threatening to collapse.
Barely managing to break free of the henchman's grip, my mind races as I make a break for it:
The Agency is in ruin.
Team Ghost's agents in shambles.
What happened to Skye?
...and what of her leader? Her boss. Where is he now?

Palus Somni
It is the final days after the end of the world and you only have one month left before the last sanctuary erupts into chaos. There's a dead body hanging from a tree and cadaverous giants watch you sleep at night. The end is already here, you just don't know it yet. Now rated in the top 3% of all novels on Royal Road! Palus Somni (‘Marsh of Sleep’) is a worldbuilding webnovel about what happens when your God forsakes you. Inspired by gothic horror and mingled with British myth and folklore, join the Alucinari nuns as they struggle with day-to-day life after the world has ended. Every night when the sun sets the monstrous Gol, colossal beings with too many teeth, awaken and roam the marshlands. Only those with a faithful heart will be spared. Young acolyte Wille has never seen the walls fail, but when a fellow nun is murdered within their sanctum the very safety of the monastery is thrown into question. Did the Gol find a way to breach their defences, or is there a human traitor amongst them? The answer lies both far in the past and deep beneath the earth, through the maze of ancient catacombs. With a cast of over thirty different characters, watch as your friends and enemies spiral into inevitable madness at the hands of a callous and unforgiving world. Discover the secrets of Palus Somni through letters, diary entries and notes found scattered across the monastery. Uncover the mystery of the grotesque giants that stalk the night and bring your challenge to the Gods themselves. Each character has their own handmade pixel art, and every update includes a music recommendation for a dark atmospheric dungeon synth album that you can listen to while you read. Slice of life meets cosmic abomination: Palus Somni is a collection of intertwining stories, some chapters are stand-alone tales while others feed into the overarching narrative. It is an exploration into a community, and rather than focusing on any one character the story meanders through the convent, exposing the hopes and fears of its inhabitants. Story updates every full moon.
